Night Ranger’s “Best Of” Release August 28th, 2026 – Also Featuring Remix and Mastering of their Biggest Hits!

· Jun 18, 2026 ·

I’ve had the honor of working with Night Ranger for more than 15 years. During that time, I contributed to seven album releases as a mixing and mastering engineer.

One of the most rewarding parts of that journey has been revisiting some of the band’s most iconic songs for this new Best Of collection.

For this release, I remixed and mastered classic Night Ranger hits including “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me,” “Sister Christian,” “(You Can Still) Rock in America,” “When You Close Your Eyes,” and “Four in the Morning.”

My goal was simple. I wanted to preserve the energy and spirit of these timeless recordings. At the same time, I aimed to add greater clarity, depth, and impact for today’s listeners.

Additionally, these new mixes bring fresh detail and definition to songs that have connected with fans for decades. The result is a listening experience that remains true to the original recordings while offering a modern sonic presentation.

I’m excited for longtime fans to hear these updated versions. Likewise, new listeners can discover these classic songs from a fresh perspective.
