Jake Janzen
Jake Janzen
Jake has a passion for music. Not only does he like discovering new music, but his passion also lies in being part of the process of bringing new music and the artists’ vision to life. He sees recording and mixing as a sonic canvas where layers of sound are blended together to create a sonic painting.
Jake has been recording and mixing music for over 30 years. He started recording his own bands on 2 track cassette tapes, then to 4 track tapes and then to the digital medium just as it was getting started. He was always experimenting and learning. 20 years ago he started recording bands like The Remnants, Well Charged, Smurk and other local artists.
In 2010, he enhanced a partnership with band mate Phil Clancy and recording artist Josh Gabriel offering premium services. During this time he recorded and mixed many bands such as The Baudelaires (Reggae/Ska), Eclectic Vinyl Orchestra (Swing/Jazz), Demonihil (Death Metal), Pauly and the Blowbots (Punk), Berkuhrhogg (Rock), Other Moons (Soul), DISMAJ (Avant-garde) and more. He further enhances the recording process, combining live studio recording with multi-camera live video.
Jake’s strength is understanding and adapting to the style and workflow of the artists in the studio. Keeping the artists’ preferences in mind, Jake works to make the artists feel comfortable and bring out the best in their performances. It’s the combination of these performances and technically capturing great recordings that make a great final product.
