Thank you, Matt., your feedback was detailed, well-balanced, and clearly came from a place of genuine understanding of song production and mix. I truly value how you offered an unbiased perspective that highlighted both the strengths and the areas that need improvement particularly in the performance dynamics and mix. Your compliments on the songwriting and overall vibe were really appreciated.

It was an amazing experience working with Matt on my single “Lucky Charm” for my solo project, Vestigial Hearts.
I selected Matt due to his impressive catalogue working with big-name artists, and after hearing him describe his approach to mixing and mastering on a recent podcast. Matt was very responsive via the Soundbetter platform, and paid close attention to all of the detailed notes I provided. I'd highly recommend working with Matt to bring your artistic vision life.

Fantastic again! This was my second time working with Matt in less than two months. I came back because of his high quality mix talent and ease of communication on my last song. I am thrilled to report the same on this project! High quality mix, high value production choices that complement the soul of the song. I'll be coming back for thirds soon!

Matt did a great job getting my mix to an FM radio sound and added depth that wasn't there via his mastering. He knew how to push my rock track just enough to be able to feel very energetic, though not slammed. Would for sure work with Matt again! Top notch master.
