Your song is great, I will make it better.

Graduated with a degree in Audio Engineering. Over the past few years I have honed in my skills as a mixing engineer. I understand the frequency spectrum well and know my plugins like the back of my hand. I understand how to balance a mix and bring life to a song while keeping the integrity of a recording.

    Where do I start, this was handled very professionally and delivered with the right sound that I was looking for. Corrected some of my low mids and highs that needed to be touched up on that I couldn't get done. Really gave my track the punch and warmth that I needed.

    Really quick and responsive producer and engineer, who has worked with me to get the perfect sound time and time again. His style matched mine in our work together which allowed for seamless workflow and products we can both be proud of.

Interview with Mendle

  1. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  2. A: digital. The new sound of todays up and coming music is all digital sounding. Digital plugins that were modeled after analog ones do a great job with just the click of a mouse. Digital is more logical and cohesive with most sessions I do day to day.

  3. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  4. A: I promise to make your music sound the best I can possibly make it sound.

  5. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  6. A: I can get easily inspired whenever I want to. I also can work from home and do everything on my computer.

  7. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  8. A: How did you get good at your instrument? - Be obsessed with an artist and try to copy them. How do I produce a song well? - Spend hours on your daw making music until you know your sounds and plugins like the back of your hand.

  9. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  10. A: What first got you into music? What are your expectations in the music industry?

  11. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  12. A: Be patient and have fun with it. I will work WITH you not for you. Together we can change the sonic landscape...

  13. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  14. A: Interface, Midi Keyboard, Monitors, Desktop, Headphones. (All the processing I need would be on my computer)

  15. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  16. A: I have doing this for about 4 years now. I went to school for audio engineering and it was not until I graduated that I thought I would want to do this for rest of my life. I hope to work with many artists and help them exploit their talents and grow as a person.

  17. Q: How would you describe your style?

  18. A: When making a song, it is quick and to the point. If something does not work, do not try and make it fit with the song. Take out the element and try something else. I have learned not to force things. If something feels forced I immediately omit it.

  19. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  20. A: An unrealistic choice would be Harry Styles. I love the production and recording on his most recent album and would love to make a record with songs as good as that, someday.

  21. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  22. A: The easiest thing you can do, when producing a song, is take advice from someone else. I have gotten great advice from many different people when working on a song. It could be the artist themselves, my roommate, girlfriend, mom or dad. Music is subjective and getting insight from everyone is a great way to simplify things and think outside the box.

  23. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  24. A: Recently I have been working Electronic music (House, Uk Garage). My musical background is in rock and singer songwriter type music so I am always keen to those genres as well.

  25. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  26. A: Creating melodies and instrumental parts of a song. I can come up with a vocal melody or a guitar part very quickly.

  27. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  28. A: I bring listenability to a song. Artist have really good ideas, I just make sure the idea is translated into a "language" everyone can understand. Whether you are listening to their song in your car or in your apartment, I make sure the emotion is translated between each medium.

  29. Q: What's your typical work process?

  30. A: When producing a song with an artist I usually like to the start the session by listening to some music. This helps to get the vibe going and keeps both of us inspired. After the vibes are good I will let the artist play a song they have brought to me or we will start to make something up on the spot. If I am mixing a song for an artist I will start by organizing my session (i.e. group all the drums, synths, vocals, bass, gtrs, etc.). I then will gain stage the tracks, edit/comp the tracks where needed, then get a rough mix and start to add processing.

  31. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  32. A: I have a sound treated room, a pair of Adam Audio t7vs as well as Rockit KRK 7s. I use a dual input UAD apollo interface and I am also subscribed to the UAD Spark. For producing I use a keystation 49 by M-Audio. The UAD spark provides me with great synths like the mini MOOG, Opal Morphing Synth, and PolyMAX synth. I use those for most songs that I work on.

  33. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  34. A: Disclosure's song breakdowns have been a huge inspiration for my production and creativity. Musically I have been influenced by guitar players such as John Mayer, Jerry Garcia, and Jimi Hendrix. A professor in college showed me Eric Valentine and his youtube videos/mix process has been a huge inspiration for me.

  35. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  36. A: I co-write, produce, mix and master songs for my clients.
