Tremendous job, and so damn affordable! Revisions were never stalled and were always given when promised. :)

Interview with Millimeters of Mercury

Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital. If you desire analog, you can always run a digital file through an analog process. The other way around doesn't work.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: To make your song sound the best it possibly can.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Hearing what my customers bring to the table and enjoying their creativity.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: Q: Why do my vocals not sound as good as they do live? A: No matter the microphone or performer, there are effects that need to be done on a recording for a voice to sound good. EQing and reverb are two crucial ones.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That I am altering your song or providing everything -- I'm clearing the dust so that your song shines through.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What popular song would you say this song is most similar to or envision it being similar to?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Have each part of your song in a separate track. This gives us much more freedom to perfect your song.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My Roland synth, my Sennheiser headphones, my computer (obviously), mixer, and logic controller.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been writing music since I was 12, so 15 years.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Eccentric but polished EDM.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Polow. He has a very strong command of catchy riffs and strong bass.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Listen to the song on a crap speaker, like your phone. If it sounds good on that, it'll sound good anywhere.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: EDM
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Mastering
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring the pop perfection -- the flawless studio-quality sound your song needs. After my treatment, your song will be LOUD, perfectly timed, and sound enormous.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I believe what is most important is to step back and see what the artist is really trying to bring to the table. Then I work on each track of the song to perfect it. Then review what I've done. Then I'll begin creating the mixdown, and applying that picture perfect gloss.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Logic Studio, Impulse Controller, Sennheiser Monitors, Condensor Mics
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Pharrell, Polow, Bangladesh
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Mixing and mastering -- adding that enormous pop gloss to bring your song to life.
