I worked with Lou and hired him to mix and master my debut EP, and I would absolutely recommend him!

His attention to detail and technical skill with audio engineering/mixing is fantastic, and he is very effective and accurate when making alterations based on feedback. He was also extremely timely with his services, and is an all-around great person with an excellent ability to connect with the client. I've never heard my mixes with as much clarity and quality before working with Louis.

I have been working with Lou for over a year and he is a force to be reckoned with. He is an amazing and talented all around producer and multi instrumentalist on top of being a kind and considerate human!
He is adaptable and easy going, non judgemental but honest in what he hears. He is my go to for soulful track production and mixing. We have done over 10 tracks together so far! Hire louis!!!

Louis is hands down one of the most talented mix and recording engineers I have ever met and his production is brilliant. He truly connects with his clients, he works quickly and professionally, and his music always moves people whether it's a soul joint, a pop smash, or some heavy hitting hip hop. He's legit!

I've been working with Lou for the last 10 months. I began very lost and unsure of myself and my music. Now, I know that Lou saw potential in me that I didn't see myself. He's provided tremendous direction and support as a friend, producer, and engineer. He understands music but more importantly, people. I highly recommend working with Lou if you want results and to move forward with your music.
