Sorry, no grammy-nomination yet, but I'm pretty sure we can get your song there.
Hi,
my name is Axel, I studied Jazz-guitar at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Stuttgart and then filmscoring and sounddesign at the Film Academy Baden-Württemberg in Ludwigsburg.
I have my own studio since 15 years, in wich I worked on hundreds of projects, including compositions and mixing for TV, cinema and advertising.
I'd love to work with Indie-Bands or electronic acts. I have a lot of vintage gear, but my main goal, is to get a punchy sound, that's modern not old-fashioned.
I don't have any ratings here yet, so I'm wiling to mix the first 5 songs for 100$ each.
I can do some guitar recording as well, if you wish. I have vintage Fender/Marshall amps and a great selection of electric and acoustic guitars plus some nice vintage Neumann mics.
Click the 'Contact' above to get in touch. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: Oh... there are a few... Nigel Godrich, Andy Wallace, Rick Rubin.
