Njal Frode in his Mixing & Mastering studio in Hydroparken, January 2009

Hi, my name is Njal Frode.

 Welcome to my website.

In my studio in Hydroparken in Telemark, Norway, I do Mastering and Mixing & Mastering for clients coming from all over the world.
More about me on the 'About' page.


I understand that there are many options available for you when looking for online Mastering or Mixing & Mastering.

So; what can I offer to differentiate myself from the competition?

 

Well, I have documented sales-chart results (on the Norwegian national top-20 singles sales-chart list in May 2009), I offer great sound, fast & friendly service, and; you can have a free one-minute preview of Mastering or Mixing & Mastering of one of your own songs, so you can hear for yourself what I can do for you, before paying or committing.

I invite you to use the price-form and get a quote for your songs; response within 24 hours.

Any questions? You can use the contact-form.

So, thanks for stopping by, and I welcome you to check out my site and services.

All the best,
Njal Frode

The heightened, brighter vocals cut right through crisply, as if the singer's in the room with you.  
This track is "hotter" than before in every sense of the word... THANK YOU nflproduksjoner!


Lynn Julian aKa 'Cookie Cutter Girl', September 6th, 2008



This (NFL Produksjoner)is where we get all our productions mastered, mostly because it gets done properly over there, but also because the price is incredible and everything is done over the web so we don't even have to get up from our chairs to do it.

   "absolutely phenomenal

– I am glad to have found someone to help me finally make a music project that ends up with a dependable, high quality sound. I have never done this before and what I paid i feel is well worth it...especially the time I would have spent TRYING to make it sound a fraction as good as you could do. It would have been "Clip City" for me if I tried. The time and stress that I saved from trying to make a good mix is hard to amount.

I really thank your spirit, attitude, business moral, and physical effort for making this possible for me.

– Thank you for the great mastering job on my tune "'Trem Demo'.
The results are quite obvious.
The overall balance and definition of the parts is greatly improved - sort of a "super realism" effect that brings everything into tighter focus.
Everything is improved compared to my original track and I am very grateful for your work!
In particular, I notice the punch you added to the drums and the impressive amount of gain to the track without any compression problems.
Very nice! I am well pleased and will require no further changes to the recording as you have completed it successfully in this first version.
