    Working with Emile on the mastering of my hard techno production was a friendly experience from start to finish. His professionalism and clear communication allowed us to work on the right direction for the track.

    The quality of his work: the master came out powerful, clean, and perfectly balanced across the spectrum. He actually managed to retain the raw energy and punch while giving the mix clarity and depth

Interview with Emile Neveu | Ōxymore

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

  2. A: I’m proud of mastering one of my own tracks that was later played by Amelie Lens during a major festival. It proved that my sound design & technical approach delivers clarity, power, and impact even on massive sound systems. Exactly what I aim to achieve for every client.

  3. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  4. A: Digital. It gives me surgical precision, full recall, and consistency, all essential for modern mastering. With the right tools and critical listening, I can achieve warmth and depth that rival any analog chain.

  5. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  6. A: My promise is to treat every track with the same care and precision as if it were my own. Delivering a master that’s loud, clear, and true to your artistic vision, every single time on time.

  7. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  8. A: What I love most is the mix of social connection and technical precision. Collaborating with artists, understanding their vision, and using my technical passion to bring it to life with clarity and power.

  11. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  12. A: I always start by asking about the artist’s reference tracks, goals for the release, and how they want their music to feel, not just sound. I also check if there’s anything specific they like or dislike in their current mix, so I can tailor the mastering to their vision.

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

  14. A: Always look for an engineer who listens first. Technical skill matters, but understanding your artistic vision is what makes the result truly work. Ask for clear communication, realistic deadlines, and examples of consistent, professional results, that’s how you’ll find the right fit.

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

  16. A: Audeze MM-500 headphones, my laptop with Ableton Live, FabFilter Pro bundle, Standard Clip, and Ozone Advanced. That’s all I need to deliver clean, powerful masters, even on a desert island.

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