For the Love of Music

At 21st Century Audio, we believe in helping support the musical vision of our artists with the best technical tools, and the best ears in the business.

With a degree in Music (Electronic Music Composition) and a previous career as a professional musician (Bass), I have a good background for understanding what makes good recordings: from the bottom up! Between many Grammy™-, Oscar©- and Emmy©-winning projects over my career, I stand by my record(s).

Having been a recording engineer/mixer at such renowned L.A. studios as Wally Heider’s, Sunset Sound, and Capitol Studios, I recorded some spectacular Artists -including Miles Davis, Toto, Richard Marx, Dwight Yoakam, Frank Sinatra, Poco, Marcus Miller, Barbra Streisand, Phil Collins, Joan Baez.

Next stop was Sony Pictures, where I recorded the scores for such films as Monsters Inc., Black Hawk Down, Toy Story 2, Rush Hour 2 and many more.

And then the next two decades have seen me evolve into a Mastering Engineer at Universal Mastering, AfterMaster Studios, and now my own outfit: 21st Century Audio. Notable Artists include, Peter Erskine, Supersonic Blues Machine, Joe Perry, The Manhattan Transfer, Ray Charles, David Garfield, Nikkole, Harry Shearer, Steve Lukather, Toto and many others!

I am really fortunate to have had such diverse musical experiences - and I feel more than ready to take on whatever musical challenges that come my way.

So let’s make some beautiful music... together!
