Testimonials Top studio. Top man. Recommended by the children and other good bands that we know. A pleasure to work with you as we had a slightly tricky task with a deadline - The Children Highly recommended! George is a top engineer who can scale small buildings with just a single step, and you don’t see that every day - Keith I wouldn’t go anywhere else! - Aron Paul George, the master we received was ace. Thank you for your efficient, professional service and your educated ear. We were blown away by the life you brought to the record. Even more impressive was the fact that you were not at all familiar with the material going into the session and yet you were able to capture the exact the feel..... - Ben @ Cuckundoo Records Hiya George! We had a great time recording with you, you truly have an ear for detail, the tracks are sounding marvellous. Take care and HAVE A DAY OFF! - Buen Chico It was a pleasure working with you and we were all impressed at how quickly you understood the sound we were looking for and even more impressed that you managed to record and mix 6 tracks in 3 days (although you did work 24/7). After putting a few new tracks up on myspace we had 750 plays within a 12 hour period. Will definitely be back soon to record our remaining tracks for the album and will be recommending you to others. Will be sending demos out to industry contacts and will give you some feedback.Excellent studio, easy access location and top all-round bloke.Cheers, Jonnybrownshoes Jonny Brown - Adam Clarke - Rick Leeswww.myspace.com/jonnybrownshoes George was a pleasure working with you guys - Vijay Kishore Thanks for the fantastic job on the mastering of our 7" single ’Yuki. Your help & suggestions at the mix stage was much appreciated - Vessels Thanks for all the help on the re edits, they sounded the bomb with the 80 Hertz magic added - Bucky - Sankeys Soap Excellent studio, it’s good to see a creative mind at the helm with keen attention to detail - Jamie Campbell (Crown Music Management & Hunky Dory Music Publishing) Loving that KEITH remix - totally better than their original version, sublime, educated, trippy - Fien:D All the tracks are sounding great George, we’ll be back soon! - Neil Claxton (Faith & Hope Records)
