Ryan Hinkle on SoundBetter

I have produced, engineered, and mixed for major label and local artists from multiple commercial studios as well as from my home studio. Session highlights include Justin Bieber, Godsmack, and Bastille. I graduated from Berklee (Production and Engineering) and love diverse genres- Pop, Rock, Hip Hop, Dance, Celtic, Folk, Metal. Let's create!

With over 15 years of experience playing sax, piano, viola and programming, I've always had a passion for music. I have been fortunate enough to mix, produce, and record with talented artists from most genres. My professional roles have included Manager/Engineer/Producer at Sanctum Sound, and Herd Studio, MIDI Author with Accel Studios for the game Rockband, Engineer at The Bridge Sound and Stage, and Co-Owner of Hink Creations. My strengths include vocal editing/tuning, mix and production. I have a BA from Berklee College of Music in Production and Engineering and I make a pretty good breakfast. When I'm not working on music, I'm outside walking around Boston.

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

    Hink brings ideas to life. Every session spent with Ryan has not only been a great time, but has brought each song or project to the next level. Every time I leave the studio I immediately cant wait to get back in!

    Ryan is the most talented engineer I have ever worked with, hands down. He always transforms the ideas I have in my head as to how I’d like my music to sound exactly the way I imagine it and goes above and beyond doing so. He is a GENIUS in the studio.

    Working with Ryan has been such a joy, He brings my music to life! He always has great suggestions, tips and ideas in general. He is also very patient and understanding during the music process. He makes me feel so comfortable and at ease when I record and that is something I definitely appreciate. I’ve never once questioned his work ability during our sessions; He is a musical genius! I definitely plan on sticking with him as long as I can!

    Ryan is in all around amazing PRODUCER! I have two songs coming out with him soon that he helped me produce. He brings the songs energy to another level. His knowledge in navigating different recording softwares is the best I have seen. He is without a doubt one of the best producers in the game. I am extremely excited to release the tracks that I have worked on with him and I’m very confident that they will be two of my most successful songs. I highly recommend working with him he’s a homey for sure and will help bring your music to the next level!
