David Hip Nordin on SoundBetter

Hey, If you want to get the best out of your mix/master, you've come to the right place. I will not let you down and I always aim for the highest quality! My biggest strength is vocal production, I've been working side by side with a producer who was part of the Max Martin team and produced vocals for Celine Dion, Westlife and more.

A brief bio:

I'm 33 years old living in Stockholm Sweden, I've always loved sound design and that's my biggest interest. I've been in the business for 10 years, I have since then built myself 22 Studios and I now have this big community of famous artists such as Eric Turner and Garmiani housing under my roof. The studio I'm sitting in is one of the best studios in Sweden and I'm really proud of how it sounds. I'm able to hear things in here I never thought I could and that's really what differentiate me from the others. Let me put my magic on your Songs! I will not just put a random "vocal chain" on the stuff and spit out mixes to people like it was an assembly line, I will take the time every track needs to make it as perfect as I can!

Pricing:
Please contact me for pricing as it varies dependent upon each individual project. I am always happy to work with your budget, big or small!

Business aside, I absolutely love music and want to help you create something that you'll love! If you have any questions about my background, my process or how I can contribute to your project, please don't hesitate to ask!

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

  4. A: Trippz michaud is an awesome vocalist and he delivers the greatest performances

  5. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  6. A: Both! You can't beat analog when recording or reamping certain things but the convenience with digital is just so good! I'm using analog when I'm looking for that extra spice. Especially for vocals and sub bass

  7. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  8. A: You will be 100% happy with the result! I can guarantee that

  9. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  10. A: The feeling you get when you have made the last edit and it sounds amazing. The feeling when you push the speakers and it just bounces!

  11. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  12. A: How much will it cost It depends on the ambition

  21. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
