@taco5kDeep male voice | English & Arabic narration | True crime & documentary
Deep male voice working in English and Arabic - both Iraqi dialect and Modern Standard.
Narration is my home ground. I run my own true crime channels in both languages, so I'm practiced at what narration actually asks for: pacing, breath control, and a tone that stays steady all the way through a piece. My published work runs 2-3 minutes per piece. I'm comfortable with longer sessions and happy to record a longer test read if that's what your project needs.
I've also voiced commercial spots, including a campaign for a well-known brand.
Home studio. Clean 48kHz WAV, noise-free, consistent levels, edited and ready to drop into your timeline. Fast turnaround, revisions included, and I'm easy to direct.

Narration is what I'm here for: audio dramas, true crime and documentary series, audiobooks and sample chapters, explainers, e-learning, and anything that needs a deep voice to carry a story.
My published pieces run 2-3 minutes each. I'm set up for longer sessions and glad to record a longer test read so you can hear how the voice holds up across a full script.
I also work in Arabic - native Iraqi dialect and Modern Standard - which is rare here. If you're localising a project into Arabic, or want the same script recorded in both English and Arabic, message me and I'll quote the pair together.
I'm open to paid work of any size, and to unpaid audio dramas where I get a credit and written permission to use the clip in my portfolio.
Long term I'm building an international narration career alongside commercial work in Iraq, so I'm looking for projects I can commit to properly rather than one-off reads.
Send me a few lines of your actual script and I'll record them free, so you can hear your project in my voice before you decide.
