Mount Maunganui Audio Engineers, Producers & Songwriters

With 19 years of experience and a passion for sonic excellence, I specialize in music production, mixing, and mastering across multiple genres.

One-woman string section- arranging, remote recording, collaborating. Easygoing but professional. I'm comfortable playing anything from folk and rock to Arabic (which I've studied and performed extensively). Can create lush orchestral to gypsy string arrangements, and many in between. Worked with Natalie Merchant, Lou Reed, David Byrne and others.

Brandon Colbein here! I'm a songwriter/artist signed with Warner Chappell/Facet Pub. I've written for artists like Kehlani, TWICE, TXT, The Jonas Brothers, JoJo, Zayn, Liam Payne, Anthony Ramos, Hayley Kiyoko & many more. I've also featured as an artist on multiple Dj releases most recently "Paris in New York" by CashCash.

Sang the featured song in SONY Pictures "Smurfs: The Lost Village" (starring Demi Lovato); Worked with KT Tunstall, Emmy nominated composer Christopher Lennertz, & have had multiple songs placed in Film and Television. Opened for National acts such as Cracker, Joan Osborne, and Bob Marley's The Wailers. See IMDB for full credits.

Amanda has an awesome gift for writing amazing lyrics and great melodies with this. She has published her work in all sorts of genres and is a recording artist/producer now. She has great vocals and can find all sorts of interesting loops, beats to accompany her work. She uses Studio One software from her home studio. She also performs live.

More than just a mixing engineer, I bring over 20 years experience in sound engineering, songwriting, and classical musical training to help make your song the best it can be.

Whilst I can play a range of instruments I would say songwriting is my greatest strength. Writing songs and melodies is what I love the most. The idea of creating something from nothing is a gift. Creativity is something I was born with but it has taken hard work and dedication to see the skill of finishing and crafting songs grow in me.
