The Team
Mark B. Christensen – Owner/ Head Mastering Engineer
At age 16, Mark began touring in the mid-west doing his own progressive modern-rock material. At age 19, he began his production career. With a short stint in England, Mark also toured briefly with acts such as The Waterboys and The Clash while also producing numerous independent records. Mark eventually returned to New York City to work as a line producer at Soundtrack City. While working at Soundtrack City, he self-produced a demo which ultimately resulted in another record deal (generating another round of tours, this time with the likes of Radiohead, The Wallflowers and The Gin Blossoms). Mark is now the owner of Engine Room Audio, and is considered one of New York’s top, highly regarded Mastering Engineers, working with hundreds of artists, labels and major corporations.
