Mixing and Mastering

Mixing and mastering for bands that want to sound like their heroes, not like their rehearsal room.

You deliver the recordings, Aljoscha delivers the mix and, on request, the master, release-ready for streaming, vinyl and CD. Modern metal, hardcore, metalcore, post-hardcore, rock: this is his home, and every session here is built for exactly that.

Livestream Mixing

Listen in live. From anywhere.

Livestream mixing is a standard part of every production here. You listen in real time, in full audio quality, through your own speakers or headphones at home, while Aljoscha gives your song a world-class sound.

What that means for you: no emails with twenty revision requests, no waiting for the next version.

How We Start

  1. Request. Send us your music.
  2. Call. No obligation: Aljoscha listens to your music, gives you his honest feedback, and we talk about the record, schedule and budget. After that you know whether and how it fits.
  3. Plan. We define scope and dates, EP or album, so you know what happens when before the first note.
  4. Production. Mix and master in the livestream, you listen in on every song live, release-ready on the agreed date.

    “Aljoscha delivers a punchy sound that is also very transparent and has an incredibly awesome low end. There are few studios that manage to get such a fat sound as Pitchback, and I mean worldwide! The sound Aljoscha produces makes pretty much everything on the market look old.”
    Nico & Patrik, Revaira (translated)

    “Here you don't get an off-the-shelf master or mix! Aljoscha tailors the sound to you and is always there with his honest opinion. The live session is really perfect.”
