Again, asking Alex is the only thing i've ever done right.
check_circleVerifiedAlex is an absolute magician!!! He was constantly clear and precise in his professional manner. His idea around the fine-tuning of the bass truly transformed our song into something beautiful.
I'm most definitely looking forward to working with Alex on my future projects.

Love working with Alex!
He's super efficient and always ensures the song comes out exactly as I imagined - check_circleVerified
A very pleasant and helpful experience.
This song was an experiment and I was a bit nervous entering the mix phase, especially as it’s remote.
All I needed to do was to share the vision with my own not technical words and Alex got it immediately, and was very patient as always throughout the process.
Excellent job. - check_circleVerified

Ask Alex if you know what's good for you

A great job as always. Alex did some edits for me on my previous mixed version. He understood the assignment and took just 2 iterations to get it done. Will definitely recommend.

A: I am focusing on mastering single tracks, or tracks within a bigger project, for example an EP or LP. I am also doing mixing services, so there is the possibility to combine both services into one order.

A: I am working on a Desktop PC with two KRK 8 ROKIT G3 Speakers and DT770 Pro Headphones. The DAW i use is FL Studio 20. I invested in a few Plugins from Izotope, Youlean and Soundtoys for mastering and mixing purposes.
