Hi! My name is Matt Rifino. I am a 5x EMMY Award Winning Music Mix Engineer. Over the last 25 years I’ve worked with over 1,200 artists mixing 5,000 plus songs. In the end is it really about the gear? Does the end listener care what reverb was used on the vocal? NO! They are listening because they want to feel something. They want to relate to the music. They want to be happy, be sad, smile, cry, scream, fall in love, breakup, jump up and down. My goal is to squeeze the most of those emotions out of every song I mix. First and foremost I'm an avid music listener and live for those moments of connection with the music. My life's mission is to help bring those feelings to as many people as I can. I don't care about gear. I care about the artists, the listeners, and the music. What is your vision for the project and how I can help you achieve it? What kind of energy and emotion do you want share with the world? What do you want the listener to feel? When mixing a song I want to know that so I can help you take the listener to those places. It's your song and I'm here to help translate the sounds in your head into the hearts and minds of the audience. ? I bring that same philosophy to your music for live streaming, concert, and promotional performances airing on the web and television. It's not just another performance. It's your performance. I want to give the same attention and care to the mix that was given to the writing and performing. ? If you are looking for someone to help take your vision over the finish line please reach out and let's talk. Please inquire about my very reasonable rates for independent artists.

I live and breath music, I know instinctively what sound you're going for and what the song needs in order to connect with it's audience. I am also able to hire the right musicians to take the project to where it needs to be if you're aiming to compete at the very highest level.

Sound and its many forms (Music, Field Recordings, Comedy, Talk Radio, Podcasts, Lectures, Machine Noises, etc) have been a fascination for me since I was a young boy. Recording the world around me, writing songs and skits, and manipulating sounds have held my attention for most of my life. I've played in bands since I was a young teen, and eventually found minor success and much satisfaction, when I moved to Minneapolis, MN in 2002 and dove into the music scene there. I eventually met my bandmates and we formed a band called Estate. As a member of Estate, I have toured, released albums, eps, and remixes, and placed/licensed dozens of tracks to various television programs, and even film. During this time in Estate, I also began my career and a professional postproduction broadcast mix engineer, sound designer, and composer. Tirering of the advertising world, I changed paths to focus on my family, spirituality, and sustainability. To this end, we sold everything in Mpls and moved our family to rural northwest MN. We now live on an old 40-acre dairy farm in the mystical Leaf Mountains in beautiful Ottertail County. Our two daughters, three cats, two dogs, 30 chickens, and our beloved forested hills, form a small but wonderful world that my wife and I enjoy immensely. Music remains an integral part of my life, identity, and income. I produce using Ableton live (user since 2004 v2 I believe), guitars, basses, synths, and of course a wide palette of VST instruments, VST effects, and other digital goodies. I am interested in collaborations, work-for-hire composition, remixing, sound design (the SFX kind, post-production style), game audio using Unreal Engine 5 and Gamemaker Studio, podcast production and editing, and all-around audio shenanigans. Hit me up for any or all of these services, or just to shoot the shiz! Much Love, Dan Kramer 2023
