"On behalf of the band I would just like to give you a HUGE thanks for all the work you have done! You've been super easy to work with and the whole process has been great!" Mitchell - Deja Vu's, Jun 16

"Huge thanks Paul for a fantastic master. You've turned our collection of far-flung collaborations (each one recorded in Afica and Australia) into a proper album. Thanks too for working through some our more eccentric mixes. You've done an awesome job in opening up the music and expertly harnessing the full spectrum of sounds. .... Thanks again for the excellent master Paul." Liam, Duderama/The Mask, Nov 15

"(The master) sounds amazing! You did a great job! There is a balance in the recording which wasn't there before and it's way less bass/bottom end heavy now which was drowning out some of the subtlety from some of the other instruments - particularly now you can get hear more of piano accordion and the bassoon is a real highlight. Thank you so much!" Anthony Guilbert, Machette

"I'm very happy with the end result, thanks for your magic touch." Roxy Lavish,  Roxy Lavish and the Suicide Cult

"Paul did a great job mastering my new album and I am very happy with the results. He approaches each new project with a lot of care and empathy and was very easy to communicate ideas with, whilst fostering a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere in which to work.” Dan Brodie

"[Fox] has the knack of bringing an album extra warmth and cohesiveness with a strong ability to give the songs every possible chance for radio play. His imprint on our work has surely helped create JJJ airplay and strong reviews." - Kieran Carroll, The Beautiful Few

"We went to Paul Fox on the recommendation of our mixer. As it was our first album we didn't want to take chances. We got quotes from all other places, but we are so happy with the sound Paul got on our record. We love all the stuff like Beatles, Phoenix, and Oasis and our album sounds good when it lands alongside these recordings on our iPods. If you're looking for an affordable master that doesn't sound 'affordable', get on to him.” The Bell Parade

"Honestly, I can't find words that I could use to express to you how impressed I am with what you turned that recording into. It sounds perfect! I played in the car and in my bose system it sounded so professionally done and you can capture so much that the original simply couldn't! ” Amala Kirtan, Dallas Texas

"The master sounds great, we're very happy. The other guys in the band were totally digging it, now they realised how important a mastering job on the mix is." - Via email, Andrew Porter, High Fangs
