MASTERS THAT
LAST FOREVER

Since 2018, I’ve mastered records with hundreds of artists including Paul Wall, Yvie Oddly, TTNG and THRONE with releases on Sony Music, Alcopop! and Victor Entertainment.

Before mastering, I want to learn what the record means to you and how you want listeners to feel. My role is to make sure that feeling translates everywhere.

CLIENTS SAY

  • “Sam is one of the very few mastering engineers I trust to enhance the music while still doing justice to the song, leaving my mix and productions intact. The clients are given the best version of their vision. Period.”

    RICHIE BERETTA

    RYAN MCGROARTY
    Producer (Duke Special, Pleasure Beach, Beauty Sleep)

  • “Everything is so forward! The drums sit better than I ever thought they would. The kick and bass relationship is heavenly. And the vocals sit exactly where I want them to. It’s perfect.”

    NIK GIENGER
    Producer (Abbie Callahan, Evan Cyote, Jackson Perkins)

  • “An acute ear. It’s the most important piece of gear that a mastering engineer has at their disposal. This is what Sam brings to his mastering, and it's why I continually bring him my mixes. Besides having killer gear; I know that Sam will take the time to listen to the music and craft a master that always exceeds my expectations."

    RICH STINE
    Producer (The Head and The Heart, The Last Real Circus)
