    Dan is literally the kindest person & a joy to work with. As a new musician and songwriter, he supported me through the process of getting started and was very patient with me while I learned something new. Collaborating on my song was easy and fun! I’m so grateful and I love the song we created.

    Extremely professional, easy going and understanding. He was very patient with me as this was my first experience mixing a song of mine and was able to turn my roughly recorded demo into something I love and am proud of. Dan answered all of the questions I had. Extremely fast turnaround time. I cannot wait to work with him again!
