Roman Seliverstov on SoundBetter

During my career, I have worked with the world's best soloists and amazing orchestras at such legendary studios as Abbey Road (UK), AIR (UK), RAK (UK), Blackbird (USA), La Fabrique (FR)

I equally love working with big orchestral film music as a composer and with various artists as a producer-arranger. I often write songs for artists and help them with the technical aspects of recording. I have my own fully stocked studio as well as a large collection of guitars, microphones, synthesizers and other equipment.

I studied with Alan Meyerson (mix engineer "Pirates of the Caribean", "Interstellar", "Dune") and Haydn Bendall (Paul McCartney, A-Ha, Peter Gabriel, Elton John)
