About

I’m Michael Samuel, a Music Producer, Sound Engineer, and Computer Science graduate based in London. I combine hands-on live sound mixing and troubleshooting with audio production, sound design, and music theory, using tools like Ableton Live and Pro Tools to deliver reliable results in both creative and technical environments.

Alongside my audio work, I build and support software and data workflows—solving technical support issues, developing automation scripts, and working with databases and cloud platforms. From live venue setups and signal flow to backend systems, data querying, and testing, I enjoy collaborating across teams to keep systems stable and outcomes on track.
