ABOUT ME:

When I was a kid, I’d often hop from interest to interest. One week, I’d be drawing my own characters and taping them to my wall. The next, I’d be trying to write my own book. Maybe even later in the month, you’d find me filming stop-motion films with LEGO, or developing the most optimal trick-or-treat route in my neighborhood.

One thing remains the same from then to now: I love to create. Nowadays, you can find me producing audio, video, or graphic design for myself and clients. I’ve gathered all my work here for you to peruse, and if you like what you see or hear, I’m only a few clicks and types away from working with you!

I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music, with Digital Music Production as a minor study. I’ve been recording my own music and putting together my own videos for 10 years, and I currently have the privilege to run recording or mixing sessions at Mammoth Recording Studio in Buffalo, New York.

word on the street:

  • "I’ve been working with Joey on assorted projects for the last two years, and he’s always been my go-to whenever I’ve needed his services. When I was making my solo album, he recorded and played drums for me right when I needed it most. We also recorded a live album together, and his unique guitar and vocal parts showed that he truly possesses a producer’s mindset—able to elevate any song. Great drummer, engineer, and producer all around—the whole package!"

  • "Joey helped our band with a variety of shows, recording, tracking bass, writing parts, and producing—all of which he excelled at. He’s got such a solid musical background that he can jump into any project with ease. In addition, he holds himself to a high standard, always delivering quality work in a timely manner. He’s also extremely communicative and has a great knack for creating a track that truly captures the artist’s vision."

    Andrew Doviak, Cobraz. 2025

  • "Myself and the band were thoroughly impressed with Joey’s dedication to making sure we were completely satisfied with the final product. There’s a real sense of comfort he brings to every session. He stays focused on your needs while offering thoughtful input when asked. His response time outside the studio—whether reviewing tracks or answering follow-up questions—is impressively quick. With Joey, the session doesn’t end when you walk out the door; he’s always available and happy to help. Working with him was a truly great experience."

    Steve Joksimovic, Red Button Dilemma. 2025

  • "Joey has mixed the last several songs I’ve recorded, and his work has been consistently amazing. He’s always willing to listen to your input and is an absolute pleasure to work with. During the recording process, he’s a supportive presence, and his positivity goes a long way in creating the kind of atmosphere where creativity can thrive. Joey is the man!"

    Adam Putzer, asalone. 2025

  • "Joey made all our sessions seamless and free of technical interruptions. He’s great with technology and an enthusiastic supporter of our ideas—even when they’re still in early stages. Like many great studio engineers, he’s a musician himself, so he truly understands the language we speak."
