Hello! My name is M.O. Nomad, and I am a Mixing & Mastering engineer from Greece. I have worked on over 500 tracks with loyal clients for many years. Beyond my experience in the Rap/Trap music genre and the refined aesthetic I have developed over the years, I have also worked in various other music genres and different audio fields. Additionally, I have two fully equipped music studios in Greece. I hold a degree in sound engineering, have worked in various studios, and have 20 years of music studies (degrees in harmony, counterpoint, orchestration, lute, Byzantine music). I believe I can handle any demanding project. I enjoy communicating with my clients and am open to exploring different versions of the songs.

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I usually work on pieces with multiple melodies and tuning using Melodyne. I also take on jobs that require restoration.
