SERVICES

MIXING

A professional mix must be sonically great, perfectly balanced and well-made. But what really makes a mix stand out is, when it enhances the essence of the song. We aim for both.

Our mixes always transport the emotion of the song right into the listener. Your music should touch their soul, don’t you think? We will always go out of our way to get the best results out the material you provide.

Of course you’re always a part of the process. You can send us reference tracks and we will keep working on your tracks until you are 100% satisfied with the result. For outstanding productions we will send your music to our label contacts.

MASTERING

Mastering is the final stage of music production. The last touch before your material can go out into the masses. With our analog and digital tools we make sure they get the best result possible.

Elevating certain sonic characteristics, enhancing the stereo field or simply make it loud enough. These are just some vital parts of mastering.We will provide clean and powerful Masters for your tracks that cut through the noise in digital streaming platforms, but still keep their dynamics.

You need special masters for vinyl, iTunes or other occasions? No problem. Just let us know what different formats you need and we take care of the rest.

FULL PRODUCTION

The whole no-brainer package including Recording, Producing, Mix & Master. Go big or go home!

I work with you on your music as a producer until we get the absolute most out of it. This includes songwriting and arrangement, as well as adding additional programmings.

You already have a specific recording studio in mind? No problem, I can work with you there. You don't have the budget for a professional studio? I can record all instruments (except drums) and vocals pretty much everywhere, your rehearsal room for example. Together we make sure, that your tracks have the highest quality possible and are played tight.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

What is immediately noticeable: the crisp production. ARROGANZ were never frugal in this respect and felt less at home in the cozy black metal hobby cellar. From the cutting guitars to the concrete bass foundation and the fantastic drums (that snare!), “Morsus” is probably the most transparent and powerful, but at the same time most atmospheric production the band has ever had.

Review of *Arroganz – Morsus* on metal.de

One thing that really sets Timo apart is his patience and commitment to customer satisfaction. No matter how many times we asked for adjustments or changes, he was always willing to listen and tweak until each track reached its full potential. Through his expertise, Timo brought our songs to life in a way we never expected. He has added a warmth and depth that takes the whole EP to a new level. Timo has managed to preserve the raw energy of our music while giving each track a polished, professional edge that we are incredibly proud of.

Joey / Across Oceans

The production is broad, fat and crystal clear. Everything has its place and sounds simply great. Through my studio headphones, this album is an experience without anything being distracting. TIMO ROTTEN was responsible for the mix and LASSE LAMMERT for the mastering. Good music and a good production together result in high quality. Thumbs up from me.

Review of Arroganz – Morsus on zephyrs-odem.de

Our noise band VERDERVER has been searching for a long time for someone who could cast all our multi-layered elements into a solid form. Harmonizing all the harshness and brutality with the subtly playful synthesizers was anything but easy. However, Timo has mastered it brilliantly. He brought a clarity to our extremely technical sound that we couldn’t have wished for better. We can’t wait to work with him again to further refine our relentless tracks.

Vincent / Verderver

What makes a sound engineer a good engineer? For us, a sound person in the studio has to become part of the band. He should feel and understand our message and approach. He should know where we are coming from – musically and personally. At the same time, he should interpret what we deliver and show us his thoughts on it. The ability to add something to our art without changing its essence is another key skill – and of course complete control over his craft. All of this is Timo.

-K- / Arroganz

We couldn’t be happier with the mastering of our Coralea EP by Timo Rotten. From the beginning, Timo was incredibly attentive and thorough, taking the time to really understand our artistic vision and the sound we wanted to achieve. His approach to mastering is very collaborative, and he has a knack for making you feel comfortable in the process by clearly explaining each step and making adjustments based on our feedback without hesitation.
