    I've had the incredible privilege of collaborating with Josh for over 5 years. He is an exceptional creative partner and has a unique ability to bring a vision to life. His talent, creativity, and dedication to crafting exceptional records has consistently elevated my work to new heights and has been instrumental in shaping some of my most memorable records.

    Loved working with Josh for a couple days for a live performance series filmed at Parachute Studios. He is an absolute professional. Not only is he organised, attentive and delivers excellent quality work, but he is also a really kind and caring person. Josh took great care in getting the best sound possible both during the set up, recording, post, mixing and mastering and I couldn't be happier with the result.

    I had the absolute pleasure of working with Josh on my project “Superstar” and his work ethic was nothing short of amazing! I really appreciate having full professionalism while in the studio space and Josh presented exactly that. His talent is one of a kind and he has been really easy to work with. His knowledge within the audio world is one I really had faith and trust in and receiving a mix from him was always highly anticipating. I can’t wait to work with him soon again! Juju x

    Worked with Josh, recording brass and vocals. He's got great ears and he's very professional. And, my favourite thing, he's time efficient without being impatient.

    Josh is a brilliant mix engineer. He really understands what a song needs and is really receptive to feedback or input from the artist. He works really hard to enhance the song and deliver a mix that sounds great in all environments. I’ll definitely be working with Josh again and recommending him to all my friends.

    Josh has mixed five projects for me, and I consistently return to work with him because he approaches each project with a level of dedication that goes far beyond simply completing a task. He strives to achieve the best possible results for the artists he works with, treating every mix with meticulous care and respect.

    His understanding of the modern sonic landscape, coupled with his passion for hip-hop, R&B, and alternative/pop is a huge drawing point for me.

    Josh is a fantastic engineer with a brilliant ear for nuance across various genres. He mixed my debut EP & did a stellar job - highly recommend working with him on whatever project you have!

    I worked with Josh on my EP and couldn't recommend him more.
    Professional, affordable, and delivered on every deadline I had.
    His clear and timely communication meant collaborating, even while remote, was a breeze. Whether it was a quick tweak or a full mix, Josh always nailed exactly what I needed.
