Endorse Barrett Jones- check_circleVerified
This was my second project with Barrett. I'm finding that I'm going to Barrett when I have a song that I'm not quite happy with yet but I know has some promise and I want to make an investment in it. Not only is a Barrett a great producer with a killer ear but his drumming ability is outstanding and the recording quality of the drums is outstanding as well. He's pushed me to improve and deliver a quality performance.
Looking forward to future projects. - check_circleVerified
Barrett was absolutely brilliant. Not only is he a master of his craft, but he is also a fantastic musician. His instrumental contributions were spot on and spanned the gamut of drums, bass, keyboards, guitar, and slide. Equally as important, collaborating with Barrett was a ton of fun. I felt like I was working alongside a teammate that shared my vision. All of these qualities make him an ideal producer to work with, and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Barrett's final mix-master of Ch33Ry0's song GDF turned out really GREAT! He went above and beyond. I mean he really did and we are happy to have had a Multi-Platinum Producer like Barrett Jones working on the record. Barrett is a master at his craft. My experience, his professionalism, and quality was 100. His communication was clear, he was very patient, addressed all my notes, educated me along the way, and set expectations. Thank you Barrett Jones for an exceptional mixed and mastered track.

Barrett is a total pro. He did great work and helped fully realize my vision. I had him mix and master 5 tracks which he took to other levels. He also jumped on drums, bass and guitar on a track...plus drums on another. He did such great work. He gave me recording advice that I will carry forward with me. I will use Barrett again...you should not hesitate to work with him!

Barrett is a true professional. He not only was able to help with the production, mixing, mastering of my song but laid down a killer drum and bass track down as well. He worked back and fourth with me until we had all the parts completely dialed in. I would highly recommend Barrett and look forward to working with him again.

Interview with Barrett Jones
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both! I love analog and it sounds better, but once it's in the computer it stays there.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Use the "hi pass" filter! with the exception of bass, kick drum and maybe some keyboard sounds, there is no need for any frequencies below 200hz, and will just "muddy" up a mix.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started playing in bands when I was 15, and soon after started to record myself with cassette players. I bought a 4 track Tascam tape machine in 1985 and officially opened my studio. I continue to play in bands and have been recording and producing music for 35 years.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Punk, indie, rock, bands, music...
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: My strongest skills are coming up with hooks, harmonies, and "ear candy" for songs. I also have very good strength in helping a band solidify their individual parts of a song.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: A strong understanding of what works and what doesn't. I have always been able help make any song better then it was.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I've owned and operated Laundry Room Studio since 1985. It started out as a 4 track 1/4" reel to reel studio and progressed over the years to 2" 24 track and then Protools. I'm now in my 10th location in a house in Seattle. laundryroomstudio.com
