Résumé-formatted WP:BLP of a musician and record producer, not properly referenced for the purposes of passing any notability criteria. While this (deliberately?) creates the deceptive appearance that he was a Juno Award nominee in the "Projects at the Junos" section, he actually was not: a band he had worked with won a Juno Award in a category that was not Producer of the Year, while he himself was nominated for nothing and thus can't claim any Juno-derived notability freebies -- and the awards where he actually can honestly claim to have been a nominee, the Western Canadian Music Awards, are not nationally or internationally prominent enough to constitute a free pass over NMUSIC #8 if they're the only notability claim being made at all. (That is, they can be mentioned in an article that's already cleared NMUSIC in other ways — but they don't make an NMUSIC pass in and of themselves.) But the referencing here simply isn't cutting it in terms of making him notable: it's overwhelmingly too dependent on primary sources that cannot support notability at all, such as the self-published websites and Bandcamps of his own clients, while the few references that actually qualify as reliable sources are not substantively about him, but just glancingly namecheck his existence in coverage of other things. Not even one footnote here is properly supporting notability at all, and nothing stated in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to hand him an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of much better referencing than this.

 * Delete - Not seeing any significant coverage in RS. Started by an WP:SPA IP. Possible WP:AUTOBIO issues. NickCT (talk) 22:41, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Does not meet notability guidelines. Fails WP:BIO. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 22:51, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: Obviously fails the WP:GNG and the WP:COMPOSER. -- LACaliNYC ✉ 07:11, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - his only major award is a Juno, and not as a musician, and for which I can't verify -- see Juno Award for Recording Engineer of the Year. His other kudos are locally nominated. Bearian (talk) 00:11, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
