The work that Julian has done for us is nothing short of incredible. Their attention to detail and patience throughout the process were exceptional. In fact, Julian's mix of my album surpasses those of other more expensive professionals I have worked with.

Interview with Julian Doe

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Mastering the new release of an Italian hip-hop artist, ghostwriting an album with a Texan alternative singer, a lot of editing and comping, writing a hybrid orchestral album, and helping several artists, giving them feedback about their songs before the release.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: 100% satisfaction. I want them to love the work, and I do unlimited revisions. I will start from scratch to get the best final result.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: If I can help them to get signed by a record label. Having a great song professionally mixed and mastered can definitely make a positive impression and can drastically increase your chance to be signed by a record label.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital offers more control and the ability to tune exactly the song to what the artist wants. I like the feel and art of having analog gear, but at the end of the day, I get better, faster, and more creative results in the digital domain.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Experimenting with new and unexplored solutions. Making music it's a blessing and I am thankful for that.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: Some people think that mixing and mastering are not necessary. Others think that the job of an engineer is to fix problems with the source. Mixing and mastering are processes that allow the song to stand out, without changing production.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Don't hesitate to ask questions. You don't have to be precise but you have to find a way to let the provider understand what you want. Most of the time, the root of a mistake is a misunderstanding. Also, make sure your song satisfies you. No amount of mixing can make a bad song a good one. I'm willing to work with you on your budget, I am very easy to work with!
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I have a master's degree in popular music, sound recording, mixing, and mastering. I'm working independently as an engineer from 2018
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I tend to gravitate towards big and warm results, with a vintage analog vibe.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Music is naturally open to diversity. I have had the pleasure of working with lots of great artists from all backgrounds, genres, ages, and objectives.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Singer-Songwirters, Indie-Pop, Indie-Rock, Alternative, Hip-Hop, Soul. My clients tend to largely come for my ability to blend acoustic-based recordings with virtual instruments.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening to the artist and attention to detail.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: An objective pair of ears, and ultimately, whatever supports the vision of the artist. And most importantly, I make it sound great! I try to find the core of the music and make sure it's presented in the best light.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: The first thing is to connect with the artist, understand his vision, and offer solutions to his problems. One of the first things to know is the deadline and I will immediately provide feedback for the material I've received. My work is organized into two blocks of four hours divided into two sessions of two hours. In this way, I can keep a high focus and a clear view of the project breaking down big problems into small pieces.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My setup is really simple but effective for the work I do. I believe in minimalism and that limitations force you to be more creative. I use Logic Pro, an Apple Macbook Pro, a Focusrite Saffire Pro, a Yamaha SPX 90, a selected variety of plugins from Brainworx, Waves, Plugin Alliance, Abbey Road, SSL, and libraries from Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, and Soundiron.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Musicians that had a deep influence on my artistic development are David Bowie, Prince, Radiohead, Frank Zappa, Robert Johnson, Howlin' Wolf, and Nine Inch Nails.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Mixing: Add clarity and cohesion to the song Mastering: Make the song radio ready Editing and Comping: It's all the prep work to ease the mix of an engineer.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: 1. Fender Telecaster 2. Shure SM7B 3. Apollo Twin 4. Komplete Kontrol 5. Apple Mac Studio
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Dividing the song into separate projects allows you to focus on small problems. Demo, Drum programming, production, editing, mixing, and mastering should have each its own project. In this way, It'll be easy to perfect the song and identify problems and/or mistakes.
