It was an amazing experience working with Matt on my single “Lucky Charm” for my solo project, Vestigial Hearts.
I selected Matt due to his impressive catalogue working with big-name artists, and after hearing him describe his approach to mixing and mastering on a recent podcast. Matt was very responsive via the Soundbetter platform, and paid close attention to all of the detailed notes I provided. I'd highly recommend working with Matt to bring your artistic vision life.

Fantastic again! This was my second time working with Matt in less than two months. I came back because of his high quality mix talent and ease of communication on my last song. I am thrilled to report the same on this project! High quality mix, high value production choices that complement the soul of the song. I'll be coming back for thirds soon!

Matt did a great job getting my mix to an FM radio sound and added depth that wasn't there via his mastering. He knew how to push my rock track just enough to be able to feel very energetic, though not slammed. Would for sure work with Matt again! Top notch master.

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: As an engineer on U2's "Songs Of Experience" it was a very high pressure environment that had no room for error. It was a lot of hard work and long hours that helped me learn a lot about myself. It was such an honor to be able to create music with true living legends.

Working with Jacknife really allowed me to hone my skills and learn from some of the greatest musicians and producers in the world.
