What I do

Seven services.

Pick what your project needs — or hire the lot. Twenty-five years of records, every record gets the same conviction.

Service 01

Mixing.

The core of what I do. A creative pass that takes the artist's vision past "good" and into this is a hit. Fast turnarounds, radio-ready, every record gets the same conviction.

Mixing is a creative process for me. I deal with the technical challenges of the recording, but the real fun starts when I take an artist or producer's sonic vision and move it forward. My focus is serving the music — bringing out the hidden magic, highlighting the lyrics, and making it sound like a hit.

Demo mixes are a thing of the past. Whether I'm mixing something pitched to a label or already slated as the album single, I approach each track with the same conviction: this song must be a smash.

Every song has its own requirements, strengths, and weaknesses — I address them all so it sounds amazing. The fact that my clients come back again and again means something is going right.

Mastering.

Final polish for streaming, radio, vinyl, and physical. Stereo or stem mastering, sequencing, gap timing, DDP / Master CD on request.

You've invested heart, soul, and resources. The mix sounds amazing — but you need that final polish for streaming, radio, and downloads. I've mastered hundreds of songs for indie and major artists, balancing frequencies and volumes between tracks and solving sonic challenges with the two-track mix.

Stem mastering is also available — instead of a single stereo print, you send 4–8 grouped stems (drums, bass, vocals, etc.) and I shape each group independently for tighter low-end, more clarity in the vocal, and a more open stereo image. It's the right call when the mix is 90% there but needs surgical control on the master, or when the final master has to translate at competitive level without squashing the dynamics.

I'll also help with sequencing and gap timing — that timing makes all the difference to how an album is experienced. For physical CDs I provide a DDP file or Master CD ready for the manufacturer.

Service 03

Atmos Mix & Master.

Immersive mixes for Apple Music, Tidal, and Amazon. Whether the goal is to push the boundaries of immersive audio or honor the stereo classic the fans already love — taste makes the call.

Dolby Atmos is one of the most exciting developments in audio in recent years. Whether your fans have a full Atmos system or simple earbuds, immersive audio transforms the experience. Apple Music, Tidal, and Amazon have all adopted it — it's quickly becoming the standard.

Whether the goal is to push the boundaries of what's possible or simply create a faithful representation of the stereo mix fans know and love, I've got you covered. Knowing when to push and when to honor what's familiar is a question of taste — and that taste is one of the main reasons clients keep coming back.

Service 04

Vocal Production.

50+ American Idol singles. Artists hire me when the vocal has to land. Comp · edit · tune · time.

There is no greater joy than working with an amazing vocalist. I've done vocal production for A-list artists and for soundtracks across television and film — including American Idol. My first goal in the studio is to break the ice, make the artist comfortable, and get them out of their own way.

I assess strengths quickly. I can tell when a singer has peaked and when there's more to give. I handle the vocal process all the way through — comping, editing, tuning, and timing — so the final track shines.

Service 05

Music Production.

From acoustic-and-voice demos to fully realized records. The right musicians, the right vision, the right room.

Artists come to me to bring their songs to life. Sometimes it's an acoustic guitar and a voice. That's where I meet them, and together we create something that exceeds expectations. By bringing in the right musicians, the right vision, and a clear path to where the song should live, I help artists craft musical creations into something incredible.

Service 06

Recording.

Where it started for me. NYC jazz rooms, then pop. Phase & space matter. Works in studios, project rooms, and homes.

This is where it all began. Recording was my first love — I cut my teeth tracking jazz musicians in NYC. Today my chops are used for pop, rock, and urban records. My recordings are often complimented for the big, open sound — most engineers don't focus on phase and space; I do, and the results speak for themselves.

Project rooms and home setups are routine — I assess the space and technical requirements, help procure the right equipment, dial in the sounds, and capture great mic positions.

Consultation.

Mix critiques. Studio & technical hurdles. Career strategy. 25 years on every side of the industry — distilled into a 1-on-1 session that pays for itself.

Looking for someone to critique your mix process? Get over a technical hurdle? Need 1-on-1 time with a pro who'll give you the honest truth? I've consulted for artists, engineers, labels, studios, and managers worldwide — from emergency technical assistance with sessions in India, to mix advice in Italy, to music business strategy in LA.

Beyond creative work, there's a wealth of technical and business knowledge from 25+ years and several businesses I've built from the ground up. Honest perspective. Forward-thinking solutions.
