Easily one of the best guys here. Brought my idea to life with only minimal guidance and captured the mood and feel of my references perfectly. Great musical instincts, and a master of sound design too! Don't be impressed by profile pictures of someone sitting behind a huge console desk, Alex is the real deal!

Brilliant! I gave Knox a difficult brief but he hit it out of the ballpark. Just like he says in his profile, he "gets" it. Talented musician and knows the technical stuff inside and out. We'll be working together again.

I have always been in awe of Teddy Fontana’s music, so when she introduced me to Knox I was beyond excited. I was so unsure of what I wanted in terms of production for our first song that I asked him to ‘go with his gut’. The results were INCREDIBLE. He knew exactly what the song needed - it felt so natural and epic all at once. His intuition and ingenuity are so spot on no matter the genre. I am always at ease in the studio with him - the environment is creative and productive; plus, it’s truly awe-inspiring watching his skills and efficiency. I recommend him to absolutely everyone!

Where do I begin! From creating our first song “Love or Lust” in just one day on the first day we ever met I knew I was going to want to work with Knox again! His talent and skill along with our ability to work together as a team has produced some of the most productive studio sessions and high quality music I could ever dream of. His ability to see, understand and bring my vision into reality exactly as I desire is a quality that is very hard to find in a producer and has not gone unnoticed. Knox will work tirelessly to guarantee satisfaction with your tracks! Quality work, life changing!
