“I have been working with TQ (Francis Hudson) since he mixed some tracks on my Sophomore album in 2012 and since then, he is by far my favourite mixing engineer. I have given him songs in different styles and genres (Reggae, Folklore, Salsa, World rhythms, Soul, Pop, Folk), some with different acoustic instrumentation, to songs with straight-up beats and vocals, and he always brings out the best in them every time! He just gets it. I can’t help but smile when I am listening to his mixes. Pure magic and vibes. TQ is also one of the most professional mixing engineers that I have worked with and he delivers! Easy to communicate with, he is always pleasant to work with. If you want your track to shine, I strongly recommend a mix session with TQ.”

"Congratulations! You are handing your project over to a fellow with a truly HI-FI skill-set and magic pair of ears. Not only technically ahead of the curve, but TQ also leans waaay into your material and listens - fully absorbing the heart, soul & style alive within - then he opens it up and brilliantly illuminates it with his vital touch. He faithfully restored my archival analog/digital hybrid masters with fidelity I had not heard since the original recording & mixing sessions."

As an artist, it’s important for me to work with an engineer who can see the vision I have and execute it in a way that compliments my overall sound.
The passion TQ has for what he does is as powerful as the passion I have for doing what I do, and that’s the ingredient needed to make any song a hit in my opinion.
I call it the TQ touch!
I have to say it’s been an absolute pleasure working with him on most of the music I have released and will be releasing in the future.
I recommend TQ as an engineer to anyone looking for a genuine, gifted, and professional individual. He has taken my songs to the next level with his expertise on how to bring out the best in my sound, and for his patience at creating balance in every session.

"Francis ’TQ’ Hudson has mixed and mastered several of our projects for different artists, and always brings that professional sound and sparkle to everything he touches…highly recommended!”

"I remember the first time I met TQ: he greeted me with the biggest smile, and we talked about music for almost an hour. As soon as he realized that I am an artist with several tracks to be released, he took a listen and shared his insights on how to improve the sound. He did his "TQ magic" without even knowing me much at that point. Our professional relationship started with mastering several of my mixes right after this conversation. Because the outcome of this project was so satisfying, I trusted him with the entire mix of my debut album. He literally elevated the sound: not only did my mix sound so much clearer, I learned a few skills as a fellow engineer. Despite being one of the most amazing yet modest audio engineers I know, he is passionate about his work. He is also willing to share his knowledge with you. Sitting in session with him has always been fun, and I would suggest you do the same if you'd like to fully experience the "TQ magic" - I promise you won't regret the choice."

TQ is the truth! Simply put, he is one of the top dawgs in the city - and will give you an elite sound every time, whether it is rap or R&B. I am picky with my vocals, but with TQ, I know my work will be in great hands. I appreciate you and am happy to give you your flowers now. Bless up

Where do I even begin? I have been working with TQ since the very beginning of my music career and one thing that I have to say is that he’s always consistent in his work. TQ has always supported me throughout my career and it shows through the love and passion he puts into it when he works on my songs. My music has stood out and has exceeded public expectations because of TQs help in making sure I sound the best. He's not just a mixing and mastering engineer, he has been a teacher to me and a music mentor.
