ABOUT
Born and raised in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area, Luke's musical journey began in his early teens, playing guitar and crafting melodies in punk bands with friends. High school saw him plunge into production, drawn by the infectious beats of Drum & Bass from the UK.
Luke's passion led him to study audio production at SFSU, and post-graduation, under the moniker LUKEINO, he released records for several years before being recruited by the acclaimed DnB group Bachelors of Science.
In 2013, an early demo of Dolby's Atmos music format ignited Luke's imagination, leading to his groundbreaking role as the world's first full-time Atmos music mixer at Dolby in 2016. Over the next 7.5 years, he pioneered techniques and mixed music in Atmos for top artists and labels. His skills garnered a Grammy Nomination in 2019 for "Best Immersive Album of the Year" for YACHT's "Chain Tripping."
In 2022, Luke relocated to Los Angeles, further immersing himself in the dynamic world of sound in the heart of the music industry. By 2023, he ventured into independent mixing, swiftly earning the trust of top labels like EMPIRE, Warp, Platoon, and Interscope & artists like Wu-Tang Clan, Summer Walker and Slauson Malone 1.

Luke understands immersive mixing better than anyone else on the planet. He has a highly refined taste, both technically and creatively, and is my go to resource for anything Atmos.

I worked with Luke on the Atmos mix of my Emergence album and the results were powerful! He spatially mastered the album beautifully. It was a smooth and enjoyable process.

Luke is the best mix engineer that I've worked with in the USA. He understands contemporary music and how to design sound for different environments. He mixed the Hardkiss album '1991,' several singles and remixes and everything sounds tight.
