I am incredibly proud to have worked on the banging new single from @innuendo_dublin all the way from writing to mastering. I went all out on the mix for this tune, huge thanks to @byjanksy for wonderfully engineering us in the studio, which allowed more time for experimenting and fine details in the mix 🤝 I was able to try loads of new (to me) ideas and learned a lot from it and I couldn’t be happier with how the song sounds :)) Everyone put their all into this song and it really shows! Go give it a listen :)

ROSEMARY IS OUT NOW! Blood, sweat and tears went into mixing & mastering this lovely tune and I’m very proud of the finished product. I really hope you all enjoy song as much as us in @innuendo_dublin do. Go give it a listen 🎧🫶 Massive thank you to @daniel_de_burca for recording the track with us earlier this year🫡 Fun fact about this track is that the bass is tuned to drop D to hit the low D in the key of F, which makes it a pretty fun and interesting bass part to play :D

Had the absolute pleasure of mastering this vibey tune for the lovely folks in @eppieband 😊 Check it out so you know the words for their gig next Tuesday!!! Fun fact about this track is that it was printed to cassette tape as part of the mastering chain, dolby B noise reduction was used to decrease the noise floor but not totally eliminate it. I adore how versatile printing to cassette can be with how subtle or extreme you want it to be, as well as the lovely natural compression it offers :)

Ever wanted to record through an analog console? Even just to see one in the flesh? I would love to help you put that analog mojo and fun pouring out of@sunstudiosdublin into your next project. DM me for more details on my recording rates, I look forward to working with you :)
