When I have a question about my band I always try to get Nick's opinion. Be it sound engineering, mastering, live performances, business decisions, and even aesthetics, he always has a meaningful answer that is reliable and filled with experience and wisdom. Recently he mastered a remix I needed quickly and he exceeded all of my expectations. Not only was it done way ahead of schedule, it sounded amazing. He was able to pick out the parts of my song that I didn't know needed work and fixed them. He then explained why he made those changes. I will now use that insight to create better music.
