    Before Skool I had trouble finding someone who can get the higher quality mixes I wanted. Wasted money and time which is frustrating. Skool works with you to get what you want to the T

    He’s a phenomenal producer which helps him generate the right sound for each artist he engineer and mix for. He brings very high quality every masters he’s ever given me was industry ready. And his radio edits are dope the transition from the explicit and clean versions sound similar the record don’t loose the feeling it originally have. I’ve worked with a lot of engineers he’s one of the greats his ear for great music is elite.

  10. A: If i can make them sound like a specific artist already out. As an engineer i can do things to mimic the sonics and effects an artist may have but I can't make you sound exactly like them because we are all unique. We don't have the same voice, frequencies, control, pitch, etc. if you want to sound a certain way half of the battle is the artist when they record.

  11. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
