Hi there! I'm Jake Linder, a versatile audio professional with 6+ years of hands-on experience across recording, mixing, mastering, live sound, and national tour operations. I work across multiple genres, fluent in Pro Tools, Logic Pro X, and analog/digital console workflows. I’ve helped independent artists achieve 100K+ streams in their first month and original/ghostwritten content that’s accumulated 20M+ streams. I’m equally comfortable behind a console, on a stage, or coordinating touring logistics. I thrive on bridging creative development with practical production and touring execution, driving artist growth, release strategy, and engaging live performances. Whether I’m crafting a track end to end in the studio or booking and promoting a national tour, I bring reliability, road tested know how, and a collaborative spirit to every project.

    jadeluvi- Destination

    Jadeluvi is an influencer based out of Los Angeles with little to no prior professional recording experience. Jade and I worked together to craft a unique blend of genres for what would become the debut single “Destination.” I wrote and arranged the instrumental track, then co-wrote lyrics and melodies alongside Jade. I mixed and mastered the track myself, and helped guide Jade through all the hurdles of releasing a song. She reached over 100,000 views on YouTube for the music video in under a month, and 100,000 streams on Spotify in the same timeframe. It’s an absolute joy getting to work alongside creative, driven, and talented people and I look forward to working with you!
