I've been working as a professional mixing engineer for roughly 10 years. I've worked with acts such as Apocalyptica, Wheel and Santa Cruz. I take on every new project with passion and ambition, respecting the artist's vision, and aim to make it my best so far.

Hi there! I'm Otto Halonen, a Producer & Mixing Engineer, who's dedicated to bring your song to life. With roughly 10 years of experience in the industry, I've had the privilege of collaborating with artists internationally, focusing on genres such as Rock, Pop and Metal.

Working with me, you can expect a personalized and collaborative experience from start to finish. I'll take the time to understand your artistic vision and goals, ensuring that your music gets the soundscape it deserves.
