You know there’s more in this song.

WHAT I BRING TO THE SONG
Find the direction
Before I look for the right sound, I want to understand where the song needs to go — what it should make people feel, what’s already working, and what’s still holding it back.
Make the choices that matter
Arrangement, dynamics, textures, contrast, tone… I focus on the decisions that have a real impact on the song, rather than adding things just for the sake of it.
Protect your identity
I’m here to bring ideas, challenge you, and give perspective — not replace your vision with mine. The song should come out stronger, more cohesive and more fully realized, without losing what makes it yours.
The goal isn’t to make your song my way. It’s to bring out the best version of yours.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
From the first conversation to the final song.
The process adapts to the project. The thread stays the same: understand the intention, make the right decisions, move forward together, and finish the song without losing its identity.

PROJECT
Understand what you’re building
We start with the song, its context, and what you want to defend. Demo, references, ambitions: first I want to understand where you want to take it.
DIRECTION
Decide where the song needs to go
We clarify the intention, references, and priorities. Before chasing the right sound, we know what we want people to feel and what really matters.
BUILD
Step in where it changes the song
Arrangement, production, recording, textures, dynamics, tone: I step in where the project needs it, rather than following a fixed package or recipe.
COLLABORATION
Move forward together, even remotely
In Montréal or remotely, sessions can happen in real time with screen sharing and high-quality audio. You stay involved in the decisions as the song takes shape.
DISCORD · AUDIOMOVERS · LIVE SESSIONS
FINALIZATION
Take it all the way without losing what matters
Mix, revisions, and delivery: we refine until the song is cohesive, impactful, and ready to release, without smoothing out what gives it character.
This isn’t a tunnel where you send me tracks and wait for a result. Collaboration is part of the process.
CLIENT FEEDBACK
The result matters. So does how you get there.
Beyond the final sound, what artists remember is the collaboration, the decisions made together, and the feeling of taking the song all the way without losing its identity.
SNAP BORDER · IDENTITY · CREATIVE RESPECT
“It was never about doing things for us, but about elevating what we had already built — making it more impactful, more modern, and more fully realized.”
HIPSKOR · REMOTE COLLABORATION
“Working live over Discord with screen sharing saved us time and made it much easier to find the mix we were looking for.”
FAITH IN FACES · TRANSFORMATION
“The tracks we sent ended up feeling almost like demos compared to the dimension Anthony brought to the songs.”
ABOUT
I’ve been on the other side of the glass, too.
Before helping other artists build their records, I started by building my own.
I’m Anthony Chognard, a producer and mixer based in Montréal. I’ve been a musician since 2006, and I know the rehearsals, sessions, stages, tours, and decisions that happen long before a mix session opens.
That experience inevitably shapes the way I work. I know what it means to hand a song you care about to someone else — so I bring perspective without taking away what makes it personal.

CREDITS
RIGHT FIT
You have something to defend.
I’m not looking for perfect projects. I’m looking for artists who have something to say — and the drive to take it all the way.
Something worth defending
The song needs to say something or make you feel something.
Ambition for the project
Band size doesn’t matter. You need to want to push the song further.
Open to ideas
Test things, challenge choices, and sometimes change direction if the song gets better.
Trust in the process
I can bring perspective and ideas, but we build it together.
The drive to take it further
Not necessarily to get “bigger.” To make it truer, stronger, and more fully realized.
YOUR PROJECT
You feel like your song can go further?
Send me a demo and tell me where you want to take it. We’ll look at what’s missing, what really matters — and whether I’m the right person to help you take it further.

FIRST CONVERSATION
Tell me about your project.
You don’t need a perfect brief. Just give me enough context to understand the song, where you’re at, and where you want to take it.
