A producer / mixer based in New York City with hundreds of major label & indie credits. I've mixed for incredible vocal talents including John Legend, Barns Courtney, and Lennon Stella, and produced records for NY bands The Backfires and MS MR.
When I set out to produce or mix your music, the first step is to discuss your vision for the song. My goal is to find what's working, chip away at what isn't, and sculpt your unique sound into a song with character, impact, and lasting appeal.
If you're looking for some guidance before getting started, let's talk! I provide a 30-minute consultation to give you honest feedback *before* you invest in production or mixing.
I work from a beautiful, private studio on a quiet, tree-lined street in Brooklyn, New York. My sound is earthy, spacious, and polished yet un-hyped. I have a particular love for softer, emotional pop that borrows sounds from rock and electronic styles. A few inspirations right now are Jack Antonoff, Matthew Koma, and Finneas.
I can't wait to get started on your project. Hit that Green Button!
Send me an email through 'Contact' button above and I'll get back to you asap.

check_circleVerifiedI am over the moon with the song Chris and I finished together! Chris was patient, diligent, and a musical force. He was incredibly professional and a great presence to be around. Chris was thorough in addressing all my notes, and his creative vision helped elevate my song to a place I couldn't have imagined. At the same time, I never felt like I lost any artistic control. I can't recommend working with Chris enough, and I certainly will be working with him again.
check_circleVerifiedIt was such a joy working with Chris, he’s an absolute professional.
I couldn’t have asked for a better collaborator: brilliant, patient, meticulous, kind and supportive.
The exact type of person you need by your side when you’re making art.
check_circleVerifiedChris has got a very sensitive, creative and professional attitude. He helped me to produce a beautiful song in a very good quality. Warmly recommended!
check_circleVerifiedIt was my good fortune to find Chris Camilleri on Soundbetter. He is a kind soul who intuits what a song needs in the arrangement, and he listened carefully to what I was envisioning. I look forward to working together again.
check_circleVerifiedWorking with Chris was an absolutely incredible experience. He took the time to understand our general idea of our song and took it to the next level with his amazing talent and feeling for music.
It was also very comfortable to communicate with Chris, because he answered fast, yet very thoroughly to every input and revision we had.
You can and you should trust him with your music, it’s gonna be in very good and capable hands.
We hope that we can work with Chris again very soon.

Chris is a phenomenal producer. He's sensitive, talented, committed and thorough. I came to him with the most basic outline of a song and he took it way beyond my expectations, with patience, commitment and endless creativity. It's really all you could hope for - someone whom you can trust with a song who actually makes it so much more than what you thought it could be. On top of this, he's incredibly supportive in moments of doubt, and so easy and warm to work with. A truly great collaborator.

Chris was great to work with and did an awesome job bringing up my mix!
check_circleVerifiedWhen you have a clear vision of your song in your mind, you need to find a producer who can achieve it. But if your vision isn’t that clear to you, well, it’s the perfect way to find out if the producer you’re working with is really good or not. And again Chris succeeded in creating another beautiful final product!
check_circleVerified5 stars just isn’t enough! Where do I begin?! Chris balances patience with efficiency perfectly - he truly feels like a partner every step of the way. I had a personal issue that didn’t allow me to devote the time needed upfront with the project; not only was Chris understanding, he didn’t let that halt our momentum and was encouraging through the process.
His ear? Impeccable. He spends time upfront to understand what sound your looking for and never sways from the mark. 1000000% recommend!

There are not enough words to say what an incredible producer Chris is! After working with him on my first release, we worked together again on my second original song. All of his skills were able to make this song so epic in such a very short time! He is patient, kind, supportive, and he could perfectly understand the vision that I had in my mind. He respected the song but also improved it with his creativity bringing it to the next level!
check_circleVerifiedWorking with Chris was a real pleasure and a pleasant experience! Chris is very professional and communicates in such a way, that you feel in good hands right away! He understood our vision and gave us the confindence we looked for in a sound engineer. On top of that the mix sounded perfect, crystal clear and he put soul into this song.
I hope I can work with Chris in the future :)- check_circleVerified
I've been looking for the right sound for my first single for years. Chris was able to understand the vibe that I wanted for the song and produced it so wonderfully. He's patient, polite, supportive, so fast with revisions and the quality of his job is incredibly high. I now have the song exactly as I wanted plus better!

Interview with Chris Camilleri
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What are your goals? How can I best help you to achieve your vision? What do you like about the demo/rough mix? What could be better?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Have your goals and budget in mind before hiring anyone!
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I spent the bulk of my high school and college years playing and recording in bands, quietly perplexed by the sound of my snare drum in one recording after another. This obsession became a study for me when I landed my first studio internships in Boston. I moved to New York shortly thereafter in pursuit of tone and a career in the music business. After several years cutting my teeth as an intern and assistant, I landed a job as a staff engineer at one of the few big name studios that's still around today. And went freelance about 6 years later. I've been at it professionally for about 15 years.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Pop, somewhere in the rock direction with influences stemming from emo, softer electronic, Americana.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work in a beautiful studio in Brooklyn, with a hybrid DAW/analog system which allows me to create and sculpt sound in the most inspiring and efficient way possible.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Working with artists and young producers to transform demos into polished songs.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Above all, I bring a desire for a song to be as accessible and as engaging as possible. Every mix I do is an opportunity to capture a listener, no matter the genre.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.”
