THE PORTFOLIO
Experience in Audio & Music!
I'm Vasilis(Vas) Papageorgakopoulos. I am currently based in London, UK. I have experience in audio and music since 2005. I have recorded label and self-financed releases and helped fellow musicians with their vision providing production expertise and guidance through the process.
I am proud of being member of the Hardcore Music Studio community. I have worked with Jordan Valeriote (Auras, Intervals, Silverstein, Nick Johnston) and the team to develop my mixing and audio engineering skills further. I have also completed one year of Sound Engineering & Music Production and Mixing & Mastering at Morley College, London, UK. Last but not least, I have attended one year of Acoustic Design and Digital Sound (MSc Level) at the Hellenic Open University.
I have spent a fair amount of time in studios, assisting or recording albums for my personal projects and various bands. I have recently released my band's debut album (Hilltops Are For Dreamers-In Disbelief via an Italian Record label, achieving global recognition and distribution around the world.
CLIENTS
Yeah, Nevermind
I can honestly say that working with Hilltops Recordings was instrumental in getting my debut EP finished and released. Vas was able to help me take vague ideas and turn them into complete songs, adding lots of little details that resulted in an amazing finished product. He also helped with the actual guitar playing and joined me in the studio when I was recording vocals to give me ideas and feedback. There is a chance that I would’ve been able to finish the EP by myself, but it wouldn’t have been nearly as good if it wasn’t for his assistance. I’m definitely working with him again in the future!

Spirtokouto (Greek rock band)
A really exciting collaboration from day one! We sent Vas just few chords and the vocal melody, and he made it into a full produced radio friendly track. Vas arranged, recorded and mixed the song from scratch. He provided a great, catchy and easy listening sound to our music, something that we have never experienced with other producers in the past. Totally recommended! You should try Hilltops Recordings! Click the image and listen to the song on Spotify!
