Mixing & Mastering Engineers, Producers & Songwriters who worked with Phil Hurley

I've worked in studios for the better part of 25 years, honing my craft working with artists like Built to Spill, Blonde Redhead, and members of the Deftones. I've been an artist, and a studio owner, and now my focus now is on production, mixing, and arranging -- but if you need a little help with guitars, bass, bv's or percussion then I got you.

Audio is my passion. When you work with your passion, you'll never actually work a day in your life. I am intrigued more and more each day with the capabilities we can achieve through audio and understanding of our perception of the vibrations that is sound.

My passion, my voice and my thoughts for your project!

Wicked Squid Studios is a high level audio engineering collective based out of Rochester, NY with over 50 years of collective experience in the audio production industry.

A curious experimentalist, improviser, and collaborator. Passionate about different cultures and music traditions.

I write lyrics that tell stories, evoke emotions, inspire imagination, portray personas. Sometimes ironic, sometimes melancholic. Often thought-provoking and surprising. Something for both the heart and the mind.

All music has its own voice. I have the ability to mold that voice to create an atmosphere that captivates and immersifies the audience into a the world that the artist want to portray. Songs can have minimal words if any at all and still have the ability to speak 1,000 words. I love working with sounds and artist to enable the 'voice' to be heard!

I am a passionate, empathetic, and honest songwriter with the capability of writing for others and adopting their emotions in order to correctly tell the song's story. As a session singer, I listen to direction very well, but can also contribute my own creative ideas when it comes to writing melody, lyrics, and arrangement.

Chemistry. Connection. Shared Vision. That's how great records are made. I give 110% to every project I work on, regardless of your experience level. Produced hundreds of songs over the past decade spanning many genres. Message me today and we'll see if it's a good fit. (All mixes include revisions. I work until we are both happy with the result.)
