Pietro Cavassa on SoundBetter

I make the best experimental pop music, like you've never heard before or after.

Hey there!

I am a London based producer and mix engineer. I work mainly in the electronic music/avant garde field. I have a really honest but extremely weird approach to production, mix and whatever concerns music. My goal is to make things sound so good that anything else becomes just pointless.

Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.

    Working with Pietro has been a surprising experience so far, he is not only a talented producer but also an impressive musician and a thoughtful person.
    To say "highly recommended" would be an understatement.
    100/100 !!!!!!!!!!

    Pietro is an asset to anyone who works with him, musician or otherwise, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Catch him quick before he reaches the stratospheric industry heights that await him.

    As a first collaboration I can only be satisfied. Is not easy to find someone who works by your side step to step and listens to your perplexities or ideas, someone to have dialogue with during the production and mixing work. I consider Pietro very professional as well as talented and I highly recommend him to those looking for a sound that accompanies their voice.

    I am currently working with Pietro, remotely. He nailed the sound I had in my head from the very first demo and produced it accordingly, sometimes pleasingly surpassing expectations. We are at the beginning of our collaboration, but I couldn't be happier.

Diligently worked on the the track and gave regular updates and feedback quickly all the way to the finish line! Will absolutely recommend and will be working with Pietro again very soon.

    I had, and still have, the pleasure to work with Pietro Cavassa on the soundtracks for sound reactive and interactive media art videos and installations. It's not so easy for a composer to work on such stuff, but working with Pietro worked from the first try.
    He has a fantastic sense of rhythm and composition, he totally got the concepts of my artworks and composed soundtracks that fit perfectly and work together with the images.
    I felt he was with me from the first try, and it's very rare for my experience.

    Pietro is incredibly easy to work with. I brought him my ideas and problems to solve for a dance performance track and he took them all on and made them better than I had imagined they could be. His knowledge of sound design is extensive and you can trust that he will find a way to give you the best outcome possible.

    It was a pleasure to work together on a collaborative ep, production and various other projects. He's the real professional guy; talented, creative and technically skilled.
    It would be great to work together again.

    Very passionate and reliable, super creative, will flip a song and make it pop or be super transparent in the mix depending on what you need. Super quick turnarounds, 100% would work with Pietro again.
