Peter Mokran is an American mixer, producer, engineer and musician.

Mokran was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. Growing up, he studied classical guitar, learning engineering and programming as a teen. He earned a BA in music from De Paul University.

Mokran first received widespread notice in 1992 for mixing, engineering and producing R. Kelly’s debut, Born into the 90's, which featured two number one hits on the Billboard R&B charts and went platinum within a year of its release. The following year he engineered, mixed and programmed Kelly's second album 12 Play, which reached number one on the Billboard R&B charts. The album’s second single, "Bump n' Grind", was at the time the longest-running number one single on the Billboard R&B charts, and also rose to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. He continued to work with R. Kelly through his 2004 album Happy People/U Saved Me.

The Flaming Lips hired Mokran to remix several songs on their 1999 album The Soft Bulletin including "Race for the Prize" and "Waitin' for a Superman". Mokran was primarily known for his work in the R&B and hip hop genres, but was chosen by the Flaming Lips for his history of mixing hit singles.

He mixed the 2009 Pussycat Dolls single "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)", an English-language version of the Hindi song by A. R. Rahman from the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack.
