Mastering music goes far beyond making your record louder. It enhances the feel, focuses the sonics, and assures you that your record is ready for release!
My name is Yukon and I have a ton of experience making records. And in mastering I take an objective listen to your record, identify its strengths and intentions, and then use my ears and the setup to ensure it is right for the audience.
At Blue Oak Mastering my goal is not to change what you’ve done, but bring it to life!

Yukon was great. The quality of the master I received from him was the best I've ever heard. He sonically glued in my mix and gave it pristine clarity. He easily controlled problematic frequencies without compromising the track. This song sounds exactly the way it is supposed to thanks to his details. I recommend him for any serious artists wanting a true professional sound and I will be going to him for more of my tracks as well.

Quality work! Communicative and friendly. Yukon is extremely receptive to artist feedback and gets any needed changes done quickly (even though most of our tracks were perfect on the first pass). He's a pro at capturing different vibes and the inherent energy in a song and at the same time bringing an industry polish to each track. Highly recommend!

Wow, this was quick and straight to the point! No revisions necessary - Yukon got the perfect sound on the first one. Great communication, professional delivery - I will be back for sure!

I sent Yukon a track that was less than stellar ( a dog). A pushed in the corner situation. Too late for a remix. Track was harsh, boomy and distorted in places. I don’t know what he did but you could AB it against legit rock tracks and it would stand its own ground toe to toe ! If you have a stellar mix, of course Yukon is gonna knock it out of the park.Duuhh! But if you have a problematic track that needs tending to, Yukon may able to bring it to a new height. “ frequency wizardry “.

I can't say enough about how great the mastering process has been with Yukon. Of course he makes the music sound great on all platforms - but having his ear as a second opinion is invaluable. I can be particular about small details and was so pleased to see so is he! Thanks Yukon, I'll hire you again for our next project.

Interview with Yukon at Blue Oak Mastering
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I have been lucky to work with a number of legendary engineers and producers and am most inspired by Alan Parsons. He is friendly, respectful and a professional gentleman. He is an amazing musician and has an ear that can't be beat. I have incorporated more from working with him into my technique than any other mentor I've had.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I most commonly do Mastering for my clients. I am also confident in my mixing and recording abilities and love working on most any part of a record.
