"I've had a truly pleasant experience with Chris. I reached out to him to program drums and do mixing for my two tracks. I sent the stems and my vocal recordings to him and within 5 days I got the final mixes. The drum lines brought a fresh energy and dynamic to the tracks, tying all the elements together and were really well-produced. Both tracks were expertly mixed, delivering a polished sound with every element shining through the mix. I've been working with Chris on a regular basis now and couldn't be happier with his delivery and results!"

Clients Feedback

“We booked a recording session with Chris to record vocals and guitar in his music studio and later hired him to produce our EP. From start to finish, Chris was incredibly helpful with shaping our EP’s sound and creative with his production choices; he was flexible and really listened to our vision while also offering feedback throughout the recording sessions. He was present and engaged, ensuring every detail was just right. His final mixes sounded exactly how we wanted. We are beyond satisfied with the results and can’t wait to work together again!"
