Jackson Hill on SoundBetter

Hi I'm a 22 year old producer/mixing engineer with studio experience and schooling that wants to expand out and work with clients. Because I don't really have any credits I'm extremely flexible with budgets and just looking for people that would be comfortable working with someone young.

I'm offering production services in the LA area and remote mixing from anywhere. Since I have started producing and mixing I feel I have made huge leaps and bounds in terms of final results. I have interned at studios and have some schooling as well in the audio engineering field. I originally started playing guitar at 16 and went to college originally for jazz studies but pivoted to the recording world. I have a mostly worked on folk, rock, rap and electronic music. I'm looking for people with smaller budgets that are looking for someone like me who is dedicated and passionate to deliver to the best of my abilities.

Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.
