Hello! I’m John Goldsmith, owner of Instigator Sound. I have more than 20 years experience with multiple genres and styles of music including all styles of electronic music, heavy metal, rock, jazz, and bluegrass. As a musician, I understand the care and passion you have put into your project and will treat it with as much care as you have.

I love to run analog as much as possible, but can do everything with everything digital too. Best of both worlds.

I studied Music Composition at SUNY Purchase, hold an MFA in Sound Arts from the Columbia University, and currently work as a Recorded Music Technician at the Clive Davis Institute at NYU.
