Elite Mastering Specialist

Been sending Dan stuff for over 10 yrs now. He offers a personal, collaborative touch which is hard to find these days and makes a massive difference.

Dan is a top notch talented mastering engineer with so much knowledge and passion for his craft. He has great energy which makes him easy and enjoyable to work with.

Dan mastered my first EP recently and it sounds amazing, far beyond my greatest expectations!
Moreover he took extensive time to guide me through the intricacies of professional mixing and created multiple master versions in order to achieve a surgical precision in enabling my vision of the finished product.
I’m now going through the process of completing my second EP with his excellent support and have learned and applied more in the last few months compared to the last seven years combined thanks to him going above and beyond mastering as standard.

Thanks very much, really appreciated!

Dan Smith is an amazing mastering engineer. I've worked with him for many years now and I am so happy with every single song he's mastered for me. Sometimes I've had crazy deadlines, but Dan has always managed to get an excellent master back even under crazy time pressure. I couldn't recommend him more and I'm excited for the next project we have lined up together.

Can't recommend Dan highly enough. Always beautiful sounding masters that go above and beyond all expectations. I really feel like he understands the sound you are going for and is infectiosuly enthusiastic about every project whilst giving great feedback which makes the process smooth and easy. Definitely fast become my go to mastering engineer for any time I need high quality, beautiful masters.

Always a solid master from Dan! Love working him, incredibly easy and great response time, and always finds time to fit me in. Love the feedback he gives, how easy it is to go back and forth if changes are needed, and he really levels up my music! 5 Stars.

Dan is one of the finest mastering engineers in the game. He even gives feedback on mixes that are over and beyond what most mastering engineers do. He will get your tracks sounding loud and dynamic. Go with Dan! It will be one of the best choices you make with your music.

Dan mastered my album and did an amazing job, made the tracks sparkle in all the right ways. He is top of my list whenever I need something mastered as I know he’s going to do an amazing job everytime.

Dan has been great to work with on my past two releases. He also took to time to share advice on how the original mixdown can be improved, ultimately resulting in a stronger master. He mad the process feel collaborative and I’m always happy with the end results.

I've had all my masters done by Dan since 2011 and they've all been amazing!

No matter how "good" I think I'm getting at the mastering process, his work always blows me away!

Have worked several times with Dan. Phenomenal engineer and true professional to work with. He has mastered two of our vinyl EPs and they sound killer.

I worked with Dan Smith on mixing and mastering a hip-hop song that I produced, and the song turned out exactly how I wanted it to sound! Communication with Dan is excellent; he maintains a 100% professional dialogue while being highly attentive to my vision of how the song should be while constantly pumping his insights and explains the important aspects during the process :) The result of the mix was amazing! He made the song sound huge, three-dimensional, and very clean, with a focus on all the smallest details. Dan has become my go-to engineer, and I hope to work with him much more.

DKS has mastered my last bunch of records and I’ve always been extremely pleased with the outcome. Sometimes I just can’t quite get the record to the finish line and Dan always helps me get there exactly the way I want to. Extremely professional, fantastic gear, fantastic ear. Highly highly recommend!

DKS has been my mastering engineer for 2 decades now and always gives me invaluable direction with my mixes and has cultivated a very personal approach to my productions. This pre-master expertise has enabled me to find the sound I'm looking for with in-depth feedback and an incredibly can-do approach to sound.

His limitless understanding of dynamics coupled with an encyclopaedic knowledge of genres give his mastering and mixdown skills an A+.

I'm sure a.i will model his back catalogue so you can have him in your pocket one day like a genie in a lamp.
