About Me
Hi I’m Yoad Nevo, a music producer, mix engineer, and audio technologist based in London. I’ve had the privilege of working with an incredible range of artists over the years, from Sia, and Bryan Adams to Pet Shop Boys, Sugababes, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Goldfrapp, Moby, Morcheeba, Girls Aloud, Duran Duran and many more. My work spans pop, electronic, alternative, and rock, and I approach every project with the goal of helping the music shine — whether I’m behind the console, in the mix room, or developing new tools for the studio.
How It All Started
I began my journey in music production at 17, working in professional studios and learning from some of the best in the business. During my early years in London I spent my days in Townhouse and Olympic Studios working with legendary mixers and producers like Arthur Baker, Hugh Padgham, Spike Stent, Stephen Street and Youth. That time laid the foundation for everything I do today.
Nevo Sound Studios
In 2006, I built Nevo Sound Studios in Central London — my creative base and a hybrid space that merges analog warmth with digital flexibility. At the heart of the studio is a 60-channel vintage Neve V51 mixing desk, paired with cutting-edge gear and immersive monitoring. Whether I’m mixing stereo or Dolby Atmos, it’s a space built for precision, vibe, creativity and innovation.
Mixing Philosophy
I have mixed thousands of songs on analogue desks and pioneered a number of hybrid mixing techniques before the transition to primarily mixing in the box. I mix 150–200 tracks a year across genres — many in Dolby Atmos — always aiming to create powerful, emotionally impactful sound. I bring a deep understanding of the modern mixing approach which is based on a solid foundation.
Technology and Plugin Design
I’ve worked on the development of over 100 plugins, many of them industry standards including Grammy, Emmy and TEC Awards winners.. My goal is to bridge the analog and digital worlds by designing tools that feel musical, sound great, and inspire creativity.
My studio also serves as a laboriatory for plugin development and immersive audio workflows. I use ATC monitoring and 7.1.4 Genelec system, calibrated to Dolby Atmos specs, and I’m proud to be part of the movement shaping the future of spatial music.
Education & Writing
In 2007, I wrote Hit Record – An Inside Track to Music Production, a book that shares insights into my workflow, philosophy, and techniques. It’s been used by producers, educators, and students around the world and was even translated into Japanese.
I also speak at industry events, share thoughts on production and technology. My YouTube videos are a great vehicle for sharing my experience and helping musicians and engineers develop their craft in this fast-evolving field.
