About Flaming Jangle Studios

Flaming Jangle Studios is run by flakebelly - an artist and mixing engineer based in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. I mix music for artists who want their work to sound honest, emotional, and beautifully finished - whether that means high-end modern polish or vintage-inspired grit.


I’m offering affordable mixing & mastering services from my full home studio setup. I’ve been writing, performing & recording for over 20 years, and mixing my own music professionally for the past 5. Now I’m bringing that experience to other independent musicians who want to get their sound right - at a price that makes sense.

Audio Examples

Here are a few tracks I’ve mixed - ranging from raw acoustic to detailed, modern productions.
Everything you hear was mixed - and most were mastered - by me at Flaming Jangle Studios. 

Services & Pricing

Mixing & Mastering – £20 per song (introductory rate)
One clear price. One complete service. I’ll take your raw tracks and shape them into a finished mix that’s ready for release – balanced, polished, and true to your sound.


Working on an EP or album?
Discounted rates are available for multi-song projects – just get in touch and I’ll be happy to provide a custom quote that fits your needs.


Whether it’s one track or a full release, you’ll receive the same care, clarity, and analogue/digital mix approach across every song.

What's Included:

Full stereo mix of your song
 

Mastering available (unless you’d prefer to master elsewhere)

 - Additional fee for mastering to 1/4" analogue tape on the Revox A77


Hybrid workflow using high-end analogue gear and premium plugins
 

WAV, MP3 or DDP delivery

Gear & Tools

I work from a hybrid analogue/digital studio designed to offer both precision and colour. My setup blends high-end plugins with carefully chosen outboard gear - so your mixes can be as clean, warm, punchy, or textured as your music needs. Your tracks can be sent out of the box and through my analogue chain for vintage grit, glue, and rich summing, adding warmth and cohesion that digital can’t replicate.

Mastering & Final Delivery Formats

In addition to mixing, I offer mastering services tailored for the final format – whether you're releasing digitally, on CD, or on vinyl


Digital Masters – final WAVs optimised for streaming or download


CD Masters – Red Book–compliant DDP files, ready for duplication or replication (includes PQ sheet, CD-Text, ISRCs if provided)


Vinyl Pre-Masters – high-resolution WAVs (24-bit) with safe levels, mono low end, and dynamic range preserved; includes a cue sheet for your cutting engineer


I also offer analogue tape mastering using a vintage Revox A77, providing added warmth, natural compression, and the unique character that only tape can deliver. 


Don’t have ISRCs or a UPC code yet? No problem. I can deliver your master now and embed codes later if needed – just let me know



The Process

Here’s how it works when you book a mix with Flaming Jangle Studios:

Step 1 – Reach Out

Send me an email letting me know you'd like a mix. Whether you're ready to go or just curious, I’ll reply promptly and answer any questions you have.

If you’re happy to move forward, I’ll send you:


  • A short client form to gather info about the song, artist name, release details, etc.
     
  • A brief info sheet explaining how everything works
     
  • An invoice for the mix

Step 2 – Payment

Once you’ve had a chance to look over the info pack and you're happy to go ahead, the next step is simply to pay the invoice I’ve already sent.


  • For singles, full payment is needed before I begin mixing
     
  • For EPs or multiple songs, we can do a 50% deposit upfront, with the rest paid later on
     

As soon as payment’s confirmed, you can send your files over and I’ll get started.
Nothing will be mixed or sent back until payment is received - but I’ll keep everything clear and easy along the way.

Step 3 – Send Your Files

After payment, you'll send me your:


  • Individual audio tracks (clearly labelled, in the original recording format)
     
  • A rough mix
     
  • Any notes or reference tracks if you have them
     

You can use Dropbox, WeTransfer, Google Drive, or any other file-sharing method you prefer.
I’ll check everything when it comes in and let you know if anything's missing or needs editing.

Step 4 – Mixing & Mastering

Once I’ve received your files and everything’s good to go, I’ll get to work on your mix.

Turnaround is usually 2–3 working days for a single track. I’ll keep you updated along the way.

You’ll receive:


  • The first version of the mix for review
     
  • Mix revisions accepted within 30 days (for mixing & mastering-only projects)
     
  • Once you approve the mix, I’ll apply a final mastering pass to bring everything up to release-ready level
     
  • Final delivery in all required formats: WAV, MP3, DDP - ready for streaming, download, CD or vinyl
     

If you'd prefer to master your track elsewhere, just let me know and I’ll send over an unmastered version instead.
