Tranquility Base was established in 2023 by college radio and music industry veteran Steve Branson in Portland, Oregon to help independent musicians and bands produce professional-sounding releases.
With over 30 years of experience as a recording artist, producer, and club / radio DJ, I specialize in helping music creators de-mystify the complexities of audio mixing and mastering and take their performances to the next level.
As your Audio Engineer, I want to help with affordable, accessible services that provide everything you need to meet current recording industry standards. Work is performed in a space with acoustic and computer-assisted treatment designed to achieve optimal accuracy.
Mixing and Mastering can be a confusing and overwhelming process - I am a partner that will treat you with the patience and respect your creativity deserves.
