About

Trained to make other people’s music sound the way they meant it.

Roel van der Krabben, producer and mix engineer from 's-Hertogenbosch. Graduated cum laude as a Pro Audio Engineer & Music Producer at Sound Education Nederland.

The early years were mostly commercial audio: jingles, music videos and city campaigns, plus compositions for the Oeteldonk carnival. That work taught me to move fast and deliver inside tight briefs.

The focus is now shifting towards artistic productions with local musicians, starting with singer-songwriter Sanne van Uden. I don’t perform. My job is to facilitate: produce, mix, master.

That takes time and a room built for it: a studio where an artist can stay for several days, where tracking and mixing run into each other. That is what I am working towards.
