Audio Engineer

Description

I am looking to hire a tech-savvy music producer or audio engineer to help me completely recreate a 12-song album for an underground Toronto post-punk band called Plague Inc. (active 1980–1985). I have a rare live recording of the band and the lyrics. I want to build a brand-new, polished studio version of these 12 tracks from scratch using a modern, hybrid AI workflow. The Role Involves: 1. Using AI stem separation tools to isolate the original live instruments/vocals from the old tape. 2. Training an AI voice-cloning model on the original lead singer’s voice. 3. Recording clean "guide vocals" (using a session singer or yourself if you can sing) and applying the AI voice clone over top. 4. Re-creating the instrumentals with pristine studio quality using 1980s-accurate virtual instruments (Juno synths, vintage drum machines, post-punk guitars). I am 67 and acting as the executive producer/historian for this project—I know how the music should sound, but I need you to handle the computer software and production side. This is a paid project. I am looking to negotiate a flat, fair project rate for the 12 songs rather than an hourly studio fee. We will start with a paid test on one single song to make sure we are a good fit before moving on to the full album. If you are highly skilled with AI audio tools and DAWs (Ableton, Logic, Pro Tools, etc.), please reply with a bit about your background and a link to some of your work.
