What People Say

 

“James absolutely took my songs to a different level and motivated me to do the same. I’m forever gonna be promoting him and Moonlight Audio... absolutely the type of person I want to work with when it comes to music.”

— Michael Davanzo (A Lightweight)

“Wow! James not only engineered our EP, but he produced the hell out of it. He literally took the ideas out of our heads and made them real with such ease. The professionalism and knowledge was astounding. We never thought we'd get the sounds/tones we imagined on this record and James made that happen as if we we're recording in a multi-million dollar studio with someone who has been doing this for 30+ years. We cannot wait to come back!

— Sean McDermott (The First Days of Spring/Take Off Charlie)

“At a time where I wasn't doing any recording in Columbus (though a resident), a friend of mine recommended James at Moonlight. What a gift of advice that was! The first time I went in, I brought a lush, 7-minute song. James basically had the final mix on the first try. That's crazy.

He has excellent pop sensibilities, clean mixer, and down for sound experiments and goofing around (you need this)… Thanks for crushing it on our songs.”

— Jonny McAllister (Radderall)
