My goal is simply to understand your creative vision and be able to bring that to life through your music.
I studied at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music and received a First Class BA (Hons) in Music Production and now run my own studio 'Apocalypse Studios' in the island of Guernsey. I also teach guitar and audio production to over fifty students every week through a local music school. I have a wealth of experience from working both locally in the UK with various clients and bands and have built a reputable portfolio for both audio and visual production work. My key strengths include thoroughness and attention to detail, which is what I believe makes me a great mix engineer.
I love most styles of music, but the genres I really specialise in are rock, metal, pop and acoustic singer/songwriter. Services include anything audio related such as; drum editing, vocal tuning, mixing, mastering, creating stems for backing tracks.
My primary goal is to make sure that you, the client, is 100% happy with the final product. I think its super important to really understand what you're aiming for and for me to be able to visualise that to be able to reach that final end result. I take pride in knowing that whatever is required, the customer is always going to end up satisfied.

Interview with Mikey Ferbrache
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital - it's how I've grown up with music production and it makes sense and works for me. 99.99% of people could never tell the difference in the final result regardless!
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Please please please if you have any queries or want to know ANYTHING or are unsure about something, just ask. I'm more than happy to advise and help out where I can.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Ariana Grande - she's an incredible vocalist and I imagine coming up with and tracking harmonies and extra vocals would be brilliant.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Reference material is key. Listen to music in similar styles to assess how your mix is sounding in comparison. It's a great way to know what to aim for and to reset your ears after a long mixing session.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Completely in the box. Quick and efficient. Pro Tools and Logic Pro. Waves, Soundtoys, Izotope.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Chris Lord Alge Dan Lancaster Michael 'Elvis' Baskette
