Client Testimonials

"I've been working with Craig for a year now on a solo CD. The fact that we've been working together for this long is a testimonial in itself that represents how enjoyable it has been. In this time Craig has played all the drums, produced, arranged, mixed and mastered the music to new levels that fit my musical style perfectly. Craig possesses many qualities that give me confidence . First, he has a diploma in audio engineering from SAE and has all the necessary skills for recording, mixing and mastering. He's also a musician in his own right with a wide background in many styles of music and this experience really comes in handy when searching for a musical idea, whether it be a guitar, bass, or keyboard part or a vocal line. Craig is also a talented and experienced drummer with a keen sense of timing. He has an amazing 'ear', that allows him to hear the subtleties of a song and make adjustments or corrections where need be. Craig also is flexible and open to change. While this is solo a CD project, I consider Craig to be my musical partner, not just my producer. We respect each other's observations and I attribute this to Craig's flexibility and openness. Finally, Craig is just fun to work with. I've really enjoy working with him and I'm excited about completing the project with him. I recommend Craig without reservation. " ~Marilyn Mitchell- Songwriter/Musician~

"Craig is very receptive to ideas and opinions on how to reach the desired goal of the artist he is working with. He is also very thorough in explaining exactly what he is doing while working on a project. Not only did I get a great final result with Craig, but I learned a lot about mixing and mastering myself" ~Fill Up Space (producer of P.N.P.'s "On Tha DL" EP)~

"I am extremely satisfied with the mixing that Craig has done. He puts lots of passion into my project, and exceeds my expectations every time! He is kind, genuine, and overall just a great person to work with!" ~Ziming Li-Composer/Musician~ https://www.youtube.com/user/zmingle
