“I have thoroughly enjoyed the professional attitude and skill that Nick has brought to MageMaze. Nick values good communication and he is responsive to feedback as well as design and technical needs. I love his sound effects, but to me, his most impressive skill is the knack for writing relatively short sound loops that remain fun to listen to even after months of constant repetition! The several musical pieces he produced for our game, and even the unused earlier variations, are all top notch and bear constant relistening.”

Michael Dashow,  Creative Director at Kabam,  Artist & Co founder at Robo Dojo

“Nick has always time again proven to be a true professional and leader in his field. He delivers superb results without fail and is never satisfied with anything less than perfection. He delivers quality content on time and every time and goes far beyond the call of duty from the smallest to the largest of tasks”

Ryan Wiancko,  Creative Director,  Ironbelly Studios

“Nick has been an invaluable part for MageMaze - an indie iPhone/iPod Touch title - from the start. His creativity and ability to process feedback brought the game's sound design to new heights. He is a pleasure to work with, well organised and delivers very high quality work.”

Kristof Minneart,  Lead Artist,  Angle Gaming Labs

“Nick is capable of creating audio content of the highest quality, of writing incredibly dynamic and original music in any style, and of working effectively and proactively within a team of remote creative professionals. Switched on to current trends, Nicks work is original, fiercely creative and inspiring.”
