Owen Wilkes on SoundBetter

Making Music has been my passion since I started playing drums at age 8. I want to help others take there songs to the next level and make their music sound awesome! I'm great at coming up with harmonies and hooks, and taking any song and bringing it up to it's full potential. I highly enjoy mixing and want to do my best to perfect every track.

Hi! I'm Owen! I am a remote mixing engineer working from my home studio. I want to help others take their tracks to the next level and provide a service which not only gives you an amazing sounding mix but also goes the extra mile to ensure your track sounds as good as it possibly can be.

I hold a Distinction in Music Production and Technology from Northampton College where I was taught and trained in depth studio production, mixing and mastering. I'm also a musician and have been since the age of 8. I am fluent in Drums, Guitar and Bass. I'm currently working on vocal training to help with my own productions.
