"This guy knows his studio well and is always searching for the best techniques to get the sound you're looking for to create records that will stand the test of time, while having a great time creating them. I love the safe and inviting vibe Todd keeps here and am excited to come back!"

emotive, enduring art.
Mystic Eye Studio is an affordable, inviting, atmospheric sacred studio space located in the Carleton Artist Lofts of St. Paul.
I especially like to produce, adding instrumentation as needed, and running it all through state of the art equipment and software.
I love working with artists who believe in themselves and are eager to invest in bringing their art to its highest potential. Studio values are respect, clear communication and reliability.
Todd Michael Bradt
Owner/Producer/Mixer
"I started Mystic Eye to expand my love for sculpting sounds beyond my own productions to assist other up-and-coming indie artists of all genres in creating art that best reflects their inner creative voice. I like to experiment with sounds and truly hear the unique heartbeat of each song to hear what it's calling for. I work extremely hard each artist to realize the full potential of each track."
