I want to feel something when I’m mixing music - and that’s how I’d like to mix your music, too.
My Mixing Philosophy
As a mix artist, I love working with musical performances. My passion is bringing out the human element and emotion in your music.
When mixing, I play the mixer like a musical instrument. My mixing style involves a lot of fader rides and automation passes. In my art, the faders are my instrument. I close my eyes, sense the musical intention and perform my mix while blending musical excitement.
My mixing-art enriches the musical art of others. I get excited about beautiful imperfections and I love musical takes that tell me something about the performer's personality.
I am passionate about collaborating with musicians and artists.
And I'd like to help you get your music out to your fans and listeners - sounding the best it can.
