Mixerman's Ultimate Guide to Producing Records, Music & Songs

MIXERMAN’S Ultimate Guide to Producing Records isn’t a traditional textbook — it’s a fully immersive guide that covers the entirety of the record making process. Drawing from a decades-long career producing records for both major labels and independent artists, I break down the technical into understandable terms, but also address the creative, strategic, and political decisions that drive professional record production.

This book connects the dots between musical decisions and technical ones. Students learn how and why production decisions are made — all presented in a clear, conversational tone that supports both classroom use and self-guided study.

Each term I hold a limited number of slots for virtual class visits and Q&As with programs that have adopted the Guide. If that interests you, tell me about your course through the contact portal.

Use your institution email if you have one — it speeds up verification.
