Minute One Production

UNCOVER A PATH TO NAVIGATING THE NEW WORLD OF MUSIC CREATION WHERE THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN PRODUCTION, MIXING AND MASTERING ARE BLURRING AND RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING...

Learn how to predictably and profitably finish music productions —EVERYTHING you need to know to thrive as an independent artist without needing a dedicated mix engineer, mastering engineer, or any of the other “Gatekeepers” that are standing in your way.

Hi I’m Andrew Johnston

The traditional boundaries between audio production, mixing, and mastering are breaking down in an empowering change that benefits artists just like you. Now more than ever the opportunity is there to take a production from point A-Z without having to farm out work to multiple expensive professionals. When you work with Andrew we get started creating a vibe right from Minute 1!

When Lana Del Ray’s production team worked on her album “Lust for Life” they emphasized that they mixed the songs as they went along, and that there usually wasn’t a clearly defined separate mix stage. “ Lana’s producer Dean Reid said “I only think that we are mixing when it is time to send a bounce to the mastering engineer. Otherwise I think of mixing and processing more as production.”

And Tony Visconti emphasized that he likes to get a vibe from minute one when he produced David Bowies classic track heroes:

WE WOULD START CREATING A VIBE FROM MINUTE ONE...

So now that you can do everything on your own, you’re own you’re all good right?…right?

I know how overwhelming it can feel to get started. Heck, I’ve been a struggling artist for most of my adult life. But I believe in the philosophy of beginning with the end in mind and getting a vibe from minute 1. And I believe I can help that approach work for you and benefit you with your productions.

Working with me you get a trusted set of hands that can teach you how to navigate the entire  production, mixing and mastering phases on your own. I’m a multi instrumentalist that can play most of the instruments found in typical pop or tick productions. For anything else I’ll show you how we can leverage platforms like SoundBetter and various sound libraries and MIDI packs to get the job done right.

I work with indie artists just like yourself all the time to create finished productions with vibe and soul. I believe in getting a vibe from minute one and then taking a whatever it takes approach to deliver a solid, releasable track using my unique approach that begins with the end in mind. At every step of the way we’ll be laying down parts that sound definitive and perfectly support your song ideas.

Whether you are just starting out with an a capella on your i-phone or you have something more fleshed out with chords, I can meet you where you are and take you where you want to go.

So start beginning with the end in mind now and build a vibe from minute one by booking a consultation call with Andrew today!
