I love helping lyrically driven artists release music in stereo and Dolby Atmos.

This studio is something special. This studio is something special.
AI’s not the enemy—but soulless music might be AI’s not the enemy—but soulless music might be.

If your tracks feel too stiff or too perfect, here are five ways to bring the human element back.
✅ Imperfection is a feature
✅ Collaboration creates energy
✅ Feel > Flawless

Because sometimes the best thing you can do for your song… is get out of the grid.

The first time I heard Atmos, it felt like being i The first time I heard Atmos, it felt like being inside the music.
It brought me right back to my band days—side fills, backline, monitors dialed in, completely surrounded by sound. That moment when it all just clicks and you’re not just playing music—you’re in it.
That’s what Atmos can do for listeners. It turns playback into something closer to performance. And for me, that’s everything.

Why mix in Atmos if it’s just going to be releas Why mix in Atmos if it’s just going to be released in stereo?

For me, it’s about two things:
✅ It’s more inspiring to work in
✅ It keeps the door open for future releases

Even if a project starts in stereo, having an immersive version ready to go means you’re not boxed in later. And when it sounds this good… why not?

What does Dolby Atmos really sound like on headpho What does Dolby Atmos really sound like on headphones?
That depends… on your ears.

Everyone hears it a little differently—but many of my clients say it feels like they’re inside the music.

You don’t need a fancy setup to try it—just grab headphones and hit the samples on my site.

Before I ever touch a fader, I want to understand Before I ever touch a fader, I want to understand the heart of the song.

What inspired it?
What are you trying to say?
What do you want people to feel?

That first conversation gives me the context I need to approach the mix like someone who’s already on your team. And when we start from that place, the rest tends to fall into place.
