Mixing - Engineering and Producing for $500

Looking for someone to mix and master whilst retaining the sincere and organic character of your material? Look no further. With 15 years' experience within London's underground scene, Très-vain specialises in delivering mixes at their highest potential without over-polishing the final product. Mixes will sound as unique as the individual creators.

Minky Très-vain is an English musician, mix and master engineer, and producer. Having spent the last fifteen years making records in the London underground garage and punk scene, Très-vain is opening up his services to this international platform.

Très-vain follows an Albini-esque philosophy of providing a service rather than an opinion unless asked, and translating artists' intent into a full sounding mix regardless of the recording budget.

Having started his mixing career by producing lofi noise-punk records, Très-vain's discography has shown nothing but growth. Whilst the level of polish may change from record to record, the organic trademark of his mixes have persevered.

Historically, Très-vain has had a very hands-on approach to his producing and mixing. Working closely with the artist, he strives to capture exactly what they can hear in their heads whilst writing their material. To do this, Très-vain would often work with the artist in the rehearsal space prior to recording taking place, ensuring that he and they were on the same page from day one of a project. Since the covid19 pandemic it has instead been more common for Très-vain to receive fully recorded stems from the artist, with the material having been recorded by the artist themselves or by a studio local to them. Endeavouring to continuously maintain his clients' satisfaction with the final mixes, Très-vain has taken great care to preserve strong communication with the artist despite the remote nature of the work.

Currently working from a small studio set-up in London, Très-vain has connections across the capital with access to studio spaces of varying sizes and cost.
