Josh's Reviews

5 out of 5

Josh has worked with us on a number of projects. He has been an invaluable collaborator across our music-led work; namely music videos as well as other brand content that required sound design and mix. Not only does he (effortlessly) deliver a professional mix on a deadline, he is a pro drummer, and has rescued us countless times, able to lay down instrument tracks, as well as managing post-production. Working with someone experienced as an active industry musician is really important to us. He is passionate, driven, and highly skilled which translates into his work - our clients love him. James Producer - Studio River

'Huge thanks to Josh for the skill, professionalism and dedication he always brings to his work; Josh is a talented musician with an abundance of knowledge and expertise in the field of sound recording, mixing and production. Josh always provides his skills and creativity to a project in a supportive and patient manner to those he works with.'
