Hey Scott, Just a jump in here on my part.
When it comes to using a mastering house, you really need to know the individuals work, and have a very close work relationship the the engineer. Using stems is a very open ended license for someone to take deep and radical liberties with the artist work. I'm not saying it's bad, just a large leap of faith, if you don't know their work intimately. And of course, this can also typically lead to higher cost for the artist with mixes being redone, over and over, until you or the artist's are please with the results. Just a thought.

The songs that are being mixed at the moment here might benefit a lot from the stems approach though thinking about it. It's all a bit tight timeframe wise, but maybe I'll grab stems of these and see how that goes if we finish ahead of schedule and have a few extra days to play with.
