Tchad Blake about one of his session : " It was really well produced and recorded " !

His biggest asset is that : "I myself am a musician and I have a large number of sessions as such, to my name . I am well placed to recognize the artistic will and direction of a band, and to get them to where they want to go".

    I made a terrible mistake by NOT choosing Wild Horse Studio initially. When it was clear I was going down the wrong road with the wrong producer, I sent François a note to see if he'd like to take a whack at one song on the upcoming EP; he crushed it. I was amazed at the results... so much so that I lost money by throwing away the returned files from the other producer. François is excellent to work with. His warmth shines through in his results! I will work with him from now on again and again.

    Francois is an expert and a magician - he is able to satisfy every request and does not stop until the project is complete and the client is satisfied. His expertise and attention to detail elevated the music.

    Artist. Gentleman. Heightened sense of aesthetics. Command of technology. Open-hearted and open-minded. Endless creative ideas and different approaches one can take and willing to do the work required to achieve his vision. These are the qualities we look for in friends and how wonderful to find them in a working relationship. His reviews are well-deserved. DO listen to his mixes and HIS music, as well. Highest praise and gratitude.

    François' Wild Horse Studio promised a nice, warm analog mix and more than delivered! François is communicative, understands the body of work, and turned my music around quickly, with expertise, and great care. I will be using Wild Horse Studio again and again.

    Wild did an excellent job mixing and mastering a single for me. I especially enjoyed being able to ask for alterations to the first draft of the mix. Looking forward to working with him again in the future.

    It is such a pleasure to work with François. He did an amazing job on my mix. The delivery time was very quick. The mix has a very modern feel. His communication was good and his mix input definitely benefitted the song. I am looking forward to working with him on the next song.
