Here is some more information about what I do.
I offer song mixing, audio recording and session drumming services.
My standard rates can be found at the bottom of this page.
Song mixing
Searching for someone who can make you an awesome sounding mix with lots of attention to detail?
If so, then I would be humbled if you considered me for your next project.
If you are curoius about my mixing style or if you just wish to hear some examples of my work, then head over to my PORTFOLIO page and have a listen!
I work out of my home studio in Viljandi, Estonia.
If practical, you can join me in person while I work on your music. We can also arrange to meet and/or communicate online as and when needed.
Deliverables
Once your mix is ready and you are happy with the result, I'll be able to deliver your song in any audio format that you need, including:
- Exports in 24-bit/48 KHz quality
- Undithered audio files (needed for external mastering)
- Loudness normalization suited for individual streaming services (LUFS)
If you've got some mixing project that I might be able to help you with, then head over to my CONTACT page and drop me a line!
Audio recording
Need help with recording one or several songs? If you either live in or are able to travel to Estonia, Latvia or Finland then I'll be itching to help!
I've got a selection of microphones and additional equipment available that is typically sufficiant to record a group of about 4 or 5 musicians.
My gear is quite portalbe and we'll be able to record just about anywhere that has low enough levels of noise.
If preferred, I'm also able to prodcure dedicated studio spaces available for rent.
I always get very exited about recording live instruments, so if you'd like my help with this then please don't hesitate to get in touch with me over on my CONTACT page!
Session drumming
If you need professionally recorded and awesome sounding acoustic drums, then I've got you covered.
I play a variety of genres and can improvise on just about anything. That said, I'm most comfortable playing slower tempo stuff and typically genres like:
- Rock
- Soul/R&B
- Pop
- Hip-hop
- Jazz
You can listen to some examples of my drumming on my PORTFOLIO page.
To make my recordings, I use one of the following options available to me — An awesome sounding Yamaha Live Custom acoustic kit or a warm and punchy Meinl cajón.
Microphones
I typically use the following microphones for my acoustic kit setup:
- Overhead: 2x Audio Technica AT2020
- Toms: 2-3x Sennheiser E 904
- Hi-hat: 1x Phillips SBC MD60
- Snare: 1x Sennheiser E 904 top and 1x Shure SM57 bottom
- Kick: 1x Shure SM57 in and 1x Shure BETA 58A out
- Room: 1x AKG C214
When recording the cajón, I'll most likely use:
- Front: 1x Shure SM57
- Rear: 1x AKG C214
Nothing is set in stone though, so let me know if you've got any preferences or requests.
Deliverables
Once I've finished tracking and mixing, I will provide you with the following:
- One track per microphone used
- 2-3 full takes
- One "curated/composited" take consisting of the best sections from all my attempts
I'll provide you with midly "colored" stems. By this I mean that EQ and compression is applied while I track/record. I do this so that the drum recording will better fit your existing mix.
If any of the above sounds interesting to you, then please don't hesitate to contact me. I'm always itching to perform and collaborate!
