Biography

For over twenty years Richard has worked in frontline audio engineering. During this time he has established a solid reputation and is widely regarded as the ‘go to’ mix engineer for many heritage artists such as The Who and Thin Lizzy.

Additionally, Richard has been heavily involved with surround sound technologies since the early 2000’s and was one of the first mix engineers in the UK to be Dolby Atmos Certified.  Since his accreditation, Richard has mixed and remixed well over 1000 songs/titles in Dolby Atmos/Spatial Audio including artists such as Michael Kiwanuka, The Kinks, Gabriels, Traffic, Ólafur Arnalds, Robin Trower, Ghetts, Def Leppard, Kiasmos, Foals & Motorhead.
