Raphomet on SoundBetter

I will make your metal or rock band sound pretty close if not exactly what you are looking for! From organic to overproduced, your choice!

My name is Raphael (known as Raphomet), metal and rock music producer based in São Paulo, Brazil. Ive been making a live as a professional audio engineer by the last 7 years. Since the beginning i had the opportunity to work with manny artists from punk, to deathcore, djent, grindcore and so on. From organic to overproduced mixes, i have the ability to follow adapt myself to what my clients are looking for in terms of sound production. I think that better than give them my sound signature as a producer, i prefer to attend their goal and expectations.

Great mix, great master, great guy! Raphomet understands what makes a metal mix heavy and brought all the elements to the forefront. He was the ideal choice for an old school death metal mix! Can't wait to release it. Highly recommend him! \m/
