About


I’m Eric, probably better known as Crowley, the audio engineer behind Crow Audio.I specialize in punk, hardcore, modern rock, metal, and alternative music, but I love a lot of different styles and I’m always excited to work on great songs regardless of genre.The goal isn’t sterile perfection, it’s impact. Mixes that feel powerful, clear, and alive.Having spent the better half of two decades playing in bands, I approach every project from a songwriter’s perspective, focusing on energy, feel, and serving the song rather than processing it for its own sake.I work with artists both remotely and on location, from producing, recording and editing through mixing and mastering, to create finished music that captures the energy of the performance and is ready for release.Got a song you’re excited about? I’d love to hear it.

TESTIMONIALS


Hear from the artists who've trusted Crow Audio with their music.


"I brought the idea of Crow being our producer to the band cause I've known him and played shows with him for eons. He's shown me songs he's written, and I loved every one of them.Despite the fact that we're "bffs," I trusted that he was the ear that my band needed. I trusted that I/we could run a tune by him and he'd know pretty quickly what the goal was and be able to convey that to us.Outside of the producing bit... My band slapped together some songs we had "finished" really quickly with him in town... He knew that the performance of those songs weren't top notch but understood the assignment.He took those songs and worked tirelessly to correct the bits that were a little off... Essentially, Crowley took the songs that we had written and didn't change what they were but still made them better.Bottom line is: Crowley doesn't just mix and master your shit. He dives into your shit to a point where he seems to know what you're trying to say and works with you to help you say it."— Travis Davis (Los Bozos)


"Working with Crow Audio was a fantastic experience. His expertise, attention to detail, and professionalism made the entire process seamless, allowing us to concentrate on our performance without worrying about anything behind the scenes.The quality of the final product is a testament to his skill and dedication."— Chris (Los Bozos)


"I’ve known Crowley for nearly twenty years, but don’t take that to mean I’m blowing smoke up anyone's ass when I say everything about recording this single was on point. He’s professional, punctual, and he sets up quick. You can tell he takes serious pride in his work, not cutting corners, pushing us to record one more take. He met us at Primal Note, at our monthly room, with everything we needed to track drums, other instruments, and vocals.Incredibly quick mixing turnaround time, listened to the couple notes I had, but honestly there was barely a need to. If you want to record heavy music; punk, hardcore, metal, Crowley has the ear for it. He knew how I wanted this song to sound before I even heard the first mix.Highly recommended, and will be back with Crow Audio to record the rest of the album as soon as possible."— Johnny (The Human Cost)
