I instantly felt that there was something special about sound and music. I became fascinated with the emotional potential of music. <br \/>Serge Gainsbourg&#8217;s Melody Nelson was my bedside record.<\/p>\n<p>I got into electronic music and started to learn synthesizers, MIDI, sequencing &amp; programming as well as computer assisted music. Electronic music made me realise I wanted to work with sound. It gave me the impulse to learn audio engineering. I moved forward by completing a Master degree in Audio Engineering and Signal Processing at Image &amp; Son Brest, France.<br \/> These years of studies were formative. It was the perfect place to experiment with analog, digital recording techniques and broaden my musical tastes. I discovered fascinating subjects in audio engineering such as acoustics, psycho-acoustics and signal theory.<\/p>\n<p>After graduating, I worked in the contemporary music scene and started to develop my experience as a mastering engineer. The first turning point in my career was an attended mastering session for an album I mixed and produced. I discovered a true craft and some kind of magic in mastering.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been living in Dublin since 2007\u00a0 and I happily call the Fair City home when I&#8217;m back from tour.<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">\u00a0I have been fortunate to meet many amazing and inspiring <a href=\"https:\/\/draftlab-sound.com\/index.php\/live-sound\/\">artists<\/a> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">&amp; crew.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">I\u2019ve worked in a large variety of indoor and outdoor venues where I enjoy solid teamwork.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I run my Dublin based mastering studio <a href=\"https:\/\/draftlab-sound.com\/index.php\/mastering\/\">Draftlab Mastering<\/a>, where I&#8217;ve mastered music for Irish and International artists.
