Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: We usually request the following data: It is necessary to send a zip folder with the following files: 1. Dry folder - export the "dry" tracks of the project (without Sidechain, Reverb and Deley), leaving only the author's effects that you would not like to change (if any are present). Also disable everything on the master channel. The total balance should not exceed 0db at the output. 2. Wet folder - disable only sidechain and disable everything on the master channel. The total balance should not exceed 0db at the output 3. Midi Folder - save the midi of all the main instruments 4. Reference folder - 1-2 reference tracks that you like in quality (and sound, if you ordered a revision) 5. Your mixed track (demo/draft version); 6. A text file with the tempo of the composition, wishes and contacts (link to any social network.network or phone number for communication) 7.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: In each song we put our knowledge, skills that have been honed over the years, and also a creative approach. Usually we request references, but sometimes we offer our vision for the track, whether it's mixing, mastering or revision, and if our view of the track coincides with the opinion of the author, then we work in this direction, and if not, then we try to understand the author's idea, his thoughts and references in more detail and work in that direction until the author starts liking it.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: Our typical process is a balanced approach to each client and their preferences. We always try not to deviate from the author's ideas, but to bring our creativity to each work performed. Our team consists of active musicians who know exactly how to make a competitive product.
