I am a producer (in the wide sense of the term) specialized in recording, mixing and mastering of metal and rock bands. I am in Montpellier, in the South of France, and I have the possibility to move all over France, Europe and the rest of the world for the recording sessions and to mix the recorded material back in the studio.
Being myself a musician (guitar player and singer of the band Kalisia - often asked to appear on the projects I work on) and can easily understand the fears and problems, expectations and desires of other musicians. I also do live sound for some bands (Cynic, Malmonde, To-Mera, Hegemon, Bomb Scare Crew, etc).
Thanks to very adapted and attractive prices, the Tower Studio undoubtedly represents THE solution for your albums or demos, weither it be for a complete production, for mixing your material or just for mastering. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any question, if you need a quotation, or for anything else...
Thank you for coming and see you very soon!
Brett Caldas-Lima
