Hear your mix come together live. I'm a UK mix engineer and founder of indie label Tenderloin Music, mixing indie, alternative and singer-songwriter records in real-time streamed sessions: you hear every move as I make it and give feedback on the spot, not over days of emails.

I'm Gary, a mix and mastering engineer based in Northern Ireland and founder of Tenderloin Music, an independent label for alternative and neurodivergent artists.

My primary service is live remote mixing. Instead of sending stems and waiting days for a bounce, you join me in a real-time session: studio-quality audio streamed straight from my Logic Pro session to your headphones, with video and talkback, so you hear every EQ, compression and level change as it happens.

How it works:

1. Free 20-min discovery call: scope, references, stems
2. I prep the session solo: import, clean-up, rough balance
3. Live session (up to 90 min): we shape the mix together
4. I refine the agreed changes off-call
5. Final review call (30 min): tweaks and sign-off
6. Delivery: final mix, plus stems on request

I specialise in band-based indie and alternative, singer-songwriter and acoustic records, where the vocal and the performance matter most. I also offer live mastering and final-polish sessions.

Why hire me: you're in the room without being in the room. Decisions happen in minutes, not email threads, and you finish knowing exactly why your mix sounds the way it does. Sessions are structured, patient and judgement-free, and work well for artists who prefer clear steps over open-ended back-and-forth.

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

    Gary is an incredible instrumentalist and his production inspired ideas easily! He also came up with a strong lyric that provided the foundation for the song which again made for a really easy and enjoyable work process! I can't wait to work with him again soon!
