Endorse Cosmic Trigger Audio

by Vice beats
Cosmic Trigger are my go to for mixing and mastering. Chris has an incredible ear for detail. He has a deep understanding and appreciation of music, and knows exactly what a track needs to make it perfect. I have taken tracks to him where I really wasn't sure that the track was release ready and he has turned them into something special! I have and will continue to recommend Cosmic Trigger. Great value and great quality!
