Get to know Black Bear Sound & Production!

Josh Bauer

I’m a recording and production engineer based in Edmonton, Alberta. I’m graduated from MacEwan University with a Bachelor of Music in Recording and Production, and have worked extensively in the university studios as both a student and a hired engineer.

Black Bear Studio comes out of that experience. Working with artists, helping to capture and shape their sound, and sharing a space that keeps that process practical, creative, and enjoyable.

I started this to keep that process close, to keep music close, and to help others bring their ideas to life. I share the studio with my dog Ember, who takes his role as assistant very seriously.
