    Damian it´s not only a good friend, but a great teacher, i learned a lot from him at music production school; beside he is a "killer" professional; very accurate audio perception, judgement and knowledge. I reaaly trust in his points of views about music in general. Don´t hesitate hiring Damian´s services!!!

    El trabajo con Damian es fluido y profesional. Me escuchó atentamente y se aseguró de entender mis expectativas y visión para la música. Su conocimiento técnico y su habilidad para captar el estilo y la esencia de las canciones fue impresionante.
    En cuanto a la calidad del trabajo logró un equilibrio perfecto, hizo que cada detalle sonoro se destacara de manera clara y precisa, su trabajo es realmente destacable. En resumen aporta profundidad y dimensión, sin duda alguna recomendaría a Damian en cualquier etapa de la producción musical

    5/5 Damien is a great professional. You perceive it as quickly as you start talking and working with it. He knows very well what to do at all times and how to do it.
    Also, he is a nice guy and extremely creative. Giving you advice or teaching you something is not a problem for him.
    Highly recommended :)

    Damian not only accommodated my requests in due time and form. He's very skilled and know what he is doing, I learnt some new tips from him to consider before my next project. He's also quite nice and reachable, he answered my questions without issues. I don't have any complaints. 5/5, I would recommend

    Thanks for all the help, Damian.

    Keep on carrying on, best regards

    Damián has been the mastering engineer of my band's thirteen-song album, and what a great job he has done! I'm quite impressed of how fast and yet incredibly precise he is on his matter. He works in a very natural and straightforward fashion and a brief listen is enough for him to understand what's going on in each song and determine in which direction he needs to adress the mastering session. This tells how experienced he actually is.
    He's very respectful about the music you leave in his hands, yet he'll give you honest viewpoints if needed. I absolutely recommend working with him! 😀

    Con Damián trabajamos desde el 2019 en múltiples proyectos en los cuales se desarrolló como productor e ingeniero de mezcla y excedió mis expectativas cada vez. Su profesionalismo y talento hacen que trabajar con él sea no solo súper recomendable, sino también muy disfrutable y divertido! He trabajado con otros profesionales del audio y ninguno lo supera.

    Damián es el Ingeniero que hemos elegido con nuestra banda para grabar todos nuestros discos. Es un profesional de primera línea, con mucho conocimiento, y sobre todo, con mucha empatía con los músicos a los largo de todo el proceso de grabación, lo cual resulta de suma importancia para la tranquilidad que requiere la misma. El audio que logra es impecable. Asimismo, ha producido algunas canciones y también en ese aspecto se desempeña con mucha soltura dado que tiene una gran amplitud de ideas para trabajar las canciones. Un profesional del audio y la música completo.

    Damián es el profesional más completo con el que trabajé en mi vida. Al momento de trabajar juntos y encerrarnos en el estudio no dejó ni un rincón de la canción sin recorrer, se sumergió en mi idea y la mejoró al 1000% del potencial de la canción original. No tengo dudas de que vamos a volver a trabajar juntos, cada minuto adentro del estudio con él vale oro.

    Venimos trabajando hace un tiempo en el proyecto Aukan en equipo. Damian es un excelente profesional siempre dispuesto a dialogar y a sacar lo mejor de un artista. El trabajo es fluido, respetuoso y sin traba alguna. Damian sabe generar el espacio indicado para la comodidad de los artistas y de la gente que labura, lo recomiendo fuerte. No hay idea que no se pueda llevar a cabo ni espacio de debate y creación que no se propicie.

Interview with Damián Gagliardi

  1. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  2. A: They say that I achieve miracles (sometimes lol), but in reality many forget that the most important thing is the song.If the song is catchy, it moves, it transmits sensations, that's it!

  3. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  4. A: Pay attention to the details, and do not abuse the density of instrumentation. Leave room, space, silences.

  5. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  6. A: Right now, I'm working with artists who make trap music, rap, dream pop (lana del rey style) and always some rock!

  7. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  8. A: There is nothing more important to me than the artist or producer being happy with the sound of their music.

  9. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  10. A: I always try to highlight the most significant elements of the song, seeking to enhance the sensations that are to be transmitted

  11. Q: What's your typical work process?

  12. A: Usually, I like to chat with the artist to understand what his wishes are regarding his music. Then, I load the audios in my Pro Tools, I make all the corresponding routes from my template so that my system works and voila, to work!

  13. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  14. A: My studio is a hybrid system, with the best of both worlds (analog and digital)

  15. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  16. A: I produce, rec mix and master music. Depending on the artist I work with I do one or more of these services.
