About me…


Oli Yam

I'm a London-based mastering engineer with a classical music background and extensive experience in composing for games and electronic music. I began my musical journey under the name YEIN, accumulating over 600k plays on SoundCloud and 3.5 million views on YouTube.

I hold a first-class degree in Music and Sound Design (BA Hons) from Ravensbourne University London and recently completed the Audio Mastering course at Berklee College of Music Online, under the guidance of mastering engineer legend Marc-Dieter Einstmann. I have also gained valuable experience at Sound Performance, working alongside mastering engineer Andrew Thompson on mastering albums for BGO Records and the monthly releases for Uncut magazine.

When I'm not working, I love diving into the world of HiFi and vinyl, exploring the nuances of sound through my collection. My passion for headphones borders on obsession, as I'm always seeking the perfect audio experience.
