Fred's primary focus is mastering. After years of experience in many areas of music; performing, live-sound, production, recording, and mixing (and of course mastering!), he has been drawn to mastering the most because of how technical it is, whilst still being wholly musical. He has learned from and shared credits with some of the worlds most prolific mastering engineers, and since 2021 has risen to the top 10% in his field (ranked by Muso.ai).
