    Joseph is a true gem and it was an absolute pleasure working with him!
    Super communicative from his first message, he sent detailed mastering notes, explained his process along the way, and took care of as many small edits as I needed to make sure my track sounded exactly the way I needed it to! He also nailed everything I asked him to change, every time 👌🏼
    I 100% recommend working with him as I certainly will many more times in the near future.
    Thanks again Joseph!

    Freeman nailed the master pretty much in the first go around. He brought all the minor details and parts of the song out and it sounds amazing. He is also very quick with communication and explaining in detail what he did to the song during his process. Definitely recommend.

    Joseph is an incredible professional with a kind, collaborative, and expert approach. We worked on one song together. He provided good and helpful feedback at each step. He clearly understood everything I wanted from the song and delivered a beautiful product. I would work with him again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Joseph!

    Joseph helped me out with a mix for a song and I am very satisfied with the result. He gave detailed feedback regarding the changes he did and the communication was super smooth. I will continue to work with Joseph on an upcoming project and I would recommend other people to do so as well!

    A legit five stars!

    Joseph is a real pro with great communication and great skills. My song landed in the "singer-songwriter" realm and he knocked it out of the park with some tasteful choices. Revisions were made in a timely fashion and only took us a couple to get the track perfect.

    A consummate pro

    We used Joseph’s services through Chris at Beckview studio’s England.
    The turnaround was extremely quick on the two master versions he worked on and the results were above what we expected.
    Over the moon with the first studio track release.
    Would thoroughly recommend Freeman mastering and we will definitely be using Joseph for future tracks.
    Thankyou, Shaun,Liam,Matt,Sam and Jonny The Deep Sea Daggers.

    I am a mixing engineer and worked with Joseph on one of my mixes. The revisions he gave me really helped me nail issues I struggled with for years. Great communicator, fast response, very confident about his skills. Needless to say the master turned out stellar. Highly recommended!!!

    Joseph is a top-tier musician, collaborator, and technician. After just one master, I have decided to never trust anyone else with my mixes. I used to just slap a master bus on my mixes and call it a day, but I now see such a clear difference in quality and performance of my songs after Joseph has worked on them. Reliable, efficient, and communicative - Joseph is the full package.

    Joseph mastered my last production and I couldn't be happier! You can tell that he puts care into his work. He did a great job, communicated well and gives helpful feedback. The artist is very happy and the release sounds great. I highly recommend working with him!

    Joseph really “got it” even down to choosing a reference track and being spot-on. Definitely elevated the mix. Excited to work with him again!

    Joseph is great to work with Very accommodating and always friendly and approachable. Absolutely love his 'can do' attitude. And the quality of his work is great. He listened to our reference tracks and got the 'feel' for the song straight away. The first tome we worked together there was a bit of back and forth to get it sounding how we liked it. Which is understandable, and nothing was too much trouble. and the effort paid off because the second track he mastered was 100% as soon as we got it back. No revisions necessary. We're very happy and would recommend Freeman Mastering highly!

Interview with Freeman Mastering

  1. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  2. A: That mastering is just about making it louder. That's definitely a component of the process, but it's more so making listening critically and making dozens of micro adjustments that ensure the track translates on all listening systems.

  3. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  4. A: Communication is key. If you don't feel like the mastering engineer, or anyone you hire remotely to work on your music, doesn't communicate clearly and effectively, doesn't manage expectations well, and isn't transparent about their process, that's a big red flag.

  5. Q: How would you describe your style?

  6. A: Fun! Mastering music full time is a dream come true, I bring joy and excitement to every project I work on. If you're passionate about the song, so am I!

  7. Q: What's your typical work process?

  8. A: I look to start every collaboration with a conversation - I want to know what your production goals are and how you hear the song in your head.

  9. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  10. A: Never cut corners during the recording process. So often artists do a haphazard job recording the tune and hope that it'll all come together during mixing. Garbage in, garbage out. During production, after you finish recording anything, constantly ask yourself - "If this was released pretty much as is, no mixing, would I be happy with it?". That's how high the bar should be.

  11. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  12. A: Communication. More than my technical chops, I know how to talk about music, production, songwriting, and mixing.

  13. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  14. A: Two of my favorite musician/producers are Sufjan Stevens and Casey Crescenzo of The Dear Hunter - I love their work and admire how hands-on they are with the process. They have a clear idea of what they want out of production before they even begin, but aren't afraid to experiment if they're inspired.

  15. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  16. A: Most frequently I mix music, usually anything that falls under the indie/singersongwriter umbrella (indie rock, alt, singersongwriter).
