Abe is the man! He did an awesome job mixing one of my songs and was super easy to communicate with. It was the best dynamic I've had working with a professional mixer. Very patient with any of my annoying requests for little tweaks, and I will most definitely be hitting him up when I have some more songs to be mixed.
Thanks Abe!

Fantastic experience and communication throughout!
A pleasure working with Abe and highly recommend him to anyone looking to bring their song up to professional level standards. - check_circleVerified
Working with Abe was great! First of all it started with a phone call. In that way he could really get to know me and what I am planning to do or what my vision for the song was.
He explained everything and I started understanding the process. After the phone call I was convinced, that Abe is the ideal mixer for this project. Today I got the end result and I can´t believe how well it turned out!! I am so happy, that I found my producer for the future!
Interview with Abe Stewart
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: Recently I mixed many of the songs on Michael Franti's new album, "Big Big Love."
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Michael Franti "Big Big Love" album
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Adam Neilson, Blake Bunzel, Justin Kastner
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Hybrid.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: "How many revisions will you do?" That is a case by case answer. Ultimately we are gonna go until you are happy....but a .3db increase on the snare, on revision 345, will not make or break the song. Overthinking is dangerous!
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: One mixer is not equal to another and having ten different guys mix your song will result in very different sounds. Find your guy and stick to him. I bring customer service, modern sound and a vocal that will be loud, controlled and in your face.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: 15+ years. I grew up in a musical family, built my chops in LA, and i'm very grateful to have found success relatively quickly.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Hiphop, Trap, RnB, Pop and Latin.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: A seasoned, but modern taste. I've put in my 10,000 hours, but I've also developed my flavor. I strive for a clean, loud, modern mix. I know how to get there and I'm confident I can with your song.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: First thing is to communicate with the you. I am assisting your vision. Technically: Get the mix balance right, take breaks and be deliberate with mix decisions.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Mixing in Hiphop, Trap, RnB, Pop and Latin.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Is the production done? A mix does not fix poor production. Make sure you are set and happy with all the recording, editing and production. Mixing will elevate, not fix.

A: I will not cut corners. We will get it 'there'
Q: What do you like most about your job?
