    I had a great experience working with John. He answered all my questions, provided useful feedback on the mix, and turned in an excellent final master that both incorporated my feedback and added the right finishing touch to the song. I will definitely work with him again - much recommended.

    Great session working with John - due to covid our session was remote, but this worked really well with comms over WhatsApp and a live audio feed to monitor the track. Final audio sounds stellar. Looking forward to the next one!
