Adrian provides a mindblowing sound and I deeply admire his professional and artistic approach to even my most unusual and demanding pieces of music. He always finds a solution that is far better than I had expected - it's a divine pleasure working with him.

Enjoyed working with Adrian. He is really helpful and very patient. This was our first time working together. The whole experience was relaxed with no pressure but at the same time totally professional. Quality of the final track is superb and the musicality is addictive. I recognize the quality and thoroughly recommend working with Adrian and plan to do so again.

Working with Adrian was a pleasure from the get-go all the way to the finish line - the song development and his production being world class resulting in a superb product.
An amazing producer! Along with the highest level of talent and skill, he brings to the table patience, attention to detail and cooperative spirit often lacking in creative endeavours of this kind by professionals of his caliber! I am looking forward to an opportunity to work with Adrian again! Highly recommended! - check_circleVerified
Simply the best!... Adrian's skills and professionalism are on such a different level to most producers. He breathes music and has an awesome understanding of so many genres, he never ceases to amaze me. Thanks once again for a brilliant piece of music!

Adrian is a true magician when it comes to music production, he really can accomplish the impossible. Again I had a very special and demanding track for voice, violin and drums in a genre of its own. Adrian immediately got my idea, worked hard and made sure I was satisfied with all the details. Amazingly professional work!

I really enjoyed working with Adrian. He helped me a lot and immediately understood what I was looking for for my song. He is very punctual in his answers and deliveries. I made my first song with him, he gave me all the steps to publish it in the best possible way. I hope to be able to work with Adrian again!!

Adrian is an extremely attentive producer and was very patient working with me. From beginning to end, he was able to guide me through the nuances of the song creation process and easily explained the matter so I could understand. I absolutely adore working with Adrian and would definitely want to work with him in the future!

Adrian Zag is arguably the best producer on SB... His numerous Top 40 hits with major labels are a testimony to his incredible skills. He is also a great songwriter. Once again, this was truly an unforgettable experience: Adrian sprinkled stardust all over my new song and turned it into a masterpiece... I love working with him, his talent and great personality make everything appear so easy!

I am, let's say...particular about my music, and have an extremely specific vision in mind for each production element. I know I am not the easiest type of client to work with. Adrian not only handled my nit picky nature like an absolute pro, he did so while creating a production that makes my music sound better than I thought possible. He really understands the songs intuitively and knows just how to bring out the best parts.
This is the guy. Thank you Adrian!

I worked with Adrian for my third song this time and I am always grateful to have him as my music producer on my music journey! We worked on a dance pop song this time, a different style compare with the two ballad songs before, and it sounds incredibly amazing too!
- check_circleVerified
Adrian is always being responsive and gave me the best advices on my music! This is our second song working together, it’s a ballad song like the first one, but he did an amazing arrangements on my both songs and also sound those two ballad songs different beautifully. Adrian is one of the greatest music producer that I have met and work with!

Adrian is a very experienced and talented and responsive music producer, he is helping me with my upcoming EP for a few songs and I am a singer from Hong Kong, so besides English; there are some songs in Cantonese but music itself is an international language, so it didn’t affect Adrian’s judgment and he did the arrangements very nicely.
PS: Adrian spent his precious time to have zoom meeting with me before we started the project, and after chatting I think he’s the one who I am looking for
