Recording, Production and Mix

From the first take to the final master — we support every stage of making a record, tailored to independent artists and brands alike.

What’s included

Recording is the foundation. We capture vocals, instruments and voice with clarity and performance accuracy — single-instrument and vocal recording, overdubbing and editing for music, podcasts, voice-overs and audiobooks.

Production is where the track takes shape: arranging, layering, songwriting, sound design and post-production across genres from classical to contemporary — every artistic vision realised and readied for the mix.

Mixing brings it together. Using a combination of high-end analog and digital processing we craft width, depth, warmth and punch, so the track sits right and arrives fully prepared for mastering.

a.Voice & instrument recording+

Capturing vocals, instruments, and any sound worth keeping, with mics and signal chains matched to the source. We record through high-end analog and digital gear in Zagreb, prioritising clarity and performance accuracy. You walk away with clean takes that hold up at every later stage.

b.Overdubbing & editing+

Layering new parts over existing recordings and tightening what’s there — comping, timing, transitions. We edit with a producer’s ear, not just a grid: the performance stays human while the rough edges go. The result is an organised, musical session ready for production.

c.Songwriting & arranging+

Developing your material: structure, harmony, instrumentation. Jan brings industry-level composition and arrangement across genres from classical to contemporary, working with your vision rather than over it. You leave with an arrangement that carries the track on its own.

d.Sound design & post-production+

Original textures, atmospheres, and designed sound for tracks, film scores, and advertising. Built from scratch with analog and digital tools under one roof — the same craft we bring to clients like Red Bull and Universal. Your project gets a sonic identity nothing off-the-shelf can match.

e.Mixing — analog + digital+

Balancing every element into one polished sound: levels, EQ, reverb, effects, stereo space. A hybrid of high-end analog hardware and digital precision gives the width, warmth, and punch. You receive a mix ready for mastering — editing, production and mix all at €50 per hour.

f.Project management+

One point of contact from first session to final delivery: scheduling, coordination, versions, deadlines. We’ve managed productions for independent artists and major brands, so nothing falls between the takes. You stay on the music while the logistics happen.

Pricing

Recording, editing, production and mixing are billed by the hour; mastering is a fixed price per track. You get an estimate before we start — the final price follows the hours actually worked, but it does not go above the estimate unless the job itself changes.

The fine print

EstimateYou get an estimate before we start. The final price follows the hours actually worked, but it does not go above the estimate — unless the job itself changes. If the work turns out much quicker than planned, we bring the price down.

RevisionsTwo rounds on the mix are included in the estimate. A round is one collected set of notes, sent in one pass and worked through together. Technical faults on our side we fix free of charge, however many times it takes; further rounds of content changes are billed at the hourly rate.

PaymentA 20% deposit confirms the booking. The balance is due 30 days from the date of the recording. If delivery is late past the agreed deadline through our fault, the due date moves by the same number of days.

Questions we get asked

Asked and answered.

Who have you recorded and mixed?

Among others: Sara Renar (Croatia Records), Baby Lasagna × Red Bull Symphonic (Universal), Lovro Baletić (Aquarius Records), Kai Alce, Louie Vega and Ivan Mamão Conti. A selection of the records is in the grid below.

Do you only work with musicians?

No — independent artists and brands alike. Voice and single-instrument recording, overdubbing and editing for music, webinars, voice-overs, audiobooks, and vocals over pre-recorded instrumentals.

Can we record a podcast here?

Yes — but a podcast is a different job. The episode, the cameras and the deadline set the price, not the hour, so it has its own page: Podcast Production.

Analog or digital?

Both. The mix runs through a hybrid of high-end analog hardware and digital processing — that is where the width, depth, warmth and punch come from — and it arrives fully prepared for mastering.

Can you take it all the way to the master?

Yes. Mastering is its own service, with its own page — Mastering & Restoration — and a mix made here goes straight to it, in the same room and through the same hands.
