Mixing, Mastering, Production

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: My latest project is my alternative YouTube beatmaker channel called DEATHLESS Beats and I am really proud of it because for about 4 months I managed to develop it better than my older channel which was more than 10 years. I created 100+ instrumentals with a lot of traction and with improved sound after each one - all of them with a lot of feedback and impressions from people all over the world.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: A separate cinematic instrumental project.

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

A: Personally, not, I do not know anyone, but Mixing, Mastering and Production is a sweet science, so if someone has many satisfied customers and achievements, then it is not possible to not recommend them, depending on your style of course.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Digital, because currently I cannot afford Analog. However, I pray that one day I will be. I really love all the knobs and buttons and of course, most importantly, the liveliness that analog gear brings to sound.

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: The Freedom and the purpose.

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A: They are often interested about the turnaround. Usually, I work quite quickly, because I just love it and can't help giving all of my attention as soon as possible. Of course this comes together with some natural rest, so that I can make the best decision for my production, but in total my turnaround would be 24-48 hrs.

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

A: You tell me, hehe.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: No questions asked. If you are serious about your process and you have chosen me, then it would be impossible to not just blend in and bond.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: I cannot see my own back, but I am a very disciplined multi-faceted individual with a hard-working character. If you are looking for a professional and humane attitude, then let's get linked up! My life has changed for the better and keeps on doing so ONLY because of music - the people I've met, the communities that I'm part of, the places I've seen, the wounds I've healed - I owe all that solely to music.

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

A: Yamaha HS8 - that's all xD

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: It all started in a small home set-up with a USB microphone and an old PC with some counterfeit Adobe Audition and some FL Studio.~ 12 years and ~ thousands of projects later, this has grown to the biggest love of my life.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: Dark, Engulfing and Impactful

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: I have been a musical nerd for as long as I can remember myself. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of artists across many genres that I absolutely dream working with.

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
