Why Hire Me? I’m both a musician like you and a skilled audio engineer. I understand your needs, the artist lifestyle and I understand the disappointment of bad studio sessions and wack mixes. In my younger days I found myself in the studio as an artist with engineers that made me think “I can do this better.” Turns out I was correct and I use my skills to keep other artists from having to express their art in front of apathetic, unskilled and musically uneducated technicians. I provide a positive, patient, energetic and fun atmosphere in-session and I bring an understanding of musicianship and emotional connection to mixes. Feel good music is the mantra every step of the way. If I take on your project, I’m invested in making it sound great and I’ve never flaked on a commitment or missed a deadline. Once we’ve got your vibe captured, my mixing and mastering skills will leave you with a final product that balances your unique sound with a sound competitive with top-charting songs and albums. I know my methods can work for you because my productions and mixes have garnered millions of streams & video views worldwide, have charted on iTunes & Bandcamp stores, and have been covered by outlets like MTV, Complex, XXL, Pigeons & Planes, Chicago Sun-Times and more. My productions and backing track work have been performed at festivals & venues across the US, Canada and Costa Rica. production and mixing credits include names such as: Saba, Chance the Rapper, Action Bronson, Twista, Lil Dicky, The Palmer Squares, ProbCause, Griz, Gramatik, CYN, Gangsta Boo from Three 6 Mafia, Watsky, Merkules, Strange Music Artists Joey Cool & UBI, Nico Segal FKA Donnie Trumpet
