He is currently working on Carus and the True Believers’ latest album, Skipping Girl Vinegar and Chloe Hall’s follow-up to White Street.

Loki Lockwood

Loki discovered recording at 16 through no fault of his own. For work experience for high school he was recommended Richmond Recorders as a good way to slack off school. He never thought meeting engineers like Tony Cohen and Chris Thompson during the time when they were producing some of the best rock records Melbourne ever seen would have such a lasting impression.

From there recording was a natural progression from playing in numerous bands in the 90's, his first real success being "Old Man Sam" for Spiderbait followed by their album 'Sha Sha La Va Glava' (recorded at Atlantis) in 1992.

Loki's credit include:

Little Athletics
Dead South
The Stabs
"53rd State" Hugo Race and True Spirit
"Wait Long By The River……" The Drones (AMP award winner, 2006)
"Fait Accompli" Spencer P. Jones
"Here Come the Lies" The Drones
"Watch Yr Back" Digger and the Pussycats
"Immolation and Ameliations" Spencer P.Jones
"Cane Trash" SixFtHick
"For those who came in late" Vegas Kings
"The Sober Light of Day" Gentle Ben and his Sensitive Side

In the last 8 years Loki has run the seminal underground label Spooky Records.

Loki also has been FOH mixer to Dirty Three, White Stripes, The
Buzzcocks, SixFtHick, Spencer P. Jones, Dead Moon, You Am I,
Lubricated Goat, Beasts of Bourbon, Snog and the list goes on.

Myles Mumford

Ever since I can remember there's been music, i want that to continue and I want to be there making it.

Since moving to Melbourne (from Tasmania) I have composed and designed for over 80 theatre shows, including dance, drama and installations, some 50 plus films and engineered and/or produced countless tracks, Albums, EPs, Demos and helped many artists and bands on their musical journey. My preference is for the more varied and unusual styles and bringing my own originality, subtlety and flavour to whatever I am working with. I also continue to compose and perform my own works and improvisations in varied situations. When not in the studio I can be found attending a wide variety of gigs, enjoying fine food, cooking, climbing mountains, or sailing, and all this with friends.

'..a deft touch and a very subtle but complex way of putting together the sounds.'
(Andrew Hollo, Hybrid 2004)

Some of the many people I've worked with:

James Clark

James started his career at the ABC in Adelaide, providing him with a diverse background in sound engineering, from football broadcasts to recording the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra.

Towards the end of the 80’s Pepper Studios and jingle writer Mark Rivett coaxed James from the public service into commercial music production. James spent the next seven years engineering, co-writing and playing bass on numerous jingles and in his spare time producing CDs for mainly local Adelaide jazz bands.

In 1996 James returned to Melbourne as the senior lecturer in the inaugural year of the Northern Melbourne Institute of Tafe (nmit) studio's Sound Production course, whilst still finding time to engineer around ten albums a year for various bands including the following:
