Some testimonials from songwriter clients.....

".........We were keen to find someone who could produce our songs.  In Nigel we found not only the man with the talent, know-how, and expertise, but also a guy who was clearly empathetic with what we were trying to achieve.  We were delighted with the results achieved with the first few songs we recorded in ‘Middle C Productions’ and have been inspired to write and record many new songs – we are now on our 2nd album! .........." 

- Ian Marshall, The Storeys
 

"..........The final track sums up the work on the whole album - professional, inspired, innovative, and just a 'great listen' - you've taken a set of average tunes and turned them into 10 big songs. Terrific! Thanks Nigel.........."

 - John Corrigan, The Purple Kites




"..........Thank you Nigel for believing in my work and understanding what I'm trying to achieve. I am blown away by the colour and texture you have added to my songs. You are fantastic to work with and I can't wait to get on with the next compositions! ......."

- Michelle King, singer-songwriter

Voiceover and Speech

Aside from the stunning results that we achieve with musical projects we can also capture the spoken word in the same uncompromising quality.  We have worked on many voice-related projects from commercial voiceovers and interviews to narration of books or poetry for authors.

We can provide an entire sound production - music, effects and voice -  to give your seminar or product launch the necessary impact.

We have a very comfortable and well-equipped air-conditioned vocal recording area and a good selection of top-quality microphones to capture all voices and styles.
