TESTIMONIALS
-
“I’ve been working with Joni on different projects since 2013 and I can’t help but admire the way he handles sound. A multi-talent who can compose, play instruments, mix and master. Not to forget how great he is as a person too <3”
Tuomas Kokko
Producer, Rec & Mixing engineer / Electric Fox Studios

"I have been working with Joni intensively for almost all my choreographic work and theatre performances since 2009. Our collaboration includes dance/theatre performances, dance movies and documentaries on my work. Joni is a true professional and extremely versatile in what he can produce. He is fast - faster than any composer I’ve worked with- and positions himself for the service of the greater good of the work. He is a joy to work with and inspires me every time also to create choreography and scenes that I didn’t think of at first."
Cecilia Moisio
Choreographer & producer

”I’ve had mixing with vox+instrumental and mastering done at Tape Over. I’ve appreciated well-reasoned creative solutions in mixing as they have made the song better every time. Masters play loud, but well. Musicality and knowledge of the genre is definitely a plus with these guys.”
Matti Huhta
Rapper & Producer / Sere
-
