Studio Brighton

Tim Rowkins is a hugely talented mixer, producer and multi-instrumentalist (proficient on guitar, keys, bass, piano and drums). His mixing and production work reveal that he has never been confined by genre, working with major labels such as Dirty Hit, Parlophone, RCA, Good Soldier, 37 Adventures, Ministry of Sound and Ninja Tune.

This year has seen Tim gain success with two artists that have been taking the UK music industry by storm. Tim's biggest triumph has been mixing the hugely lauded debut album from Rina Sawayama, titled "SAWAYAMA". Rina was also nominated for the Rising Star Award at the 2021 BRITs, alongside Griff and Pa Saleu. Tim has mixed some of her most successful singles including "Cherry" and "Chosen Family" with Elton John, which features on Elton's #1 album "The Lockdown Sessions". Tim's longstanding relationship with Rina has also seen him mix her debut mini album "RINA", including the single "Cyber Stokholm Syndrome". In addition to this, Tim has done some mixing for the BRIT Award and Mercury Prize winning Arlo Parks for her massively successful "Collapsed In Sunbeams" album campaign.

Currently, Tim is working on mixes for the likes of Zines, Onur, Seba Safe, Tiarlie, Rebecca Black, Rampton Prom, the hotly-tipped Sirens of Lesbos and Japanese superstar Mai Kuraki. Tim was also lucky enough to mix a version of the Lady Gaga and Rina Sawayama duet of "Free Woman".

Previous credits include mixing for artists such as Mura Masa (the hit single "What If I Go"), Maribou State (a mix of the single "Turnmills"), Olivia Dean (the single "Cheer Up Love"), All Saints (the album "Testament" and singles "Love Lasts Forever" and the William Orbit produced "After All"), Jones, Jodie Abacus, Jaz Karis, Salute, the critically acclaimed "The Ashen Tag" album from Royce Wood Junior and his remix for Kwabs on the single "Walk".

Tim enjoys working closely with artists in the pre-production stage to ensure that the songs are properly arranged and structured. He is a multi-instrumentalist, lending his expertise to getting into the 'nitti gritti' of each track. Tim's inherently musical and professional approach to his work is complimented by his belief in fostering a positive atmosphere within a studio session, creating exactly what an artist needs to be working at their full potential. In terms of mixing, he firmly believes in letting the song call the shots, giving each finished project a truly original and refreshing outcome.

Tim initially cut his teeth in the industry by playing in bands and was originally signed to Universal Music. He subsequently trained under Clive Martin, hitting the studio with acts such as Reef and Puressence.

Tim is based at his own studio in Brighton.
