Hi, My name is Brandon Metcalf, I am a Pro Tools Certified Mixing Engineer and a Singer/Songwriter. I have been mixing for over two years and have been writing songs since before the age of nine. I understand a good amount of music theory and play a variety of different instruments.
Creativity is the the most important part of every song
As a musician and a Mixing Engineer I am always in a creative mindset. I see songs from a musical standpoint first and then can make it come to life as mixing engineer. My skills as a mixing engineer allow me to bridge the gap between creativity and technology. I have a strong passion for Music and Mixing and look forward to any mix that comes my way.
