Working with Charles Connolly is always a pleasure. His professionalism and expertise shine through in every project he touches, ensuring a smooth and creative process from start to finish. You can trust that your track is in excellent hands, and by the time he’s done, it will have that unique spark only Charles can provide. His signature touch, sprinkled throughout the mix, elevates the music to a whole new level. Whether through subtle refinements or bold enhancements, you can be sure that Charles will take your song to new heights, making it sound better than you ever imagined.

Charles did some awesome work on my tracks. He has a great ear and finely tunes and tinkers with my mixes so that they sound so much more vibrant and alive. In particular I have been impressed on how he can make my vocals sound so much better and fuller. I thoroughly recommend Charles if you want to get your sound to the next level.

Charles is an absolute joy to work with. He has worked on two of my songs and has surpassed my expectations both times.

He has the ability to fully understand the sound I am going for - almost better than I do - and he has the skills and experience to be able to lift the song up to where it should be, and beyond.

I know for many independent artists, myself included, tight budgets mean it's not feasible to hire a mixing engineer for every song. However, hiring Charles has been a very worthwhile investment. Not only do I now have two high quality reference tracks I can use in my own mixing, just talking to Charles and picking his brains has taught me a great deal about mixing and improved my own skills.

If you're reading this and thinking about hiring Charles, just do it - you will not regret it!

Charles Has done two production/mix and master for me in the last couple years, very professional and talented musician, I was very happy with the results on both occasions. The vocal tuning was really out of this world and his production ideas are nothing less than genius!

We recorded our song "Green and Gold" and sent the stems to CC for some mixing, production and mastering. Couldn't be happier with the end result.
Charles is friendly, flexible and a pleasure to work with, and the results are always consistently good.

I’ve worked with Charles on two tracks now. It’s been smooth sailing without problems. I look forward to future projects and if you're looking to hire an engineer or producer. I highly recommend this one.

Charles is a very special person to work with. In 2021 I went to him with my song “Into The Wilderness”. Up to that point my songs had very much a “at home” sound and quality. I had no idea what a song could sound like if put in the right hands.
Charles takes a song and puts time and effort into every detail. He has this unique ability to hear things in a song and bring out a magical sound that you almost didn’t know was there. I remember hearing my song after he mixed and mastered it for the first time and was almost in tears. He didn’t just bring the song to life but he actually added parts that were missing or lacking in the original song.
He inspired me from the start to work harder at getting better at recording my sound and to this day I have people remark that this song should be on the radio with its quality.
He is the consummate professional and anyone who is looking to get that sound that they have been looking for must try Charles for their song. He will not disappoint you. To this day I look back on his work with amazement.
I highly, highly recommend Charles Connolly.

I got in touch with Charles initially due to the complexity and production quality of his own songs. To See My Lover Again and Europe in the Summertime are worlds apart in feel and yet share underlying depth and nuance that is presented deceivingly well through balance and dynamics.
Charles has mixed two of our songs (so far) and the standout for me has been his production ideas, adding harmonies and additional instrumentation, as well as being a great vocal producer - he really focuses on timing and phrasing - making vocals sound amazing! He genuinely has a passion and ear for music and this comes out in the dedication he puts towards each song. He doesn’t just do this by the numbers.
We’ll happily sign him up for the next project!

Before working with Charles there was always something lacking in my end product. A lack of delineation across instrumentation and a general lack of final polish... Charles now takes care of a final master of all of my tracks, however the term 'master' does him a discredit. What he actually does is lift the lid on the track and get into the detail on a stem by stem basis. The result being a tighter professional sound which enables my tracks to stand toe to toe with music created in studios with much higher budgets. (top end studio sound without top end studio prices).

Charles is straightforward, sensible and insightful. He maintains a constant sense of humour making him an absolute pleasure to work with.

I am also familiar with work he has done for other artists I am connected to and know that my views are shared across his client base.

Charles Connolly is the best in the business. I have had the massive pleasure of working with Charles on numerous occasions now and he never fails to deliver incredible work.

As an artist I dabble in music production, but my skills are nothing compared to CC. His musical ability is stunning, and he has added so much to every track I have sent him. He sees things I couldn’t see, he adds small touches which are nothing short of genius, his communication is excellent, and he will not stop until you are 100% delighted with the result.

We have had some back and forths before and discussions around specific elements of songs and he is just an absolute pleasure to work with, you can be direct with him and he will listen, you can tell him your vision and he will nail it.

I honestly don't know how he does it and I think if I spent a lifetime producing music I would still be nowhere near his level. If you want to turn a good song into a great song, Charles is your man. He will elevate your music to the next level and I would recommend him to anyone.

I’m more than happy to share my experience working with Charles—he truly is a brilliant talent. Here’s how everything unfolded: After the F R Music Project came to an end, I decided it was time to embark on my solo journey, and that’s when I reached out to Charles for mixing and mastering my very first project.

I sent Charles the stems for my song, "Crazy U," and from the moment he pressed play, it was clear he was in tune with its essence. He instinctively grasped the vibe and fully understood the purpose and emotion behind the track. Charles took my vision and elevated it to a whole new realm.

His meticulous attention to detail and genuine respect for the art form shone through in every aspect of the process. It was evident that he wasn’t just looking to polish the sound; he was committed to making my song resonate with a timeless quality that would allow it to stand the test of time. Working with Charles was not just a collaboration; it was a transformative experience that breathed life into my music in ways I had only dreamed of.

Charles is my go-to guy for all my songs. To date, he has mixed and mastered 12 of my tracks, and each one reflects his exceptional skill and artistry. As artists, we pour our hearts into our music, being transparent and exposing vulnerable parts of ourselves to the world. Charles, as an artist in his own right, truly understands this vulnerability and honors it. This is precisely why he maintains the integrity and respect for both the song and the artist.

His work speaks for itself, showcasing not only his technical prowess but also his deep appreciation for the emotional nuances that make each song unique. I am incredibly grateful for his collaboration and can’t recommend him highly enough.

In 2023 I wrote a song called "Make This Moment Last" which was an acoustic ballad. I went into the studio recorded the vocals, harmonies, and one acoustic guitar.
I then sat back and thought what am I going to do with it? I struggled for weeks trying to come up with a clear idea of how the production should sound, but I kept coming up blank.
In the end I decided it's time to work with a producer. Reaching out to Charles was not a hard decision as I had heard so much of his work on various playlists.
Thankfully he had the musical vision that I was lacking. He found the gold in the song and turned it into something special. The choice of instruments, the arrangement, the different shades, and the sentiment all blended together to sell the story of my song.
He puts in a lot of work and the results speak for themselves.
After it was released "Make This Moment Last" was voted number 5 in the New Artist Spotlight Top 20 which again demonstrates how good a producer he is.
If you want production quality turn to Charles Connolly!

Charles has worked on five of my songs, and it’s safe to say I’ve found my permanent engineer! His musicality and attention to detail are top notch, and he has a knack for producing exactly what I’m looking for with minimal discussion needed. I always know my songs are going to come back to me sounding better than I imagined! He’s also fair, honest, and a real hoot. Your only regret will be that you didn’t hire him sooner!

I've worked with Charles on three songs of my own and a collaboration with another artist and each time have been incredibly pleased. He has a great ear, and is always willing to go the extra mile in service of the song and he doesn't hesitate to drill down into the smallest detail to make the song the absolute best it can be. But he is also very careful to maintain the integrity of what he will often remind you is "your song." Super professional and a great sense of humor, I highly recommend Charles for your mixing and mastering needs!

Normally I mix and master myself, but I was always impressed with Charles work and decided to take a shot and see if with his help I could turn a good song into something great and memorable. He more than exceeded my lofty expectations, and achieved that goal in a timely and massively creative fashion. As a result, the song (One That Remains) that I hired him to mix and master is currently one of my most popular tracks, and is my most listened to track on the three major platforms.

Let me tell you something about this man! Charles will perfect your music and will take your music to a higher level! His music production skills are “Top Notch”! I’m talking Nile Rodgers, Bob Clearmountain , Jason Casaro type of production! If you don’t know whom they are look them up. For all of you record labels out there “Charles Connolly “ is the man to fulfill all of your “Audio Production” needs!

I asked Charles to mix and master my track "Not a Fool". I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted it to sound and Charles achieved this to the perfection. At the end, he got also involved in the production and I am really pleased with the song. So if you are looking for someone professional, fun to work with and who brings your song to its best, I can only recommend Charles.

First off, Charles is a nice guy and that's important to me. He mixed and mastered a collaboration between myself and London singer Eleanor Collides.

Charles' grip on the melancholy nature of the song was obvious from the start and he managed the delicate intensity in the mix. He listened to me, told me when I was wrong, and really made the song fly. The guy knows his stuff and I recommend him highly.

I've had the pleasure of working with Charles now on two tracks, both a full mix and master job, and both times I've been absolutely blown away by his attention to detail and ability to choose just the right instrument to add at just the right time. Charles has a wonderful way of knowing exactly what the track needs to compliment the existing parts without taking away from the essence of the song. I absolutely reccommend reaching out to Charles if you want to take your sound to the next level. You'll be amazed at the results.

My excellent collaboration with Charles started in 2023 and we have now made five songs together. I mostly just gave him my vocals and guitar tracks, sometimes a bit more, and he turned them into real works of art with his great creative ideas. The songs “A boy and his Porsche” and “The wolf is back” have been extremely well received. And I expect that the songs I will release next year “So früh” on the 21st of February and the German versions of the above two songs The Wolf, May 30th, and the Porsche Song, August 29th, will also be well received. I am very grateful to you Charles and look forward to more projects together.

Charles Connolly is a highly skilled music engineer who worked on two of my records, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. His passion and deep knowledge of music truly shine through in his work. He mixed my music to perfection and did an exceptional job with vocal tuning, making sure everything sounded just right. If you’re looking for a reliable and talented music engineer at an affordable rate, Charles is your go-to!

Simply put, Charles’ work changed the arc of my musical career.

He has a gift, pure and simple. He’s able to get the absolute best out of the artists he works with. He makes us sound better than we really are! And he’s also very generous with sharing his ideas for improving the songs that he mixes.

Check out my songs “BYE!” and “I Miss You” to hear his handiwork for yourself.

I have been blessed to work with some truly world-class engineers and Charles is on par with them all.

YOU WILL NOT REGRET HIRING CHARLES!!!

So whadaya think...?
