"The recording is excellent, better than many studio records I've heard."
- Bob Gulla, The Providence Phoenix
"Randy has good production ideas to offer every time we go in."
- Brent Mulligan, The Drive
"I highly recommend the 'Newcastle Sound' experience. Randy gets solid and innovative performances from artists when working in the studio. Whether it's his ability to find the right part to energize a track, or his passion for analog tone, he provides value and quality results."
- Dana White, Specialized Mastering
I've never had a better or more stress-free time recording. We wanted to try some weird stuff recording-wise, and Randy was always up for it. There's no one I'd rather work with."
- Jeff Belcher, Carfax Abby
