Jerome Davis on SoundBetter

Don't let all the work you've put in so far go to waste because of a bad mix!

Releasing music that sounds amateur hurts your ability to connect with new fans and drastically limits your total streams on digital streaming platforms. If you want to make an impact with your next release, allow me to transform your recordings into something that sounds more like your favorite influences.

Endorse Jerome Davis

by Helena Fondeur
Making a hit track is not an easy task, collaboration is the answer in most cases and a talented analog master is key. What you have found is an amazing upcoming professional who can mix and remake your ideas into gold. Jerome has not only mastered but is becoming a leading producer in his field. My recommendation for Jerome is stellar!

by Shapat Thayak
It's a "clear difference" in how your track sounds, not knowing how muddy it sounds, until its been masterered by JDavis. It's so clear that you can spot flaws in how you recorded. Record it in his studio, if possible and really hear yourself.

Interview with Jerome Davis

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: How fast can you turnaround my song? I typically like to ask for the need date and work backwards from there.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I always listen first and provide as much detailed feedback as I can, so everyone involved knows what the expectations and targets are for a particular project.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I typically work on singles an artist or producer wants to release within the next 2-3 months.
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I mixed and mastered a 20-song catalog for a publishing company so they could pitch their artists to music supervisors for tv and advertising placements.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog gear because of it's sonic character.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I promise to help your music connect to the widest audience possible.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That mixing or mastering can fix the issues with low-quality productions or recordings. Sometimes you have to go back to those stages to get the best output in the end.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Laptop, Headphones, a Cellphone, USB-Powered Interface, and USB-Powered Hard Drive.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I got started in 2009 as a small town artist with little resources. I quickly became more interested in production and engineering techniques, so I got my start by mixing mastering small projects for other artists in the area.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Less is more... If it doesn't make the song's emotion more apparent, it shouldn't be done.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My analog mastering chain features over $15K worth gear including the Bettermaker EQ, Mastering Compressor, and Mastering Limiter.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I'm always producing short-form instrumental hip-hop for sync licensing opportunities.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: William Bowser @ Quality Touch is also a world-class mix engineer!
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: The early opportunity to see/hear the creative work someone is about to share with the world.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What are the mediums your project will be distributed through?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Try to have a clear vision for your music before we start. Musical references go a long way in minimizing revisions.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Stormzy. I’ve been a fan of his since he broke into the UK Grime scene and I like the diversity of music he’s created as a mainstream artist.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: A lot of Hip-Hop/R&B, Electronic, and Pop.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Over 10 years of production experience and a bias towards subtle support. I don't want to do something to your music just because I have a tool for it.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Leslie Brathwaite, Bob Katz, and Emily Lazar
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Every song has to have a focus. Once that's decided, everything else should support it.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I'm a people person, so relationships are important for me to develop and preserve.
