The Studio
Production, mixing and mastering by the same hands that write, produce, mix and master every Shadoe record, with a Bruce Swedien education in the room. Send the stems, get a record back.
Three ways in
Production
Beats and full productions built around your record, from the first idea to a finished arrangement. Hip-hop, electronic, post-punk, reggae and dub are home turf, and the DJ sets say the rest: every genre is fair game.
Mixing
Send the stems, get back a mix with the weight and space that a Bruce Swedien education leaves in you. Vocals that sit, low end that hits without smearing, and revisions until it sits right.
Mastering
Loud where it should be, clean everywhere, delivered to spec for Spotify, Apple Music and the rest. Your own mix, or a mix from here, finished for release.
Send the record
Use the form below. Tell him what you need, how many tracks, and drop a link to the files or a reference mix.
Get a quote
A quote comes back by email, usually within a day. It depends on the track count, the stems and the revisions you want, and it is spelled out before anything starts.
Get it back
Files delivered to spec: WAV masters ready for your distributor, plus alternates or stems when the job calls for them.
- Masters
24-bit WAV masters at the loudness streaming services expect, with no overs and nothing crushed.
- Alternates
Instrumental, clean and acapella versions when you need them for video, sync or radio.
- Stems
For productions from here: the stems, so your record stays yours to remix and perform.
- Revisions
Notes are part of the job. Revisions until it sits right, agreed up front in the quote.
Do I need to be in Ocala?
No. Mixing and mastering are files in, files out, wherever you are. Sessions in Ocala can be arranged for production work.
What should I send for a mix?
Consolidated stems from the start of the song, all at the same sample rate, without master-bus processing, plus a rough mix as a reference. Any format from WAV to a Dropbox link works.
Will you master a mix done somewhere else?
Yes. Send the final mix with a little headroom and say where it is going, and it comes back finished for release.
How are rates set?
Per record, by track count, stems and the revisions you want. Ask, and a quote comes back by email within a day with everything included spelled out.
Who is doing the work?
Shadoe, start to finish. The same producer and engineer behind every Shadoe record, mentored by Bruce Swedien, the engineer behind Michael Jackson's Thriller.
