Every song has something unique.
Good mixing isn't simply about making a song louder or brighter.
It's about finding the right balance, giving every element its place, and revealing what makes a song special.
That search is what guides my work.

About
Music has always been about feeling.
Music has been part of my life for a long time. As a guitarist, singer and songwriter, I've spent years exploring different musical worlds — writing, recording and working on sound.
That experience as a musician directly shapes the way I mix.
I love voices that breathe, instruments that keep their character, arrangements that naturally find their place, and songs that keep something alive.
To me, a good mix shouldn't turn a song into something it isn't. It should reveal the best of what it already is.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What files should I send?
For mixing: separate tracks in WAV or AIFF, all exported from the same start point, at the project's original resolution and with no processing on the master bus. A rough mix and your references are very welcome. For mastering: your final stereo mix, with no limiter on the master bus.
Which audio formats do you accept?
WAV and AIFF, ideally 24-bit or higher, at the project's sample rate. MP3s are fine for references, but not for mixing or mastering work.
How long does a mix take?
It depends on the number of tracks, the complexity of the song and the current schedule. You get an indicative turnaround as soon as the files arrive, before any commitment.
How many revisions can I ask for?
Revisions are planned so we can refine the result together. The exact number is stated in the quote, depending on the service.
Can I send reference tracks?
Yes — it's actually recommended: two or three songs whose sound you love help me understand the direction you're after.
Can I get an instrumental version?
Yes. Instrumental or a cappella versions can be prepared on request; mention it in your message so they're included in the quote.
Which files will I receive?
Usually a high-resolution WAV file and an MP3 version for listening. The exact formats are adapted to your needs and release platforms.
Do you work remotely?
Yes. Everything happens online: files sent via download link, conversations by message or video call, versions reviewed remotely.
How does payment work?
Payment terms are set out in the quote, before any work begins. Nothing is committed without your agreement.
