Get personalized feedback from Brooklyn’s go-to Hip-Hop engineer and producer.

We’re extremely excited to introduce you to the newest member of the Soundfly Mentor team: Leon Kelly.

If the name sounds familiar, it’s because Leon is one of the instructors of our Faders Up II: Advanced Mix Techniques course. And if any of these names sound familiar — Run The Jewels, Danny Brown, Action Bronson, Just Blaze, Kaytranada, Twin Shadow, Flatbush Zombies, Zach de la Rocha — well, then you’ve heard his work too.

Leon is a recording and mixing engineer based in Brooklyn, NY, who’s worked with some of the industry’s biggest artists for over a decade. He’s operated out of Just Blaze’s Stadium Red studio, Electric Lady Studios, Converse’s Rubber Tracks studio, and Nick Hook’s The Space Pit.

Learn more about Leon’s experience in this video and request a session with him to improve on your production, your sampling, your mixing, or just to get pro-level feedback on your tracks:
