Shortly after, in 2008, he became the in-house mix engineer at Kensaltown Studios. Over the next seven years, he mixed most of Martin Terefe's productions, as well as other songs recorded at the studio. One of Juth's first credits as a mix engineer was for the song "Boots and Sand" by Yusuf (Cat Stevens), featuring Paul McCartney and Dolly Parton. [9] In 2011, Mexican duo Jesse & Joy came to the studio to record their album ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro? , featuring their massive hit "¡Corre!". Both were mixed by Juth and went on to receive several Grammy nominations and awards. [10]
In 2014, Juth left Kensaltown Studios to set up his own studio in London, Elephant Lane Studios, together with producer Michael Bianco. However, a year later, in 2015 he decided to leave London, and for the next few years, he worked as a travelling mix engineer.
