Blink Music

What Blink Music does

Blink Music is a full-service music production studio headquartered at 129 Franklin Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, operating from the historic Kennedy Biscuit Lofts building between MIT and Central Square. Founded by Tim Lukas, a Fulbright Scholar and Berklee College of Music graduate with a triple major in Music Production, Piano Performance, and Composition, the studio delivers recording, mixing, mastering, production, artist development, and scoring services. The facility is equipped with ProTools MTRX Systems, a Petrof grand piano, high-end sampling libraries comparable to top Los Angeles and New York scoring studios, and what the company characterizes as Boston's largest collection of samplers, synths, and MIDI gear. A team of seven engineers, producers, and composers, most with Berklee credentials, supports work spanning solo artists, classical and jazz performers, film/TV/video game scoring, and commercial clients.

The business operates on a project-based, unit-priced model. Standardized packages include Studio Time ($350 for 2 hours, $599 for 4 hours), Artist & Production Consultation ($199), Recording Consultation ($125), Full Song Production Pro Level ($4,995 per song including pre-production through mastering), and FITS Studio Training ($140 per hour). Higher-value bespoke work covers scoring, on-location recording, video production, image consulting, and copyright/legal support. Go-to-market is sales-led and regional, with bookings processed via the website, phone, and email; distribution combines direct studio sessions in Cambridge, mobile on-location recording across New England, and a self-serve online shop. Customers include HBO, Boston Pops, Manhattan Transfer, Tony Levin, Matt Chamberlain, and a long list of individual artists across classical, jazz, folk, gospel, pop, and rock genres. Marketing relies on Google search ads, the company website, SoundCloud, print advertising, email newsletters, and a client referral program.
