“Within a few hours of sending the mix, he'd sent me back a master that sounded much better than I'd hoped. Great dude, great taste, great ears.”

- Phodiso Dintwe | Producer / Lily Stiven

“…both the songs mastered by Ed sounded absolutely amazing; also, critical feedback before starting the mastering chain helped make the mix sound 10 times better than it was before his guidance; editing the mix with his feedback made the low end tight, and vocals sat right in the pocket, and his advice on guitar levels and drum panning brought the whole song together....”
