Martin Antonsson on SoundBetter

Want a mix that fits all kinds of spaces from stereo to atmos/binural? The way to sounding good is to have a great song, a mix that translates the feeling you are after and the vibe that takes your audience to their happy place! Working with audio for the past 18 years at companies like Spotify, I am confident I'll be delivering what you need!

Welcome to your next production, mixing and mastering engineers little spot. New to this space is Dolby Atmos! Totally immerse yourself within the music!

To get started I'd like to get to know what you want to achieve with your music! Send me your reference tracks, recorded material (with notes on bpm, bit rates etc) and don't forget to name the files of what instrument it is. It will speed up the process and I will be able to deliver CD, vinyl and streaming ready projects back.
I always search for the common path of instrumentation and melody to be able to bring forward the best parts of the song in close collaboration with you. I want to mix transparent so don't hesitate to reach out while we work together!

I have been playing in bands for as long as I remember, writing songs, being a live show audio engineer, studio engineer so my experience with this helps me have a good angle on creating professional mixes.

Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.

    Martin Antonsson Procuction - Mixing and mastering service.

    Highly highly recommended by us in Black Solstice. He took our rather basic recordings and made something new with it. And those tracks seems to be sending us away on a new interesting journey. Fast, dedicated and very easy to work with.

    The Band Convinced used Martin for mastering an old recording from 2001 that never got the proper love as it deserved. Martin took on the challange and with minimal prerequisites enhanced the songs with 30% by brighten up the overall sounds, giving it some more oumph and power. Martin delivered the work very fast, with high quality and we would highly recommend his work!

    I can highly recommend Martin at Studio 5A for mixing and mastering purposes. My band Stone Brigade worked with Martin with our latest release Madman's Paradise, and we are very satisfied with the result! Martin is also a genuinely nice guy and is very easy to work with. We will surely use Studio 5A for recording purposes again.
