Mariano Cukierman on SoundBetter

I have more than 10 years of experience in the audio world. I worked with all kinds of clients: from big companies, advertising and multimedia agencies that handle the highest standards of sound, audio logos and sound design, to small independent artists who dedicate their lives to their art.

I believe that creativity is the starting point to find the solution to most problems. I am very thoughtful and intuitive for every project I get involved in. I like to internalize myself as deeply as possible. That's why I am constantly training and facing new stimuli in order to have always new and renewed ideas.

I needed a great communicator who had professional experience producing and mixing a song which required Mariano to hire vocalists, create a new version of original music from a demo I recorded, and mix a single. I found a gem, a complete pleasure to work with, and I hope this is the first of many great reviews he earns.

Interview with Mariano Cukierman

Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: There is no correct answer. They are two sound design tools, each with its pros and cons.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Each artist and each song are a world to discover. Being the explorer of those worlds is what fascinates me the most about my work.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: If the song works with only one instrument, the rest are colors.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I usually work on pop songs, groovy beat, R&B and soul.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I feel very comfortable working with the groove of a song, both from the sound design and from the musical arrangement, I think that making the listener move his foot when he listens to the music is my most successful work.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I like to have a chat with the artist to get to know him and understand where his/her musical quest is coming from, what kind of audio he/she has in mind and how I can help him achieve it. Then, I usually ask for inspirational references that can be used for the search (either arrangement, audio or mixing). Once the process is underway, I like to maintain a constant communication channel with the artist to see the progress together and to be able to make the necessary adjustments to materialize the music.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Right now, I'm working with either Pro Tools or Live - depending on the type of production or mix I have to do. Gear wise, I have an Apollo Twin Duo, U87, SM7B, and 57 mics, Adam T7V monitors, Arturia controllers, Seagull AC guitar, '94 Japanese Fender Stratocaster, Shecter Custom 335, Warkick Rock Bass, and a 2019 Macbook Pro.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I'm a music fan, I like the sound design of Fineas, the groove of John Mayer and D'Angelo, the harmonies and arrangements of Sting ... if it's music, I love it!
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I usually do integral productions related to soul, r & b and indie. I'm also call to mix third party productions.
