I specialize in Rock, Metal, and Punk. Distribution-specific mastering; 48-hour turn-around. I'd be thrilled to take your recordings to the next level.
A graduate of the 2011 Recording Arts program at Powersound Recording Studios in Edmonton, I've been working on metal music ever since - recording, mixing, and mastering for all the bands I've performed in. In May 2019, I started offering a professional mixing and mastering service.
I'd best describe my style as an homage to old-school metal, I love to make use of analog-style plugins to create saturated soundscapes that would feel at home in the 80s and 90s.
What is Distribution Specific Mastering?
It is the process of creating multiple masters of your music to ensure that you have optimal versions for different distribution platforms.
Since streaming platforms normalize audio to quieter levels, there is no reason to submit a louder/more compressed master to them. You can submit a less compressed master that has more dynamics!
I also offer track editing, time alignment, vocal comping, etc. I'm also open to working in other genres besides metal and rock, I've worked with several country artists. Vocal and DI recordings for guitar and bass are also available.
