I am THE recommended mix and master engineer from Grammy winners and nominees such as Zedd, Haywyre, Ian Prince, and SMLE.

Zedd: I love Dillon’s mixes, his incredibly creative and unique approach to production. His sounds are always super clean and well-mixed

Haywyre: “Dillon has earned a reputation as a high-caliber engineer in the EDM world. His ambition to grow as a producer has resulted in details like crisp drum transients and carefully crafted spatial sound placements becoming staples in his work.

My productions, mixes, and masters have been signed under Interscope, Geffen, Monstercat, Armada, Proximity, Spinnin, Heldeep, Mau5trap, Insomniac, Night Bass, Dim Mak, and Confession just to name a few!
