I started making music when I was 15, and for the past 19 years I have worked continuously to improve my craft as a mixing engineer, producer, and musician.
Before becoming an engineer, I was an artist myself, so I understand the creative process from both sides: creating music and helping other artists bring their ideas to life. My experience as a producer and teacher has also helped me understand the challenges artists face while developing their own sound.
Sometimes the things artists consider imperfections are actually the elements that make their music unique. With experience, you learn that a great idea can be hidden behind technical limitations. My job is to help artists recognize that potential and bring it into reality.
I specialize in hip-hop and rap, with a focus on creating clear, powerful mixes while keeping the character and emotion of each track.
Typical turnaround time is 3–7 days, depending on the project. When contacting me, please include your genre, number of stems, references (if any), and any important details about your project.
I also compose original music and create soundtracks for video games and multimedia projects, including the Japanese visual novel Kidnapped Girl, available on Steam.
