A perfectionist, OD typically plays all the instruments, records
and mixes in Pro Tools, doing all the vocal production and editing
himself.
OD
has also worked with Major label artists (Atlantic Records US, Sony,
BMG) as well as indie projects (V2 Records, Urbanstar Records, Concept
Records). Hunte has spent many years working with acts producing
material and developing new artists, which ultimately has helped
to secure multi-album deals with such companies as Sony UK, BMG
and Rocafella.

done production music for film and television which is currently
being used around the world in such shows as The Osbournes, Ride
with Funk Master Flex, Las Vegas, Night and Day, Resurrection Boulevard,

Trinidad, OD moved to the UK to study and pursue music and ultimately
