Ruede Hagelstein
Ruede Hagelstein brings over two decades of experience as a producer, audio engineer, and DJ to his mentorship work. He focuses on guiding artists through both the technical and creative sides of electronic music production: mixing, sound design, arrangement, and developing a personal sound that stands out in a saturated market. Drawing on his SAE Institute training and years running his own mixing studio in Berlin, Ruede helps mentees refine tracks from rough demos to release-ready quality. He is also open to broader conversations about navigating the music industry, working with labels, and building a sustainable career as an electronic artist.
