About

My name is Ian Willen, I’m a freelance audio engineer and producer based out of Philadelphia, PA. My experience in the field comes from a variety of projects either through my education as a Music Tech student at Temple University, or involving myself in projects such as composing for independent films and producing records for myself and peers.

I believe my experience of living in Philadelphia, operating my own house show venues, and being apart of the wider music and art community, gives me a level of understanding and communicating that helps brings the clients needs to life in a streamlined manner.

I have skills working in Pro-Tools, Ableton, FL studio, and Wise for recording and mixing. Along with the technical skills, I have no qualms with experimenting/searching for that sound to bring your project to life.
