His debut smash album Paranoise Void was produced by John ‘Norwood’ Fisher one of the iconic US acts Fishbone's founding fathers and mixed by the Multi Platinum Grammy Award winning team Sylvia Massy & Rich Veltrop (Tool, System of a Down, Rage Against The Machine). Grammy nominee Erick Labson (Black Eyed Peas, Lady Gaga) mastered the album.
