Erik is fantastic! This was my first project on SoundBetter and I received several great proposals from really talented and kind musicians. It was very hard to choose. Erik evaluated my needs so that I could meet my budget, provided a short preview clip to demonstrate what I might expect, and completed the project sooner than expected. He was very responsive to messages and has been very kind and patient with a newbie! I look forward to working with him again very soon! Thank you, Erik!
check_circleVerifiedI have worked with Erik on multiple songs for about half a year now. It's been such a privilege working with him! He's both professional and personable and he cares so much about the quality of his work. He brought 8 of my piano pieces to their fullest potential and I'm so thrilled to release my album "Adventures of Solitude" in the next few months thanks to him. Because of Erik, I have learned a ton about music arrangement/production and more importantly, I have gained a friend in the process!

This is my second time working with Erik. He never ceases to amaze! I sent him 4 songs this time and he worked incredibly well with each piece. His work included a beautiful arrangement of strings, harp, celeste and even his own live recording on the glockenspiel overlaying my piano composition. He is always faithful to my songs and knows exactly how to bring them to a deeper, richer, level. Cannot recommend enough!
check_circleVerifiedErik is a true mastermind! I sent him a piano composition I wrote that I was already pleased with, but I wanted it to be produced professionally with the addition of strings and added elements to make it more cinematic. Erik gave my song a listen and knew how to bring it to its fullest potential. He worked hard and gave me updates periodically. The final production conveyed the exact emotion, ups and downs, and sense of adventure that I had envisioned when writing the piece. I am beyond pleased!
check_circleVerifiedErik is great. Highly responsive, very accurate, great to work with!
