[edit] Mike Plotnikoff

Mike Plotnikoff is a versatile engineer/producer/mixer from Canada. He began his career at the world famous Little Mountain Sound studio in Vancouver B.C. His persistence caught the attention of producers who soon had him working on big albums of the day (Yes, Aerosmith, KISS). He has worked along side the legendary producer Bruce Fairbairn.

After a chance meeting with the bassist from Noise Therapy he was able to flex his producer muscle with the recording of Noise Therapy’s “Cyclops E.P.” He also coproduced the rest of the bands releases, including fully producing the bands final release “Tension” (Redline Entertainment). His most recent producer credit goes to Buckcherry’s “15” record. He also engineered and mixed the album.

Mike now works mainly with producer Howard Benson with whom he’s done hugely successful albums such as My Chemical Romance’s “Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge” & triple Grammy nominated “The Reason” by Hoobastank.

He can be found currently in L.A. where he works and resides with his wife.
