I keep writing reviews of Dan which should tell you something...that means I use him every chance I can get! He's simply the best. Since I'm going to use him again, that's the only recommendation you need. Thanks Dan. Oh yeah, he's super fast and gets it right - always the first time.

It was great to work with Dan again, and he'll continue to be my goto guy for mixing and mastering as long as he'll have me. He's super responsive, turns jobs around really fast, and most importantly does a great job. My band is fussy about sound and Dan's mix/master sailed through the gauntlet with thumbs up all around. And he's great and easy to work with. I'll be back.

Second time working with him, and he's just as quick, skilled, and communicative as before. We had been trying for months to fix some issues in our song, and Dan did it in only 2 goes. Highly recommend!

Dan and his production partner Chris played drums and bass on multiple tracks from my upcoming album. Their amazing ideas were exactly what the music needed. Took everything to the next level. Super grateful for their work!
