Hunter Rath on SoundBetter

I'm obsessed with getting your next project sounding the way you want it to sound. My goal is to bring out the excitement in recordings and add creativity that will get people to listen.

I have mixed, recorded, and mastered projects from bands across the world. I specialize in mixing and the indie-pop genre. I have played a part in songs that have gained renown. I recorded a song that was featured in the show "Yellowstone" in 2022. I also recorded and mixed the music to a short film that is nominated for the 2021 Cannes indie short film contest. I love to mix and am infatuated with sound and the creative ways that I can make a song the best it can be.

I aim to get tracks to sound exciting and at a place where it can compete on a worldwide stage. I maintain very high standards for my work, always striving to get what sound the project dictates to come out of the speakers.

I love the process of learning and find engineering a very creative process; where things are tried and sometimes rejected, but all ideas are welcome. 

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

    Hunter is extraordinary. He gave me a beautiful mix that wildly expanded the possibilities of my track, and then very patiently worked with me as I processed all of these new possibilities and found the perfect mix (pun intended) between where I started and where he took me. The end result was a final product that was significantly more dynamic and wonderful than even I imagined at the start of the process. He's the best.

    I have had the pleasure of working with Hunter on this track. I think the value he brings is open-mindedness, not afraid to experiment, and letting what is best for the music be the deciding factor. I definitely appreciate all those factors about my experience with him.

    Hunter is an absolute gem of an engineer. Not only did he bring the track to life, but he did what only the best engineers could do which is bring out colors/textures i hadn’t heard before. Highly highly recommended for your next track!

    Second chance to review Hunter, because it's the second time I've used him. And that's fair because the first review was actually of two tracks, so he needs his greatness amplified. Please keep Hunter very busy. He is a master and deserves all the work he can handle!

    Hunter is completely amazing. I don't know how to explain it properly, but he manages to contribute to the track as an artist without changing my vision for the track in the least. It is almost like his imprint deepened my understanding of my track. He is mixing multiple tracks for me and I couldn't be happier for it!

    Great working with Hunter! I used his mixing and mastering services for a full album. He was very professional, and enhanced the sound quality greatly. Had nice additions to the songs during the mixing process without changing the vision of the songs. Highly recommend.

Interview with Hunter Rath

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

  2. A: Don't settle, we are here to materialize your vision.

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

  4. A: I gain the most inspiration primarily from three people. The first is Tchad Blake, who is a mix engineer. He is the epitome of creativity in mixing and mixed records by the Black Keys, the Arctic Monkeys, and Tom Waits. I also gain a lot of inspiration from Dave Cobb who is Nashville's hottest producer who always aims to keep things simple and grooving. The last engineer I gravitate to is of course Al Schmitt who is arguably the best recording engineer on earth and perfects records as they go into protools and not in the mix.
