    uniE603 Seeds Will Grow
    This is a track I composed/produced/engineered, and mixed. This track features the sultry vocals of Sonni Shine, look her up on Spotify sometime! music R&B Soul…
    uniE603 Nico ( Americana)
    This is one of the songs I mixed in my advanced mixing class at Berklee. Not sure who the artist is as we aren't always privy to that info. I enjoyed the vocal treatment in this as well as the role the drums played in the production. There are a lot of cool sound effects included like birds and a lighter being lit. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Diamonds (Americana)
    This friend of mine is an excellent vocalist and songwriter looking for a producer/mix engineer to help turn her song idea into a polished production for release on the streaming platforms. I enjoyed the style and retro vibes with this one. Available on all streaming platforms for the artist Tarah Devah. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Seminole Wind (feat. Peter Rowan) (Americana)
    This was a track I produced for artist Kelly Hyde which is a cover of an old John Anderson song. I had previously worked with the famous bluegrass legend Peter Rowan and asked him if he wanted to jump on this track which he was kind enough to do. This song has done well and received many streams on Spotify and Apple music. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Lift This Weight (Americana)
    This is a singer-songwriter production that I was able to produce and mix for the artist Drew Henmi who has gone on to be a successful synch writer and has had stuff placed in several prominent commercials and video productions. Available on all streaming platforms. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 New Dimensions of Love (House)
    This is a house track I mixed, haven't done a lot of these but it was a lot of fun to delve into this genre. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Blue Tarp Chronicles (Hip-Hop)
    This is a song I produced and played guitar on as well as did the engineering and mixing. It's a hyper-local track that talks about the homeless situation and cost of living here on the Big Island of Hawaii where we live. The track features Punahele and Joel Spiral. Available on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp: https://www.twine.net/signin mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Watching & Waiting (Americana)
    This is a collaboration between vocalist Benno Hudson and myself in which I wrote and produced the music for the song as well as engineered and mixed it and Benno wrote and sang the lyrics. This has been released on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp here: https://www.twine.net/signin mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Once Was a Fire (Americana)
    Another Berklee mix I did. This is one of the coolest songs I've heard and mixed in a long time. I could hear this in the soundtrack to like Lord of the Rings or maybe Game of Thrones. Wait for the chorus, it will crush your brain! mixingengineer music…
    uniE603 Haven't Seen an Angel Tonight (Americana)
    Yet another mix I did in the Berklee advanced mixing course I took recently. This is more of a hard rock sound reminiscent of the 80's. It was fun doing the vocal and guitar treatment, especially the latter, and getting that huge wall of sound. mixengineer music…
    uniE603 Make Me A Tree (Americana)
    This was one of the mixes I did in the advanced mixing class at Berklee. It's such a beautiful and moving song with delicate textures. The cello and keys add a really nice component and emotional arc to the song. mixengineer music…
