Best decision I've ever made! It's nice to trust someone completely with your music and know it'll come out so much better than it went in. Expectations blown away!

You put a lot of time, heart, and spirit into your music

Don't let your mix take that away

You believe in your music. You've written your heart out. You hear it in your sleep. Feel it in your bones. Now you have to trust your baby in someone else's hands.

That's where I come in

I will work hard to carry out the vision you have for your art; taking the raw emotion you poured into your performance and turning it into a finished, polished recording that makes you feel like the first time you ever played it, and helping your fans to feel the same.

About

Hi, I'm Kris

I started Filament Productions in 2008. Since then I've recorded, produced, and mixed projects for bands and musicians across a variety of genres — with a lot of attention to detail and a love for lush soundscapes.

I've also served as Worship Technology Director and a worship leader at a multi-campus church in West Texas, where I trained and mentored more than 50 musicians and technology volunteers.

I value the long haul with the people I work with. For example, I’ve mixed 15 yearly albums for LCU’s a cappella group Best Friends — one of them, “Risen,” won a 2019 Contemporary A Cappella Recording Award for Best Religious Album.
