    Chad is an amazing mixer/engineer. He's mixed a track for me that landed in an Audi ad and he recorded vocals for a trailer track that landed in Terminator Dark Fate. He's very musical and brings out the best in tracks. Highly recommended!

    Chad mixes with the ears of a musician and approaches details with all the care of a technician. He always manages to make the songs I send to him better. He is a humble, confident great human to do work with. I absolutely trust him. Send him all your mixes now while he is affordable. With mixes like his, it won’t be that way for long.

    I am so incredibly pleased with Chad's mix on my recent track. First time working with him - he's professional, he's efficient, & he's really damn good. His attention to detail & ability to elevate an entire song... it's amazing. I plan to send many more tracks his way!

    Always takes my songs to the highest level. Fortunate enough to have had Chad mix 3 EP’s of my own over the past 6 years. Really appreciate the opportunity to talk through where I want to see the songs go, and to have my vision fully understood. I can always trust my songs with Chad! An absolute pleasure to work together.

    Chad is one of the only people I trust with my mixes. He’s so easy to work with, cares so much about the end product and always wants to make sure the artist loves the mix. I live in LA and have worked with him remotely on mixes numerous times now—no issues on communication or anything.

    Chad is an incredible mixer! I trust him with every song I send off to film/tv, movie trailers, ads... his attention to detail and communication are on point AND he’s just an incredible human to work with! Could not recommend more.
