Are Amateur Sonics Holding You Back?
Are you experiencing:
Muddy and Unclear Mixes
that lack definition and leave you feeling frustrated and defeated, questioning your artistic vision?
Inconsistent Instrument Levels

A Mix That Doesn't Translate
across different listening devices, leaving you feeling misrepresented to your intended audience?
We can fix that!
We believe that every artist deserves to have their music sound as powerful and professional as their vision. You shouldn't have to settle for a mix that doesn't capture the true essence of your work, and you deserve to have your music heard with the clarity and impact it was meant to have. We fight against the notion that technical limitations should hinder artistic expression, and we stand for the idea that every song, regardless of genre, should be given the sonic treatment it deserves.
I’m Matt, and I mix records that stand out from the crowd.
I understand the crushing disappointment of hearing your tracks sound flat and lifeless after countless hours in the studio. I know the sinking feeling when your mix doesn't translate, losing its punch on different speakers, and how that can make you doubt your entire project.
You've poured your heart and soul into your music, and you deserve a mix that sounds as powerful and professional as you hear it in your head.
For over 20 years, I've immersed myself in the music industry, witnessing firsthand the power of exceptional mixing to launch careers. I've helped artists achieve significant milestones, including major label advances and placement on official Spotify and Apple Music playlists, which translates to broader visibility and increased fan engagement.
I' confident that my team and I can transform your recordings into the professional, polished, and punchy mix you've always envisioned.

Is Mixing at mad muse studios right for you?
Don't Try This At Home
Just because nearly every successful song (as defined by charting success and stream counts) in the last decade has utilized a mixing or mastering professional at some point in the process doesn’t mean that professional mixing and mastering are right for your project. Let’s see if working with Mad Muse Studios is right for you.
This costs too much money. I can find someone cheaper.
It's true, there are less expensive options available. However, consider the true cost of a subpar mix, which can diminish the impact of your music, potentially costing you streams, listeners, and future opportunities.
Think of it this way: What is the cost of NOT having a professional and competitive-sounding mix? Compare that to the investment in our service, where we use top-tier analog gear and years of experience to deliver a mix that exceeds expectations and maximizes your music's potential.
We've seen many artists invest in cheaper options, only to spend more money in the long run fixing problems or stalling releases. We consider a professional mix a valuable investment in your art.
I can just mix my music myself.
Many artists have the option to mix their music at home. However, professional mixing is a specialized skill that requires years of experience and access to high-end equipment, especially monitoring. Home studios often lack the acoustic treatment and monitoring capabilities needed to achieve a truly professional sound. While DIY can be a great learning experience, it's often difficult to achieve the same level of polish and clarity as a professional mix.
I'm worried about trusting someone I've never met to mix my music.
We understand the importance of trust. That's why we emphasize clear communication and transparency throughout the process. During our mix consultation, we will review your raw stems and encourage you to ask any questions you may have. And during the mix, you can monitor and communicate with Matt in real time during the entire process. Our goal is to build a long-term relationship with you based on trust and mutual respect.
I'm a perfectionist and afraid to give up control of my mix.
Your meticulous attention to detail is an asset! Think of us as your collaborative partner, not just a service provider. We provide detailed mix analysis and thorough consultations, ensuring we're aligned from the start, as well as multiple revision rounds, allowing you to fine-tune every detail. Our online portal facilitates real-time feedback, ensuring you're involved every step of the way. We're here to enhance your vision, not replace it.
I'm not sure if online mixing will work for my genre.
Matt has successfully mixed and mastered a wide range of genres using a hybrid approach that combines the warmth of analog gear with the precision of digital tools. We understand the nuances of live instrumentation and the importance of capturing and enhancing the organic feel and personality YOU bring to your music. For examples of our work, please see our portfolio, which includes projects in rock, indie, folk, country, and more.
I don't have the time to go through this process. I’m ready to release music now.
We understand that your time is valuable. That's why we keep turn-around times super tight. We pride ourselves on being a one-stop shop where an artist can deliver raw multitracks and get back a fully edited, tuned, mastered, and ready-to-release song within 5 days, with an upgrade available for a 24-hour turnaround. We make the process simple and easy, allowing you to focus on what matters most: the release of your music.
