Machine was again able to take the mix onto another level with the mastering! Special props for the improved distinctiveness of instruments and vocs, and how he was able to tighten up loose bass frequencies. Highly recommended!

A: I love the connection to people. I use my talents to enhance their creativity and enjoy the connection as they share in the process.

I offer: - The perspective of a pro who has credits on records by Lamb of God, Fall Out Boy, Clutch, Gym Class Heroes, Every Time I Die, Gym Class Heroes, Suicide Silence and more - A person-centered approach - Revisions until you’re 100% happy with the track - Replacement in case of loss - A free preliminary phone call to discuss the project.

Machine is the real deal. Great work and super fast turn around. He really put the icing on the cake mastering my mixes. Highly recommend.

A: First and foremost, I want to know if they’re happy with their mix and it’s where it needs to be – and if they’re happy, let’s go, master. I’m not interested in taking their money super-quick.

Machine is the best!! He has done a wonderful job on every track we’ve sent to him. He has a great ear, is super easy to work with, and is focused on delivering a final product you will love. We’ll totally work with him again!!

A real pleasure working with Machine! He was able to Master my mixes in a way that I simply couldn't. Offered good advice and feedback on the mix to help get the result I wanted and was very communicative. This type of cooperation exactly what I was looking for.

As a returning customer I can say it was again very professional mastering. He was able to bring the original mixdown up to modern loudness without sacrificing anything, but actually adding the right amount of clarity and glue to level it up! Also, very quick turnaround and great communication!

Super quick turnaround, amazing quality. Really brought my song to life. Great at handling my nitpicky revisions too! Can't recommend enough

Machine has become my band's go-to masterer, because he always adds some real sparkle and definition to the songs. Quick, very easy to communicate and the end result is always amazing!

Mastering is the final commitment in the record-making process, and I have a very musical, creative approach to it. My name is on some of the definitive metal and rock releases of the last 25 years, as producer and engineer, so I know how to connect with artists and make tracks that exceed expectations. Through my experience of releasing so much commercial music, I strongly feel that a louder, denser master is very important. The key is having the skill to do that without ruining the integrity of the mix. My expertise is more than just technical. In my studios, I’ve got the equipment and plugins that will achieve state-of-the-art masters, but my favorite part of the process is the relationship with the people I work for. I get a thrill from helping to inspire their creative vision. Ask me anything, whether you’re a seasoned pro or a beginner. I offer a free 15-minute creative chat before you book, where I’ll hear the track and assess where it’s at. The advantage is that you’re on the phone to a veteran guy and if you’re just starting out, I’m happy to talk you through it. I have an organic approach to mastering and always communicate my process and make it transparent from start to finish. Turnaround is usually 48 hours or less. We do revisions till you’re 100%, and in case of loss – no matter how long afterward - I’ll provide a new copy. I’ve got your back!

A: It’s truly not a process of fixing a mix. There are two sides to mastering: the technical side, where things need to be industry-standard with the right metadata so you make sure you get your royalties when it goes into the world. And then there’s the creative side where you put the EQ enhancement on a mix. A lot of mastering people are too conservative to do that. I think loud masters are important: in a world where your music gets discovered in playlists, the volume makes your song stand out. People perceive louder as better. We’re in a world where music discovery is 97% playlist, and when your songs are going back to back against other tracks, volume and presence make your song shine. Some people say the volume wars don’t matter anymore, but they do.

A: I’m most known for metal, but I’ve done many other things. I started in hip hop, and EDM, rock, pop, and country are all in my wheelhouse.

Fantastic result. Quick, communicative, professional. Knew exactly where to take our master from the get-go. Highly recommend!

Working with Machine was great! Personal, fast and high quality service. Everyone in the band was happy with the results

Machine was great! Pretty much nailed it the first time, took some basic feedback and make it happen. Game changer for the tune - Thanks!

Very quick turn around and amazing mastering results. I knew he would do a very good job based on the work I've already heard him do, and was not disappointed. If you need mastering done you really can't go wrong with Machine, highly recommend.

A: Don’t feel it’s wrong to have creative references. It’s fine to pick out a couple of songs that you’d like to emulate. I always have a reference master when I’m mastering, and if in turn, you presented me with a master you love, that’s fine. It helps you stay in your lane, maintain a clear focus and gain confidence.
