I'd much rather quote other folks than try to write about my own crud, so here are some nice, recent reviews blurbs about projects I've recorded, mixed, produced, what have you...


Roma di Luna

"Together, the happy couple offer a less-than-happy mix of haunting dirges and candlelight ballads on their seven-song CD, "Face of My Friends," right behind Haley Bonar's (soon-to-be-reissued) "Lure the Fox" as this year's prettiest local disc."

"The surprise of this newer old-timey duo, with fiddle-playing wife Channy Moon, is her voice, a chalky and broken-sounding instrument that's as arresting in its way as Jolie Holland's—another sign that the weird-roots scene here and in Duluth is among the country's richest."

"Guitar (courtesy of Alexei) and violin (courtesy of Channy) form the bedrock of the sound, and additional instrumental colors are kept to an absolute minimum: a tambourine here, a bass there and that's pretty much it. The simplicity of the arrangements lets the melodies shine through. Too many roots groups, in my opinioin, swathe their sound in glitz and production, obscuring the downhome appeal of the genre..."


Dosh

Not coincidentally, Dosh's best-sounding and most thoroughly composed album yet...

Dosh's The Lost Take is a stunning album that you should fall immediately in love with.

On Tuesday, he released his third and best full-length Dosh album, "The Lost Take"...

Martin has also been central in the making of Andrew's (Bird) new CD, much of which was recorded at
Ben Durrant's studio in northeast Minneapolis (where some of "The Lost Take" was also laid).
