Tom Hackwell
RECORDING / PRODUCTION / MIXING / SONGWRITING

I'm a versatile and musical producer/mix and recording engineer and musician, experienced in recording and producing many genres, from hard rock, to folk and much else in between. My diverse skillset means I can operate as a sonic 'one stop shop' for many musical projects.

I work from my own custom recording studio space and also have access to multiple top-quality recording studios in Bristol who afford me preferential rates.

​

Services I provide:

​

- Recording - anything from demos to full-length, radio-ready albums.

- Mixing - creating a complete song from recorded 'stems'.

- Production - working alongside the artist to realise/help develop their artistic vision.

- Songwriting / Arranging - working with the artist to make the song/prject the best it can be.

​

I love to work with people who are looking to collaborate with the producer on an artistic level, and who are striving to push sonic boundaries.

I firmly believe that it's important to build a record up on strong foundations, and so I aim to meticulously cultivate the right sounds at the source, before anything hits tape. the idea of recording any old thing, with a view to shaping it later, tends to turn me off. 

Some of my favourite sessions have been with Sylvia Massy, Bite the Buffalo and The St Pierre Snake Invasion.

​

Tracks I've produced/mixed have been played on mainstream radio including BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6 and have been added to major Spotify editorial playlists. I've also recently composed, mixed and produced the soundtrack for a Netflix short documentary.
