Release-ready songs for UK Alt Rock & Art Rock Artists
Are you struggling to nail your sound?
​
Does your recorded material live up to your vision?
I’ve been a musician for over 40 years and I love helping other musicians to find their sound. I don’t just mix & master; think of me as the ‘polish’ – the person who can understand your vision and help you deliver it.
​
Vocals a bit out of tune? Drums sound weak? Guitars not cutting it? Don’t worry, I’ll fix it.
​
And if you don’t like what I do, I’ll refund your deposit in full*.
No risk – just reward.
​​
Interested?
​
I’m always happy to have a chat or video call – just email me to book a time. Or send me your rough mix (.mp3 or .m4a) and I'll get back to you.

Check out this neat comparison player, where you can directly compare the initial rough mixes I received with my 'Polished, Mixed and Mastered' versions.
...and below are a couple of commercially-released tracks that have received the MackieMix treatment
Madonna – Ray of Light (.m4a)
I love the original ‘electronica, trip-hop, dance-pop’ version, which was innovative in its time but rather long at 5m22s. I re-worked this as a ‘pop-rock’ single 3m31s, adding new drums, bass, keys and guitars where appropriate - but I didn’t change Madonna’s vocals!
Kamaliza - The Oracle (.m4a)
This was a mix/master project from ‘raw’ stems – part of my mixing intensive course with mastering.com (You can find the official version on most streaming sites)
The Studio
I work in a sound-conditioned studio environment using the latest version of Logic Pro on an Apple Mac Studio Ultra (Dual Processor) with 128 GB RAM. I have an extensive range of high-end audio plugins to solve problems and to bring space and life to your sound.
​
Monitoring is via Dynaudio BM6A active monitors and Neumann NDH30 headphones, both utilising Sonarworks Sound ID reference calibrated sound correction.
