Nick Festari is brand of quality and professionalism.
I have known him for 36 years and over time he has formed his skill and experience not only in the eurobeat genre but in many other musical genres.A guarantee of modesty and professionalism.
Lavoro come cantante Eurobeat da moltissimo tempo. Ho iniziato un'attiva collaborazione con Nick qualche anno fa. Serio professionista, molto preparato sia musicalmente sia tecnicamente è dotato di grandi capacità artistiche. Tutto questo è una garanzia visto che resta tuttora uno tra i più stimati produttori di questo genere musicale. Ma non solo, perché con la sua esperienza può seguire anche altre tipologie di lavori in questo settore e cercare di soddisfare ogni esigenza.
Nick is remarkably talented and professional. He knows his craft well and delivers exceptional results. I highly recommend working with him.
Nick is by far one of the most iconic voices and producers in Eurobeat. I’ve had the honor of working with Nick in the past and have seen his talent and breadth of work across 20 years come together into top-notch music that’s from his unique point of view and uniquely his own. His work is created with purpose and professionalism not often seen in the music industry and communications are always clear and easy. I look forward to working with him more in the future and hope you all will consider it too!
I've had the chance to know Nick personally. Not only does he have a solid knowledge of music production, but he's also extremely kind and open-minded and has the ability to see potential in every artist. I highly recommend working with Nick because he'll bring any music idea to life and give you meaningful tips for your future projects.
Nick Festari has been in the business for many years and his contributions to the eurobeat genre is well known among fans around the world. But that's not to say Festari is limited to only one genre, far from it. His range as a songwriter and producer is impressive, he has amazing mastering skills, is great at communicating, and is very friendly! He will get the work done when you need him.
Nick usually delivers exactly what I want quickly and professionally with great communication. He spent his whole life in music and his acquired skills allow him to understand the people who need his services easily.
I highly recommend this guy.If I were to hire someone I trusted I wouldn't think twice about it, Nick Festari is the right man in every situation, from composing to mastering, I'm sure I would receive super-professional treatment at the highest level of efficiency.
Roberto Festari aka Nick "Turbo" Festari, has been in the music business for 30 years, he has composed, written, produced, mixed & mastered HUNDREDS of creative songs over the years & sold to the Japanese, Asian, European & North American markets, having proved himself time & time again & winning numerious music awards and accalaides for his accomplishments, I would'nt think twice not to have songs made by Nick !

Nick Festari is a musician well known in the Eurobeat Japanese scenes, but he perfectly understands the requests of his clients even if the genre is not what he uses to deal with thanks to his professionalism.
This is the definition of professional work. I was quite sceptical while contacting Nick but he proved himself to be capable and very skilled. His mastering skills are something else
Interview with /
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I work on all genres — Dance, Eurobeat, Pop, Rock, Singer-Songwriter, and electronic music. My background is in Eurobeat and Dance, but my mixing and mastering approach works for any genre that needs clarity, punch, and energy.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Mixing and mastering. After 40+ years in the industry I know exactly how a track should feel on any system — club speakers, streaming, headphones. I deliver punch, clarity, and emotional impact every time.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring professional sound and emotional impact. A great mix doesn't just sound good — it makes the listener feel something. That's what I focus on with every project.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: For mixing: I analyze the track first, identify what needs attention, then work systematically — balance, tone, dynamics, space, and energy. I always reference against commercial releases in the same genre. For mastering: I work from a well-balanced mix and bring out the full potential of the track for streaming, CD, or club playback. I communicate clearly at every step and deliver within the agreed timeline.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Mixing and mastering for independent artists, producers, and labels. Most clients come to me with a finished arrangement and need it to sound polished and release-ready. I also do vocal enhancement, stem mastering, and mix repair.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: DAW: Apple Logic X Pro I mainly work ITB so I own many virtual instruments: - refx Nexus 3 - Native Instruments Komplete 12 - Native Instruments Maschine - Lethal - UVI Workstation - Korg Gadget 2 - u-he synths Hardware instruments: - Roland D-05 (Roland D50 clone) - Korg Monologue - Korg Volca Keys - IK Multimedia UNO Synth Plug-ins: - Fabfilter suite - iZotope Studio Production - Waves suite
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I work in the music industry since 1986 and I mainly dealt with electronic music so, initially I was inspired by Stock-Aitken-Waterman and by the dance music of those years. Over the years, anyway, even if my main genre is always electronic, I dealt with many other styles taking inspiration by Robbie Williams, Adele, Green Days, One Direction, etc.
