Still Sounding Amateur
Next to Your Favorite Artists?
You spent hours writing, recording, and perfecting your track. But when you compare it to the records on Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube, something feels off. Maybe…
- ✦Your vocals get buried behind the beat and struggle to command attention.
- ✦You've tried mixing it yourself, but the result sounds muddy, cluttered, or unbalanced.
- ✦Your track sounds noticeably quieter than other artists in your genre.

Your Music Deserves More Than a Generic Mix
I know how frustrating it is to put everything into a track only to have the final product fall short of your vision. I've spent the last 18 years developing and refining my mixing and mastering skills, working on my own music as well as projects from artists throughout the Hip-Hop community.
That means I understand:
- 👉🏼How vocals should sit in a mix.
- 👉🏼How to create punch, clarity, and impact without sacrificing energy.
- 👉🏼How to make your track translate across headphones, cars, speakers, clubs, and streaming platforms.
- 👉🏼How to preserve your unique sound instead of forcing your music into a generic template.
The goal isn't just to make your song louder.
The goal is to make your music sound like it belongs next to the artists that inspire you.
Let's Talk Results
Anyone can promise a professional mix. What matters is whether they can consistently produce music that people actually listen to.
Over the years, I've continued to refine my craft not only as an engineer, but as an active recording artist. The same mixing and mastering approach I use for clients is the approach I've used on my own releases.
But statistics only tell part of the story. The real goal isn't streams.
It's helping artists create music they feel confident releasing, promoting, performing, and sharing with the world.
That's why every mix and master is approached individually, with your goals, references, and artistic identity in mind.
Want To Hear The Difference?
Hey, I'm Adam.
I've been making music since 2008.
What started as a passion for creating my own songs quickly turned into an obsession with understanding why some records sounded professional while others didn't.
For the next 18 years, I spent countless hours writing, recording, mixing, mastering, and releasing music — refining my craft not because I planned on becoming a mixing engineer, but because I wanted my own music to sound as good as the artists I looked up to.
In 2013, I earned a Diploma of Sound Production from SAE Institute Melbourne, deepening my technical understanding of music production.
In 2022, I launched AP West — and my music has since accumulated over 1 million streams, including a single track surpassing 900,000 streams.
I'm not just an engineer. I'm an artist too.
I understand the excitement, the nerves, and the passion that goes into releasing music — and that's exactly why I care about helping your music sound its absolute best.
Music you're proud to release.
How It Works
Submit Your Files
After booking, you'll receive a project submission form where you can upload:
- Raw vocal stems (no effects applied)
- Your instrumental/beat (stereo file)

Want certain ad-libs processed differently? Need beat mutes, transitions, drops, delays, or creative effects? Just include your notes in the form and I'll incorporate them into the mix where appropriate.

Once your files are received, I'll begin crafting your mix and master. Using industry-standard tools including FabFilter and Waves plugins, I'll:
- Balance vocals and instrumentation
- Enhance clarity and punch
- Create space and depth
- Ensure your vocals cut through the beat
- Optimize loudness for modern streaming platforms
- Make sure your song translates across multiple listening environments
Every project is mixed by hand with your genre, style, and goals in mind.
Review & Revisions
Once your first version is complete, you'll have the opportunity to review the track and provide feedback.
- Standard Package: Up to 3 revisions included
- Premium Package: Unlimited revisions included
The goal is simple: to make sure you're genuinely excited to release the final product.

This Service Isn't For Everyone
And that's intentional.
I work best with artists who take their music seriously — who understand that building a music career isn't about uploading one song and hoping for overnight success. It's about consistently releasing quality music, improving your craft, growing your audience, and showing up even when the results aren't immediate.
That's where professional mixing and mastering becomes an investment rather than an expense.
You're A Great Fit If:
- ✔You're a Hip-Hop or Rap artist who is serious about building a long-term music career.
- ✔You're consistently releasing singles, EPs, or albums and want your sound to evolve with every release.
- ✔You've developed your songwriting and recording skills and want your final product to reflect the quality of your music.
- ✔You record from home but don't have the knowledge, experience, or desire to handle mixing and mastering yourself.
- ✔You want your music to sound competitive alongside the artists you listen to every day.
- ✔You value working with an engineer who understands Hip-Hop and Rap music specifically.
- ✔You're willing to invest in the quality of your art.
This Service Is NOT For You If:
- ✘You're looking for the cheapest mixing service available.
- ✘You expect professional results from poor-quality recordings made through laptop microphones, AirPods, or phone microphones.
- ✘You're looking for a one-click AI solution rather than a personalized mixing and mastering process.
- ✘You release music casually and aren't concerned about improving your sound.
- ✘You're unwilling to collaborate, provide feedback, or participate in the revision process.
- ✘You expect one song to instantly create a successful music career.
The artists who get the best results are the ones who stay committed, continue improving, and treat their music like something worth investing in.
If that sounds like you, I'd love to help you create music you're proud to release.
