Something’s wrong. I’ve be ghosted
I posted a 5 star review on 4/6 that you can see if you scroll down. Mike did amazing work on my my song and got everything back to me 6 days from the time I sent the project to him. I was convinced I found my guy moving forward. But things changed after this. I sent another song in late May. This one took longer to get to me (3 weeks) but it was sent with an apology for the delay and lack of communication. He told me he had some personal issue that pulled him away from work. I told him I understood and I figured it was an anomaly. I decided I wouldn’t hold it against him. My latest project was sent 7/9. After 2 1/2 weeks, he sent me the mix (07/26). I approved of it and told him we can move to mastering. It’s been 2 weeks and I have yet to get my master. But not only that, I have yet to get even a response to all the emails I sent regarding it. I’ve reached out to both Mikesmixmaster@gmail and well as the contact@ one. I will say that from the beginning he was not one for email correspondence. If it had to do with a revision to the mix he’d respond but other than that there was no communication. To be ghosted like this is not consistent with the majority of his reviews but one of his more recent reviews details an experience consistent with mine and I have had this happen for my last two tracks. So there is a pattern beginning to emerge. I will not assume this is a scam which such little evidence. But I do suspect that something has happened that has affected Mike’s ability to conduct business the way he did in the past. In any case, I do not believe this is the best time to work with this man. I strongly recommend against it. It’s a shame cause he did such great work. But I guess I’ll be shopping for a new engineer.
Response from Mike's Mix & MasterAug 12, 2026
Christopher, I’m sincerely sorry. Your review is fair, and the lack of communication you experienced was not acceptable. I had unexpected personal circumstances that kept me away from the studio longer than anticipated, followed by a backlog when I returned. While that explains the delay, it doesn’t excuse my failure to keep you updated—especially after you had already trusted me with multiple projects. Your project has now been completed and delivered, and I have also included an Apple Digital Masters upgrade at no additional cost due to the inconvenience. I really appreciate the patience and understanding you showed me previously, and I’m disappointed that I allowed this experience to fall so far below the standard of service you received from me before. I’m working to get things back on track and improve communication so this does not become the experience clients can expect from Mike’s Mix & Master. Thank you again for allowing me to complete your project.
