John Kutkowski on SoundBetter

I am a dedicated music and audio professional with 20 years of experience as a mix and mastering engineer. I would love the opportunity to work on your project. While I am available for direct hire on a per-song basis, I also often work on a percentage-of-sales No up-front charge. My passion for sound drives to delivering exceptional results.

I offer two options: you can hire me on a per-song basis, or, in many cases, I work on a percentage-of-sales arrangement, with no upfront cost. It's a win-win with no risk for you.

However, it’s important to note that I only invest my time and energy in projects that I believe have high-quality music and the possibility to be successful for obvious reasons. My expertise lies in rock, alternative, hard rock, metal, and pop rock genres, so I would be particularly interested in projects within these styles. I take about a day and half to complete one song as there is much attention to detail.

I’m a graduate of the Five Towns School of Music on Long Island and have a diverse background that includes touring as a musician early in my career. I started as a studio engineer and tape editor, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with Grammy-winning artists in new age music, rock, and pop (The Go Go's).

At Mix Desire Studio, we blend digital plugins with analog hardware to craft a unique mixing style. We work with top-tier equipment from brands like Solid State Logic, Eventide, API, and Lexicon, and we take extra care to re-clock our audio interface for a smoother, sharper sound. Additionally, we pass our signal through output transformers to add warmth and depth, ensuring a rich, professional result.
