The studio experience at Soundbaker is afforded with a variety of musical styles and influences ranging from acoustic rock/pop, rock to RnB, hip hop and electronica due to Rob's time spent honing his craft whilst touring overseas with A-list producers from North America and Canada.

His production technique is unique and his expertise centres around working closely with songwriters who require a 'producer's ear' to be applied to their material whilst getting the absolute best out of every project - on time and to a budget.

Situated just 10 minutes from Perth City, Soundbaker offers a modern and relaxing workspace to ensure your creative ideas reach their full potential.  The studio has a massive collection of sounds and samples to be inspired by, along with high-end equipment to capture your recordings from the source.

The studio has also worked with corporate clientele, including the composition of jingles which have featured on both TV and radio throughout Australia.
