about dee kei
Dee Kei is a Billboard-charting mix engineer and Recording Academy member based in Los Angeles, whose work has also topped the iTunes charts. He works with artists, producers, and labels to bring projects across the finish line with clarity, confidence, and intention.Guided by the belief that music should be both sonically exceptional and emotionally grounded, Dee Kei approaches mixing with care, restraint, and long-term perspective. Rooted in the Japanese spirit of a shokunin (職人), his work reflects a deep respect for craft, intention, and making decisions that serve the record rather than the moment.Much of Dee Kei’s work begins where uncertainty peaks. As records near completion, artists and teams often struggle with doubt, over-analysis, and the pressure of final decisions. Dee Kei’s role is to provide clarity, confidence, and finality at this stage, making deliberate, informed choices that allow projects to be finished, trusted, and released without hesitation.
