Brian works daily in every style from Billboard, Amazon Music, and iTunes #1s to bedroom projects and boutique musics. Seven Grammy winning singles and records are listed here plus some of the bigger sellers, with a sampling of others. Musicality is the driving force in the work, connecting each artist more deeply with their core audience and expanding their appeal to the widest possible audience.

"I’ve made records for 30 years, hired all the legends. Brian gets the visceral and makes music live and feel special in every sense. No one is even close. I get chills, end of story." - Anthony “ajax” Resta
Beginning in the late 80s NYC East Village, Brian Lucey was a professional musician (guitar, voice, piano) who became a student of Robert Fripp and Guitar Craft through the early/mid 90s. He has many years of experience in band creativity: writing, arranging, performing, tracking, mixing and producing organic music (Ampex MM1200 2"). Mastering began in the late 90s and his experience in all other phases has lead to a uniquely musical take on the craft.
Originally from the secret music city of Columbus, Ohio he works out of Los Angeles.
Located on a street with artists of all genres in Atwater Village, the Los Angeles room is a new concept in mastering design. The freestanding walls treat mid and high frequencies, while the low end escapes into the three story, open floor plan, concrete structure. This provides great low end clarity. Windows and fresh air encourage a more human connection to the outside world. Mastering is about connection, and this design brings something to the work a windowless cave studio can not.
Modified solid state and new old stock tube gear in a short signal path fill a single desk of great power and flexibility. Handmade speakers from Kevin Malmgren, Evolution Acoustics MM3. Allnic Audio A-6000 dual mono tube amps. Bricasti M1 SE converters.
