Mixing Engineer for Independent Artists
Take the pain out of finishing your next song.
Using over 15 years of experience, I offer a unique professional mixing service that weaves tuition into the process. Attended and online sessions are available from my acoustically treated studio in Leeds
Mix, Master & LEARN
Most independent artists reach a wall. The song is good but something is stopping it from sounding finished. The last 20% is what takes a song from sounding like a demo to a polished releasable song.
I bridge that gap with professional mixing and mastering, and I bring you into the process as we go. You'll hear why decisions are made and learn how to mix - not just receive a polished file. That means better music now, and better instincts for every track after.
Artists who've worked this way have gone on to land management deals, Radio 1 and 6 Music plays, award nominations and support slots, from tracks they recorded themselves.

Case Studies for Independent Musicians
GARAGE BAND DEMO TO RADIO 1
I produced, mixed and mastered this track as part of an EP for Dirty Blonde. Throughout the strategic release of this EP the band migrated from BBC introducing to Radio 1 and 6 Music. It’s a great example of how independent artists can compete at the highest level. Get the mix right and get a strategy!
Home recorded tracks to playing Scala
The Harbours recorded Scarlet themselves in their home studio, sending me the full session for mixing. I helped with editing, and arrangement to tighten the groove then added some production details. After a fully polished mix we went through revisions and mastering.
The finished version was a big part of being chosen to support Smallpools at Scala.
DIY Artist On 6 Music
Hang Linton self produces his music and just needed a hand getting a couple of tracks across the line. We worked on adding that professional gloss without losing his soul from the music. It has been released by Zen FC a label from the lads in Yard Act and featured on 6 Music amongst other stations and playlists. Recently back from touring with Benefits he is creating a buzz on the alt music scene.
