Award-winning jazz pianist Justin Kauflin mastered his 2015 sophomore album, Dedication, his first for Quincy Jones’ Qwest Records and Jazz Village label, at Bernie’s. Kauflin, born in 1986, was a child prodigy classically trained in violin and piano. By the age of 6 he began performing in concerts, nursing homes and weddings, eventually becoming concertmaster for several orchestras. It was during this time that he also endured numerous trials, particularly losing total vision by age 11. Pictured (L-R) are Justin Kauflin and mastering engineer Bernie Grundman.

Jazz chanteuse Lyn Stanley mastered her 2017 album The Moonlight Sessions Volume One at Bernie’s. Recorded by Al Schmitt and Steve Genewick, mixed by Michael Bishop, and mastered by Bernie Grundman, the exceptional one-step process vinyl release debuted at the Munich HiEnd Show. Vinyl records are made by first cutting grooves in a lacquer-coated aluminum disc. After the cut lacquer is quickly metal-plated, the metal is separated from the lacquer, producing a rigid metal... part that can be used to press records in a "one-step" process. In the conventional world of record manufacturing the metal part (called "the father") is again plated resulting in a playable grooved disc commonly referred to as "the mother". The "mother" can then be plated to produce a stamper that's used to press records in the common three-step process. True audiophiles prize one-step releases as the highest vinyl fidelity available.
