M. Western on SoundBetter

Having studied the Heavy Rock & Metal Sound of the past and present in great detail with passion, you can expect me to apply that wisdom to your mixes and masters in terms of understanding where your production stands in the grand scheme of things and combine that with what we believe is needed for your song specifically. Specialized in mastering.

You can expect:
- Accuracy
- Decisive Mastering
- Professionalism
- Floor-Raising and Ceiling-Lifting

If you are an artist that is not quite sure about your material and what next steps to take:

Since I can be an aggressive mastering engineer that can also deal with less polished material, you may consider coming with your self-mixed track or stems to me instead of dropping a lot on mixing engineers (or even multiple ones), where there is much more risk involved. By doing this and us having conversations, analyzing, you can also rather quickly determine the potential of your song with less risk. As well as gaining insight faster.

So whether you think your mix is not quite ready for mastering, or if you want to gain more insight- let's get it. Sometimes perception deviates from reality.

Don't be shy about asking questions. Not everything will be behind a pay wall. Especially first inspections of material. Have a great day.

    Just finished guitar tracks with M for the album and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better musician to work with on this project. A professional in the true sense and brings so much to the table in the big and the subtle ways. Cant praise enough.

    M has been working on the guitar work on my tracks. apart from being proficient, he's great at capturing the feel of the track and getting the right sounds. great sense of rhythm, amazing tones and a creative head make him great to work with.
