your sound in full focus
Bio:
Born in Hollywood, second-generation sound engineer Jeremy Barnes traveled extensively, and was one of the electronic artists at the first Burning Man which allowed sound systems. He attended SAE in Melbourne, AU developing a love for mastering, while pursuing music production and mixing and has since spent years in the studio before taking a break to study architecture. He's done work for majors, film companies and cool-as-they-come indie labels, and will handle your recordings with the same care.

Commit and make it work." - Alan Parsons
MASTERS© 2021
Since decades "vintage" analog circuits have colored & time-stamped recordings for instant recognition, and as studios have upgraded many agree something was lost along the way.
Are your mixes lacking in clarity, heft or excitement? Close or not, perhaps what's missing is a bit of the sonic signature from timeless classics. Subtle to most, hitting the sweet spot will however have you sounding your best. In essence, much care is taken to nail the sound, for your songs to simply shine.
Styled as intended.
If your creations take stylistic cues from the 60's and 70's why not convey that to the listener with full-fat analog processing?
The Analog Signal
What its all About
Without sounding like a damaged archival tape, gentler use of original equipment can lend weight and punch to rock, pop, or modern electronic work, sooth a sparse acoustic song or jazz number. Often a judicious hybrid approach makes sense. Yes, digital is also part of our workflow, sounding better and better since the early 90's, but a pristine vintage germanium signal path summed through an authentic custom-built box (full of tube & transformer goodness) is what brings your sound into full bloom.
Unless you send us a 1/4" tape (recorded at 15 IPS) to have your material mastered 100% analog on its way to vinyl, your source and delivery may both be digital. You'll be in good hands, and will have results which you can be proud of as your legacy unfolds.
