Steven Rinkoff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steven Rinkoff is a record producer, mixer, and sound engineer, well-renowned in the music business for his work with songwriter-producer Jim Steinman. He has worked with Steinman since 1986 on many projects, in all facets of production (production, mixing, and engineering), and is so trusted by him to the point that he is currently Steinman's partner in Ravenous Records, their record label.

Currently Rinkoff is developing the group The Dream Engine. The project brings new songs, new lyrics, and new voices to the rock operatic imagination of Jim Steinman. 2006 will launch the live shows and a much anticipated CD.
