Starting from your project
The best results come from the multitrack session or stems, not from upmixing a stereo file. I work from the mix we already have to preserve its identity and intention.
Dolby Atmos mixing for immersive releases.
Dolby Atmos lets a song move around the listener instead of sitting in front of them. I create spatial mixes that stay true to your stereo version and add a new dimension of depth, detail and emotion.

Why Dolby Atmos matters
Spatial audio has become a mainstream way to listen: Dolby Atmos music plays on Apple Music, Amazon Music, TIDAL and other services, on headphones, phones, soundbars and compatible speakers. For an artist, it is a chance to be heard in a more immersive way, with every element given its own place.
A good Atmos mix is not a stereo mix with reverb thrown around the room. It is a creative reimagining: deciding what stays anchored, what floats, what surrounds the listener, while the song keeps its full power in stereo, because that is how many people will still hear it.
How I work
Placing elements in space
Using the bed and objects of the Dolby Atmos format, I place vocals, instruments and effects where they add emotion: a guitar that circles, an ambience that opens the room, a vocal that stays intimate and close.
Restraint and impact
Not everything should move. I use space with intent, so that each spatial move supports the song instead of distracting from it.
Translation to headphones
Most listeners will hear Atmos on headphones through a binaural render. I check that render carefully, so the immersive result holds up there as well as on speakers.
What you receive
- A Dolby Atmos master file ready for delivery through your distributor, built to current industry standards
- A binaural headphone preview so you can review the spatial mix easily
- Your stereo version stays untouched
- Revisions as defined in your quote
- Guidance on delivering the Atmos file to your distributor or label
How to prepare your project
- Send the final stereo mix, together with its multitrack session or stems
- Export stems as 24-bit WAV files, all starting from the same point
- Tell me about the feeling you want from the immersive version, and share any references
- Note the elements that must stay centred (lead vocal, kick, bass)
- Check that your distributor accepts Dolby Atmos deliveries

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a stereo mix first?
The Atmos mix is built from the final mix and its stems, so a finished stereo version is the starting point. I can handle both the stereo mix and the Atmos version, which keeps the creative intent consistent.
Which platforms play Dolby Atmos music?
Apple Music, Amazon Music and TIDAL, among others. Availability depends on your distributor and on the listener's device.
How will I hear my Atmos mix?
On headphones through a binaural render, or on an Atmos-capable speaker system or soundbar. I send you a binaural preview to review.
Can you do Atmos for a release mixed by someone else?
Yes, as long as I can receive the multitrack session or stems of the project.
How is Dolby Atmos mixing priced?
There are no fixed rates. Each project is quoted individually, depending on the number of tracks and the complexity of the mix.
