Kutan is an experienced audio engineer with a deep-rooted passion for music and sound design. His journey began with music composition at an early age, which eventually evolved into a fervent interest in designing sounds and mixing.

 

Kutan's professional career took a significant turn when he decided to become a full time mixing engineer.

One of his notable projects was the feature-length sound design for PBS's Docuseries "Planet California."

 

With extensive experience and growing demand from local artists, Kutan founded Katas Sound. At Katas Sound, he has had the pleasure of recording and mixing a diverse array of artists, spanning genres from classical to folk, R&B to rap, pop to electronic, rock to ambient. He has mixed and mastered more than 100 artist releases including singles, EPs and albums.  He also works as a mixer for sync licensing and music supervisors , his mixes get consistent placements on music libraries. His mission is to bring each artist's unique vision to life with high-quality sound production.
