I requested a guitar-only track, and Alex delivered. Twice. His "rough draft" (if you will), was nearly perfect. I casually mentioned that I liked it when he sort of Jimi Hendrix riffed on the chords, and with that, Alex delivered a revised version that included more of what I liked. EASY to work with, turn-around time was super-fast. He intuitively got what I was going for. AND, he even delivered a PDF with his chords/changes -- He under-promised, and over-delivered. Brilliant.

I knew once I heard Alex's samples on his profile that his style would be great for the project I was working on. His turn around time was great and the elements he added to the song took it to a whole new level.

Alex did exactly what I wanted, with high quality. Would recommend him 100%. Definitely gonna work with him more in the near future
I always look forward to working with Alex. He always has great input on production and his guitar parts always finds a way to steer the song in the right direction. Alex has a way of playing and writing the parts you didn't know you wanted to hear. He not only delivers exactly what you ask, he takes it to an entirely different level and brings a new life to any track. Incredibly proud to work with him and looking forward to our next session. Alex is a PRO!
Alex is hands down one of the most creative, talented, professional, and kind people I’ve ever worked with. His ability to ALWAYS come up with the perfect guitar part with the perfect tone blows me away. The man can do it all, from shredding your face off to smooth jazzy chords to lush ambient textures. Most importantly Alex is a great guy and a joy to work with. GO HIRE HIM!
