Introduction: Every time I work with an artist, I dedicate myself entirely to meet their specific needs. I always ensure that the finished product is of the highest quality and that the artist is fully satisfied. Music has always been my passion, and I believe that my taste and technical knowledge are a few key reasons why my service stands out. I enjoy the entire process. From meeting and connecting with the artists, to recording them, editing, mixing and mastering their music, to then hearing how excited they are with the finished product. From musicians, to singers, rappers, or voiceover actors, I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to help anyone get one step closer to achieving their dreams. I have a lot of fun helping other creative people bring their ideas to life.

I feel really blessed. I wrote my first song and was struggling to produce it on my own. Matt is the first person that responded to me and from the moment we got off the phone, I was sure I wanted to work with him. My song is really special to me and he brought so many amazing ideas to it and was just amazing overall. It was my first time in a studio and I had soooo much fun! He’s so chill to be around! The production quality, his work ethic, his confidence, etc, was incredible. He makes it look effortless. I would not hesitate to produce more music with him!

Matthew has been a joy to work with so far! He is responsive, professional, and knowledgeable in his craft. Upon arrival he showed me around and made me feel at ease. Excellent customer service! You can tell he truly cares about your experience. Upon arrival he already had my song playing. 🥹 You were able to choose from the many different lighting settings, so you felt comfortable while singing. ☺️ Temperate water was available as well (as a singer, you never want cold water) The little things made such a difference. 🥰 We aren’t completely finished with the song, but hearing it somewhat mixed on the big speakers was truly the topping on the cake! I’m so looking forward to our next session!

Details: Singing and instrumentals • Alternative • 45 - 64 years old • 2 tracks • 16 - 30 minutes • Mastering

He gave an honest answer to my project that it was not worth his effort to improve my initially poor-quality folder of songs.

MG Audio Engineer & Producer's reply
Thanks, Eliot! To provide context for those reading, Eliot was wondering if it was possible to improve the sound of some old MP3 recordings he’d had for several decades. Normally I’d say yes, we can absolutely improve the audio as much as possible. Unfortunately, these songs were originally recorded on a cassette, and then re-recorded with a microphone to the cassette player speaker. This was then bounced to a low quality mp3 file. Unfortunately, the resulting audio was so low quality that it was beyond repair.

Man where do I begin. Matt was extremely real and honest with me. He responded quickly and was straight forward about everything. He is absolutely perfect at his craft. Extremely experienced and professional. Not only was he encouraging but suggested so many things that allowed my confidence to flow. He made me feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Matt to anyone wanting a first time or real honest experience in a studio. He is easy to work with and genuine. Trust me he did not tell me to say any of this. This was genuinely my experience and I can’t wait to be back.
