You have the songs, and the vision, but you need some help to make it a reality. That’s where I come in. As a musician, I can help you shape your sound, and I can offer feedback that helps bring your music to life!
Whether it’s a project I produce, or if it’s something that you’ve produced yourself, I can turn those raw tones into polished, clear, and punchy mixes! If you have multitracks that are ready for mixing, contact me, and I’ll send you a link to upload them!
After your project is recorded, mixed and mastered, I can design logos, packaging, t-shirt designs, you name it! ...and yep, that’s right! I did the artwork for Periphery’s 2nd album, along with many other album covers over the years!
"Great studio! Josh is a brilliant engineer and very helpful. Absolutely recommend!""
"Josh has a stellar ear for production, and his talent started at an elite level and has just became top notch. It's always a great experience working with Josh, he will turn your dreams into a reality when it comes to putting together the best possible record at the best possible price while achieving platinum record production. I recommend Dark Hollow Studio!!!"
"I've used Josh’s services for probably 14 years now. He’s absolutely one of the most creative and consistent artists I know. He’s not only graced music I’ve written with some incredibly powerful vocals, he’s also done all kinds of graphic design work for me covering ALL kinds of styles/needs. It’s just insane. I continue to go back to him again and again. I seriously can’t recommend him enough!"
Dark Hollow Studio is a full service production and online mixing recording studio in Baltimore County Maryland. I'm Josh Clark, the lead producer, and I work with several other engineers and producers that help contribute to various projects as needed. I am also affiliated with Studio-E in Westminster, MD and sometimes, I will run sessions there in addition to sessions at Dark Hollow Studio.
I specialize in hard rock and metal, because those are the genres that I tend to write in, but I also have experience producing pop, film score styles, and even more classical instruments like harps or horns!
I personally enjoy working on a variety of projects. Some artists only have an acoustic guitar, or keyboard, and a voice, but they want the full production they hear in their minds. Fortunately, I have the resources to make that grand musical vision happen by adding drums, bass, guitar, synths, even symphonies! Other artists are full bands looking to get their sound on a record -- I love to dig deep into all different types of projects, and help shape the perfect sound that represents what the band's chemistry brings to the table.
Just a little more about me -- I am the lead singer in several bands locally (Seventh Seal, Vestascension) and I have a deep passion for creating music that impacts listeners through emotional connection.
Why "Dark Hollow"? Well, that's actually not all that exciting (but it sounds sooooooo cool)... there's a road near the studio named Dark Hollow Rd. I always thought it was a pretty cool name... sooooo... yeah, the rest is history!
