About the Studio
Made by Humans,
for Humans.
Mad Sound Studios is a full-service recording and production studio in Covington, KY — run by award-winning songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Charlie Millikin.
Charlie has been producing music for over 16 years, both as an artist under his own name and for artists across many genres including Pop, Country, Singer-Songwriter, and Rock — and the full range of subgenres within each. Every project gets the same thing: undivided attention, real instruments, and a finished product built to last.
Production, tracking, mixing, and mastering — all in-house. No handoffs. No committees. No algorithms. Just the work.
