About Dylan
Hi, I'm Dylan, I attended Dubspot Music School based in New York City and graduated with a total of 5 different certificates based around music production and audio engineering.
I am the co-owner of a music studio (Matte Black Records) and pro audio retail store (Blackout Audio), which is uniquely housed in the same unit! My main mixing room is designed by the legendary Martin Pilchner, who designed studios for Deadmau5, CBC radio, Canada Studio 12, Supersonic etc. Students of mine have the added bonus of receiving discounts on equipment from my pro audio shop!
I pride myself on an impeccable attention to detail, and a warm, friendly approach. Checkout my google reviews by searching "Matte Black Records" on google!

You'll learn how to navigate and get the most out of Ableton Live and use industry leading plug-ins, which will prepare you for the real world. You'll understand how to properly record, mix, and apply effects like EQ, saturation, compression, and reverb (to name a few) and where to use them for specific results. After the mixing stage, we dive into learning how to master your mix to make it commercially loud viable on all speaker systems.
Jump in to learn how to optimally mix, then master your music to bring out all the details, with clarity and punch. I am diligent and meticulous in my teaching style, so your music gets the attention and love it deserves. Message me for more details!

Dylan is an awesome coach when it comes to mixing music, his down to earth approach gives me the confidence to persevere through sometimes challenging situations. Mixing isn’t for everyone and I’m glad Dylan is able to help me understand the nuances of the craft and is always there to answer my questions and help me when I’m struggling to understand something
I’ve known Dylan since high school, and back then, it was him that taught me to use Garageband for the first time.
Dylan is detail oriented, and loves facts — if he doesn’t have the answer right now, he will not sleep until he has.
His ability to offer detailed and thorough instruction helps make the process cohesive and simple. He’s come a long way from Garageband, with time and resources invested into mastering his craft. Dylan is a wizard with Ableton especially — and as a personal trainer who myself prefers to be trained 1 on 1,
I feel in excellent hands when Dylan is taking lead on a project.
I’m really proud of the producer/engineer he’s become, and honoured that I get to continue working with him. Anyone that gets the chance to learn from Dylan will be blown away and will likely lead to a long lasting partnership.Hi! I have been taking music production lessons with Dylan for about five months now. I absolutely love his approach, and how easily he breaks down large concepts into digestible pieces. I love how practical his classes are, and how I can very easily and quickly implement those concepts and ideas in my work. I feel like I’ve grown immensely over the last few months through his teaching.
Also, because of his incredible knowledge in mixing, he has helped me become better, not just at producing my own music, but at working with mixers to get as close to my ideal sound as possible. Dylan is a very effective, efficient, and reliable teacher, and this has been one of my all-time favourite, and best learning experiences.
Thank you!I am recommending Dylan as an exceptional audio production teacher and mentor. Dylan is not only a friend of mine, but also a colleague. He has taught me a lot about audio production, and I can confidently say that he is an excellent teacher.
One instance that particularly stands out to me was when he was teaching someone who was struggling to understand how to prepare and separate stems for remote mixing and mastering services. Dylan was patient, encouraging and meticulous throughout the process, ensuring that each stem was the same length and matched up in the software easily for him to mix and master.
Dylan has a unique teaching style that is detail-oriented, empathetic and caring. He genuinely wants his students to succeed and goes above and beyond to make sure they understand the concepts. He is also very knowledgeable in his field and has a genuine passion for teaching.
His students genuinely like him as a person, not just their teacher, and he reciprocates that feeling. He creates a comfortable and friendly learning environment that makes it easy for his students to approach him with questions and challenges.
Overall, I would highly recommend Dylan to any Superprof members who are interested in learning about audio production. He is an excellent teacher who genuinely cares about his students and their success.View more recommendations
