Garrett Wolfston on SoundBetter

Prominent producer and mixer in LA. I have worked with PTAF, the creators of the hit song boss ass bitch, as well as different youtube stars. I learned working with these artists how to develop a well polished, radio ready sound from start to finish. I promise to deliver this sound to your mix. It will sound great on every stereo system guaranteed.

I used to hire mixers through these websites, but I realized I was giving my own mixes more time and attention to detail. My mixes were turning out better than the people I hired from. I caught mixers neglecting to do car tests and failing to find the MEANING behind the song. While every production is different, most productions have instruments that are meant to be felt and not heard. I've seen mixers turn every instrument up as LOUD as possible. Are you really capturing the producer's original goal by doing that? I don't just do this as my job. I do this as my passion. I am passionate about giving you the BEST. I will make sure the bass sits just right on every stereo you play your song on. You aren't just another client worth 200 dollars to me. I am leaving my artistic mark on your song, and I make sure that its the best.

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My laptop (I'm assuming with that my DAW, plugins and everything associated with that laptop), microphone preamp, microphone so I can record and remix all the desert island sounds, My speakers, and my headphones.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started playing trumpet and piano at a young age. I walked into my first trumpet lesson and I remember my teacher jumped out of his chair because I was able to accurately name any pitch he sang for me. I loved jazz in middle/ high school, and toured around the northwest in a traveling jazz band. In high school I delved into music production and fell in love with it. After high school I moved to LA and started producing music professionally.

Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I like to work quickly. Typically I create 2-3 full records a day, some days 10. In this industry, you need to work fast. When an artist is inspired, there is a time fuse to harness that inspiration and create a compelling idea. I want to make sure that the song never overtakes the artist, and that the artist is always the most important instrument.
