With over 20 years of experience as a mastering engineer, I will deliver professional sounding masters, adding polish, warmth, and punch to your mix, as well as providing high quality audio files ready to upload to streaming services.

Hi, I'm Mark! I've worked with major labels and award winning artists, as well as many local and underground artists. No matter where you are in your career, I will be able to enhance your mix with a professional master that brings out the best in your song. I have experience with a variety of genres, such as Pop, Hip-Hop, etc.

I also have specialty with audio restoration; I can bring back life into a dull and low quality mix with the use of harmonic excitation and many of my specialized techniques in stereo mastering. With my knowledge and expertise, I am able to improve the quality of older recordings and low resolution music where the original project or stems are unable to be accessed.

I can work remotely with you to provide an excellent master for your project as soon as possible.

    Would 10/10 recommend! Not only does Mark have good ears, but he tries to understand your song and your goals to create a master that you enjoy listening to. I was originally thinking about not spending the money to get my song mastered, but now that I have had this experience with Mark I will definitely be coming back.

    Mark's masters are very professional sounding, they are very crisp and balanced in comparison to the original mix. They also sound much fuller and much higher quality - will surely work with him again!

  2. A: I work on a wide variety of music, but I am specialized with Pop, Hip-Hop, and many more genres.

  3. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  4. A: Although I have expertise in many skills during mastering, one of my strongest skills are in perfecting the stereo space of your mix. If done incorrectly, the mix will lack fullness and the power it needs.

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

  8. A: I am working on new projects every single day.
