Tracking

You have songs and need them recorded well. Say what you play, how many of you there are, and what the performance needs to feel like.

Mixing

You have tracks and want them to become a record. Send the sessions or stems and a couple of references you want yours to sit next to.

Finishing

You have a mix and need it ready to release. Say where it’s going — streaming, vinyl, a video — and when.

Not sure which you need, or need all of it? Describe the project and John will tell you straight what the room can and can’t do for it.

One room.
One set of ears.

Hills East is a small studio, on purpose. You work directly with John from the first message to the last file — no front desk, no hand-offs, nobody in the room who doesn’t need to be there.

Whatever you play and wherever the record stands, tell John what it needs to become and he’ll tell you honestly what the room can do for it.

How a session comes together.

Talk it through

Send John the songs, rough demos, or a voice memo, plus a couple of records you want yours to sit next to. He’ll come back with a plan, a rough timeline, and straight answers.

Get in the room

Load in, get comfortable, dial the sounds at the source. The session runs at the pace of the performance — nobody watches the clock louder than the music.

Finish and release

Mixes go back and forth until they feel right. Then finals, formats, and a clear list of what you’re walking away with — ready for release.

Book a session.

This goes straight to John. Tell him what you’re making and where it stands; he’ll come back with a plan and straight answers.
