Thanks again Samuel! Such a great job. Samuel can find the right focus by editing and also remixing a little our song. The song is now just as good as it can be.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Im working an a local band.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That mixing will make poor quality tracks sound great, you can make it sound good enough but not great.

A: Plugins, MacBook Pro, genelec speakers and my DAW
