I'm Nathan, a midwest-based Recording Engineer and Producer focused on albums, bands, and capturing performances.
Recently, I’ve worked with a variety of musicians, in genres such as shoegaze, indie rock, and freak folk.
I owe my love for music to my childhood experiences in a guitar shop, taking lessons. In college, I've played in various bands, and for countless recording sessions.
My recording background began when I was a teenager, and I've been recording since. Much of my ideology and processes are reinforced by my education in analog electronics. I tech my own equipment, and I've worked as a studio tech.
I'm proficient in Pro Tools, and I record to tape. I own and maintain a Tascam 85-16b 16-track 1" recorder, and a Tascam TSR-8 8-track 1/2" recorder. In the past, I've worked primarily from my studio, studios on the Indiana University Bloomington campus, Bloomington's Primary Sound Studios, Chicago's Exit Slip, Palisade Studios, and more. I am confident working in any studio.
In 2023, I produced video content for Hum Drum Press, an indie record label from Bloomington, IN. In 2024, I recorded albums, I played gigs in Bloomington, and I made new friends. In 2025, I packed up and moved to Chicago. There, I worked in community theater, live sound, and I mixed and mastered albums.
In my time in Chicago, I was a partner at producer Max Grazier's Chicago studio, Exit Slip.
In 2026, I am continuing to make new music, new friends, and I'm exploring new avenues of creativity.
I'm thrilled to have good work to do, and I can't wait for more.
Check out the projects I've been fortunate to work on.
Besides music, I love making things. I am a photographer, and I practice other crafts like woodworking, analog electronic repair, engineering and design, and fixing all manner of things.
