Matt Poirier

I'm a recording and mixing engineer based in Philadelphia, working out of a room I've spent years tuning to feel right. My work spans indie, folk, experimental, and chamber pop — basically anything where the performance and the sonics need to feel inseparable.

I started engineering because I couldn't stop thinking about why certain records felt the way they did. Not the songs — the sound. The way a vocal sits in a mix. The way a room shapes a drum kit. That obsession hasn't faded.

I believe the best engineering is invisible. You shouldn't hear my work — you should hear the artist, just more clearly and more powerfully than they could capture alone.
