Dmitry is a young and enthusiastic audio engineer based in Serbia. His life has been intertwined with music since childhood, and he is very well-versed in both the technical and artistic aspects of the profession.

With over 7 years of professional experience, Dmitry Babkin is an audio engineer, sound designer, arranger, opera singer, and multi-instrumentalist. He graduated with honors from St. Petersburg Glinka's Boys Choir College, specializing in choir conducting and singing. Later, he completed his studies at St. Petersburg University of Humanities and Social Studies, earning a degree as an audio engineer. Mostly working as a freelancer, Dmitry has collaborated with musicians from around the world. In 2018, he edited and mixed the second album of the Russian band Vtoroy Etazh Porazhaet (Второй этаж поражает), which received the award for 'Album of the Year' from the Russian online magazine Native Sound. He has worked with artists from various genres, including Phil Stacey (Pop), David K. Israel (Contemporary Classical), and Ojos Feos (Afro-Latin). Most recently, Dmitry has been the main audio engineer at Matonizz & Fennell Production, where he gained extensive experience in editing brass instrument recordings.

Dmitry is a highly versatile audio editor with experience in Jazz, Indie-Rock, and Pop genres. He is particularly passionate about classical music, where seamless imperceptible edits are essential. Dmitry can comp, time-align your audio recordings, perform tuning, and apply noise reduction if necessary. If you have sheet music for your song, Dmitry would prefer to have it for the sake of easier navigation in the project.

I have worked with Dmitry on a weekly basis for nearly three years now. He's deeply knowledgeable about his craft, very meticullous in his work, always willing to accept feedback, and generally a pleasure to work with. He is as good as anyone in the business!

Been working the last few months with Dmitry and he performed exceptionally well! He went above and beyond any expectations I had. He communicates very thoroughly and provides excellent feedback through his expertise on areas of the film. His skillset of audio editing and mixing made my film into a Hollywood sounding film. If you're on the fence about hiring him, he'll deliver above and beyond what you are needing! You won't regret it. He's also a really nice guy.
