About Me

My name is Anthony Casuccio. I am the Founder and Principal Sound Engineer at Xtream Audio Mastering. Our work has been featured in Mix Magazine, Billboard and even been nominated for a Grammy. I have over 14 years of major label mastering experience that can be put to work for you to add that final professional touch you must have in order to make your recordings stand out in the world of commercially released material. I sat on the board of governors for the San Francisco chapter of the Recording Academy (Grammy). I mastered 3 albums nominated for Grammy awards including: Night Breeze by Sarah Schuster Ericsson and Kenneth Bolton's A Pianist Journey. I have done mastering and radio edits for Columbia Records acts like: Cypress Hill, Our Lady Peace, Nas and Jermaine Dupress to name a few. I also did radio promotions for Columbia acts like Destiny's child, Dixie Chicks, Train and Lil Bow Wow.
My mixing work includes the band Last Conservative's album which was produced by Robby Takac (Goo Goo Dolls) for his label Good Charamel Records. I also mastered The group Barton's Top 20 Billboard Dance hit "To Call My Own" and recently the band Empty Crush's album produced by Brett Hestla (Creed, Dark New Day, Virgos Merlot). Current projects include: De Apostle (featuring Sizzla, Morgan Heritage and Luciano) Amungus (featuring Robby Takac from the Goo Goo Dolls) and Agent Me. My own creative has been featured on All my Children as well as used in numerous commercials across the country (look for the national spot from Liberty Medical). Recent projects include a lost demo tape from Kurt Cobain. I've spent 1000s of hours mastering projects for major recording labels, including the following:
Arista BMG Special Markets Chordant Columbia Records Curb Island Def Jam Universal MCA Nashville Mercury Nashville Contraband Records So So Def Sony Nashville Sparrow Records Warner Bros NAXOS Cambria Priority Records RCA Records Reader's Digest Reprise Zip Records
From Classical to Hip Hop to Experimental -- from alt-country to metal.
A highly sensitive ear, Julliard training and a decade of professional experience from studio to glass master to finished product, ensures your project will sound markedly better after it has been mastered by XTREAM AUDIO.
We just added the CraneSong HeDD 192 to our array of tools! If you have any question please let us know, we are here to help you get the best possible sound for your project.

My Interests

Our latest project has been nominated for a Grammy

Audio Mastering is the art/science of assembling individual songs into cohesive musical excellence and should be considered the final step in a recording project before going into manufacture. Make it Loud!Mastering gives your music the means to compete in the world of commercially released material. We level the playing field by bringing your recordings to their fullest potential, whether you recorded it at home, or spent thousands of dollars at a studio.Without exception, ALL commercial releases are mastered - even those recorded in the most expensive studios in the world, using the most expensive producers. Xtream Audio not only enhances your tracks from an artistic perspective, but also ensures problems like hiss and electrical hum and distortion - often missed in the recording process - are eliminated.Mastering can be the difference between your project sounding like a garage band and a ready-for-radio release...between sounding like a demo and a "record." If you want to sound like the majors, you need it.We offer a free :40 second sample clip.

National Jingle

I just closed the deal on a new national jingle for Liberty Medical. Look for Wilford Brimly as the spokes person. That will be my music.
