Jeff is awesome to work with, he is fun creative innovative and easy to communicate with. His music is of it's own vein always offering a wildly unique and transportative flare to his pieces. I definitely reccommend working with Jeff!
Halcyon did an incredible job for me and will use them again for my next recording. I sent Jeff garage-studio tracks for my song "Sunshine", and he turned it into a masterpiece. Thank you for the awesome work. -Dennis, Mantra
Jeff is an excellent producer, mixer and masterer. I've worked with Jeff on six songs from start to finish, all of which turned out masterfully. He has profound musical 'vision' and is a truly well-developed music professional. Jeff has a swift turn around time, and a very specific ear for creating quality, finished products you will hear within a film or on the radio. He is reliable and revolutionary in his sounds. I deeply value my work with Jeff, and his high-level standards for completion.
I had the pleasure of working with Halcyon Ash just recently and he is amazing! After getting a couple of sync placements with one of my songs, I was definitely in need of someone who could help me continue making great music. He was just the person that I needed. Looking forward to working with him again!
