Tommy Porter Music on SoundBetter

Qualified audio engineer with 8 plus years of experience. Let me help you achieve the sound you're looking for!

Audio engineering has always been a passion of mine. I started dabbling with recording and mixing in high school. From there I continued my education at Wayne State University in Detroit Michigan where I received my bachelors degree in music production. During my time in school I had the pleasure of working with many great local and regional acts in various genres. Currently I engineer and teach out of a studio in the metro Detroit area where I continue to grow my engineering skills while helping artists achieve their desired sound. At the current moment I would say that I'm most specialized in mixing hip hop and singer songwriters, however my experience ranges from hard rock all the way to classical and jazz. I love working on new types of music and enjoy seeing an artists vision come to life. I look forward to working with you!
