A decade of Audio Engineering and Sound Design. Specializing in Ambient and Post-Rock, open to working in any genre. Looking to help your piece be the most interesting and original that it can be.
Hi, My name is Luke. I have been working with Audio Engineering and Sound Design equipment and software for the past decade, mostly recording and mixing my own experimental and ambient music and field recordings. I specialize in editing, mastering, and producing music of any genre, particularly with intricate and detailed production techniques. I also have some experience polishing and editing podcasts and audio recordings. I have used a number of DAWs (Digital Audio Workspaces) over the years, and have relied on Ableton Live as a solid foundation that I know the ins-and-outs of quite well. Looking to help your piece be the most interesting and original that it can be. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or inquiries!
