Mixing | Mastering
Ever since I started mixing music in 2004, I've been asking myself how I can help other creatives and make the world a better place. During this time I have gained expertise in recording, mixing and mastering, helping bands to realise their vision – in stereo. The work I do is based on a few very simple principles:
transparency
emotion
clarity
vision of the artist
These principles are and will remain part of what I achieve in my work. But times are changing. Streaming services, higher internet bandwidth, algorhythms, 3D music with Dolby Atmos and metadata are here. We need to be aware of these changes and challenge ourselves to learn the new skills needed to keep up with the times, even if it makes us uncomfortable.
Progress waits for no-one. Don't be afraid to push yourself. It's critical that you stay relevant.
I don't mix music for seasons, I create for the next generation audio.
When something isn't perfect, I improve it.
When something is boring, I make it fascinating.
My definition of progress is a natural feeling sound experience.
Build on knowledge that will stand the test of time.
Both visionary and emotionally.
I envision a world full of vibrant music.
Music with fewer restrictions, fewer compromises, but more joy and freedom.
My ambition is to bring out the natural sound of an instrument, and I focus my work in that direction. I try to make everything sound natural, with the one condition that it has to fit together in the end. I think of it as a jigsaw puzzle with several layers. So I just put things in the right place.
