North Valley Music on SoundBetter

I have been working in the world of sound since 2003, working in my studio since that time mixing and mastering music, and producing corporate music for renowned brands.

Carlos started studying piano and classical music at the age of 10, and he entered the world of sound in 2003. He studied Higher Education in Sound at CES, finalizing his formal education in Spanish radio and television (RTVE) as a sound engineer in the control room.

He has worked as a music producer for well-known brands like Nordik, Mist, Gillete, La Chinata, Mirto, and more, both in marketing and communication campaigns.

Carlos produces, mixes, and masters for artists who have been nominated and won MTV Music Awards in the North Valley Music studio, where both national and international artists come to fine-tune their work.

His last live job was at the Waterland festival, which included world class artists like Davide Squillace and Technasia.

Interview with North Valley Music

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: A project that I keep with love was 11 years ago, I had to record the sounds of a shirt factory, and compose a song with the sounds of that factory synchronously with a video.I'm surprised that they still have it on their website.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: Right now I am working on several projects, songs by some indie musicians from my country and electronic music productions

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: I don't know anyone, I'm new in SoundBetter

  7. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  8. A: Analog for various reasons, 3d image, headroom, warmth

  9. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  10. A: That the song has to be to the taste of the client. Many clients know me well and give me full freedom to work on their song.

  11. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  12. A: I like everything, I am a privileged person who works in what I loves

  13. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  14. A: How did you do it?. With compression and equalization

  15. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  16. A: way too perfectionist

  17. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  18. A: How would you like your song to sounds like?

  19. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  20. A: That respects the levels, that sounding higher does not mean sounding better.

  21. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  22. A: I can't live without my Atc 100, but I would also have to take my crane song avocet, my kahayan summing mixer, the lynx aurora (n) and my Korg kronnos

  23. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  24. A: I started in 2003 as soon as I finished my higher studies in sound.I started my first studio 17 years ago.

  25. Q: How would you describe your style?

  26. A: I do not understand that question, but I will try to answer.A lot of music that is in the music market, sounds very sharp and squashed, my style is the opposite of that.

  27. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  28. A: Daft punk, the groove of their songs and their sounds attract me a lot.

  36. A: What I usually achieve in each song is clarity, punch and dimension. That everything sounds its in place.

  37. Q: What's your typical work process?

  38. A: The first thing I do is listen to the song well, if I have to mix it I see that each track is at a suitable level, phase etc. Then I insert everything into my summing mixer,It depends on how you want to sound, I put it in transparent mode or with the color of the SSL 4000 and from there I start to process all the elements of the song. If I have to master a song first I listen to the song and observe the levels phase and after that I apply my chain, normally in M ​​/ S mode passed through by my dangerous liason.
