Kenneth Estrada y Santiago on SoundBetter

Let's transform your vision into a modern auditory masterpiece! For the past decade, I have specialized in creating ethereal soundscapes for genres such as shoegaze, dream pop, ambient, and noise pop. Whether you need vintage cassette mastering or daring, catchy melodies, I am here to realise what you hear in your head.

Hey, I'm Kenneth, a full-time musician, producer, and sound designer working from a cozy home studio in Berlin.

If you need a catchy lead hook or topline for your song, or someone well-versed in alternative genres like shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop, electronica, and ambient, you're in the right place. I offer services as a songwriter, sound designer, and mixing and mastering engineer.

I've been singing and playing bass, guitar, and drums for 20 years, and have a strong presence on YouTube as SHOEGAZER, where I've earned international trust in understanding and recreating sounds of well-known bands like Slowdive, Cocteau Twins, My Bloody Valentine, and The Jesus and Mary Chain.

I specialize in atmospheric guitar walls, dreamy vocals, and vintage mastering. My production services include songwriting, lyric writing, rhythm, sound, and melody crafting. I'm also skilled in acoustic and electric guitar, electric bass, synthesizers, drums, and the creative use of effects pedals. I handle vocal recording, tuning, editing, as well as final mixing and mastering.

I use Ableton Live Suite, cassette tape, analog effects pedals, and modern software plugins to create distinctive sound experiences. I'm excited to work with you to create something truly unique that excites and inspires people.

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

    Kenneth was very supportive and kind throughout the process. I felt very reassured and safe for the project. He has not only finished a project with me, but had helped me answer some questions I had too. He was very fast at mastering, with great quality. Thank you so much for all this, I’m looking forward to work with you again!

    Kenneth is an exceptionally gifted artist and mixing and mastering engineer. I could not have been more happier with the final product of all the tracks I sent to him, and he delivered with such great professionalism and great service. Rapport is an important thing for me when working with others when it comes to something as personal as creative works, and Kenneth made the whole collab really pleasant and definitely would recommend to others and work with him again!

    Kenneth is an extremely talented mixing/mastering engineer. I couldn't have been any more happier with the mix of my EP and glad to have put my trust in him to mix and master my songs. Phenomenal work, and top quality mixes delivered in a timely and professional manner. He was a pleasure working with and 10/10 would recommend and use his services again.

    Couldn't have been happier with the results and quality of Kenneth's mix on my first song. As a person who is typically a DYI kinda person, it isn't the easiest for me to trust anyone with my music, but after coming across Kenneth's work I knew I would not regret and I was right. He delivered with great professionalism and was quick to capture what I had envisioned for my song. I was extremely happy with the mix and would definitely recommend his work to other artists!

    Kenneth is a great producer and musician. He came to me with his thoughts and a clear idea of what he was looking for from me. His communication was great, thoughtful, and prompt. Revisions were easy and the whole project flowed from beginning to end. It was a pleasure Mastering a track for him and I hope to work with him again in the future.
