Absolutely amazing Mixer. We hired a mixing engineer who didn't really specialize in heavier music and were sorely disappointed. Justin took our raw tracks and turned the song into an absolute beast. Everyone was blown away with how great it sounded. Would 100% recommend him for future productions.
