PHILIPP ELTZ

MIX ENGINEER & MUSIC PRODUCER

Vienna & N.Y.

I'll get the SONG you HEAR in your HEAD to come out of the SPEAKERS.

You've recorded a great song. Now let's make it sound like one. As a mixer, musician and songwriter, I bring a second set of ears and a fresh perspective to help your music shine.

YOU ALREADY DID THE HARD PART. LET’S MAKE IT SOUND LIKE YOU IMAGINED IT.

Approach

You’ve written the song. Reworked it. Recorded take after take until it finally felt right.The mix shouldn’t turn it into somebody else’s record.It should take everything that’s already there — the emotion, the energy, the imperfections that make it yours — and make it hit exactly the way you imagined.That’s my job.

MIXED BY A MUSICIAN, NOT JUST AN ENGINEER.

About

Hi,

I’m Philipp — mix engineer, producer, songwriter, and guitarist.

I grew up between Vienna and New York, surrounded by different sounds, scenes, and approaches to music. Those influences still shape how I work today.

I love the technical side of mixing. I can obsess over a compressor setting for longer than I’d like to admit.

But nobody listens to a song because the compressor sounds great.

They listen because it makes them feel something.

That’s always the goal.

When I’m not working on music, you’ll usually find me playing guitar, writing music, getting lost in the best sci-fi I can find, or hunting down Vienna’s next great cheesecake spot!

How I can help
bring your music to life.

How I canhelp bringyour musicto life.

MIXING+

Some songs really only require basic volume and panning adjustments and they’re done. Others ask for more automation and creative (but subtle) ways to emphasize the small details and intimacy of a performance. Then there are the songs that have a clear, energetic pulse, a push-and-pull dynamic that asks to be pushed even further. Knowing which is which, when to lean in and when to back off, is what makes a great mix. Together we'll take your song to the next level.

PRODUCTION+

From adding a simple bass line or background harmony, to taking one of your song ideas and developing it into a full living and breathing arrangement, I can be your whole backing band, or just play the tambourine here and there—whichever you need. I’m blessed to have great musicians as colleagues so if your song needs a string arrangement a brass section or a rocking drum performance we can make it happen.

EDITING+

Editing is a very big part of the creative process and not to be underestimated. You’ve probably heard that big Hollywood films were made in the editing room. The same can be said for the music recording world. Whether you just need some basic fade in/outs or require more time intensive editing like drum timing correction or vocal tuning, I’ll get your performances sounding the absolute best they can while always staying natural and musical.

SONGWRITING+

If you’ve written some great lyrics but have no melody to go along with them, or if you’ve got a fantastic chord sequence but need some inspiration for the chorus, let me hear what you’re working on. I promise I can help you finish songs you’ll be proud of.

Get In Touch

Working on
something special?

I'd love to hear it. Whether you're an artist, a producer, or a whole team mid-project,
the best place to start is a conversation.

Let's chat
How do you like receiving files?+
When you're ready to send me your tracks I will email you a PDF with easy, step-by-step instructions on how exactly to prepare, bounce and send your files.
What's the revision process like?+
Collaborative. You send notes and we'll talk them through. We keep going until your songs sound and feel right. I want you to feel safe asking for changes.
What actually happens after I send you a song?+
Once I've imported all your files and reference tracks into my system we can have a phone chat and discuss the direction you'd like me to take with your song/s. I'll then start mixing and send you something to listen to within 1-2 days via private link. From there we'll refine until it's right. I'll then prep and send your final deliverables.
Who do you usually work with?+
I work with musicians, songwriters and producers at every level and stage of a production. So whether you're in your bedroom writing songs and need help with them or you're a seasoned band/musician looking to record your next composition/s or you're a label needing production and mixing support (or a mixture of all these things) you're in the right place.
What about rates?+
While a “one-size-fits-all” approach to rates and pricing would certainly make things easier, I know that every project—and every artist—is different, with their own needs, goals, and budget. That’s why I’d much rather have a conversation with you than simply throw out a number. Tell me a little about your project, what you’re looking to achieve, and what you’re working with, and together we’ll figure out an approach that makes sense for both of us.
