About Me

My name is Dylan Schroth, and I'm a Music Producer and Audio Engineer of 10+ years working out of Jersey City, NJ. I help small bands and artist discover their creative visions and turn their demos into fully realized productions.

I've worked with dozens of artists and bands, with my work contributing to hundreds of songs and 100,000+ streams worldwide. Every project had one things in common: a shared passion for taking their musical craft to the next level.

The Production Package

Mixing

Balancing multitracks into the final stereo format.

I think a great mix should give you glimmers. It should feel right before you can even articulate what's working. I aspire with each mix to make your songs feel beautifully bold, emotionally powerful, and true-to-the-self. Free mastering included with every mix.

The final step in the production process.

Preparing and optimizing the final stereo mix for distribution. Enhancing clarity, balance, calibrating loudness, etc, to make sure the track sounds polished, cohesive, and balanced across different listening mediums. Free Mastering available with every mix.

Mastering

I get to know your artistic intentions for a song and help you make it a reality from the ground up.

That includes a number of things, including but not limited to, planning and executing the recording process, arranging vocals and instrumentation, guitar & bass tracking, drum and MIDI programming, etc.

Working with you through the full journey of music production.

• Production package includes education, mixing, and mastering at a reduced rate
