Testimonials

Dr. (PhD) Yan yang

Engineer at NKAudio, Researcher University of Huddersfield

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Emilio on both music projects and academic collaborations for over a decade. He has consistently shown a strong work ethic, excellent musical ability, and a genuinely collaborative spirit. He’s the person I turn to when creative ideas stall, and someone whose ear I trust deeply when I need a second opinion on a mix.

Dr. (PhD) Niall Thomas

Producer, Lecturer University of Hull

I had the pleasure of teaching and collaborating with Emilio as a student at the University of Hull; we have stayed in touch for the last 10 years and regularly share ideas and technical experiences. Emilio’s work was always professional and considered, and it is wonderful to see that his career thus far has echoed his time as a student. His technical prowess is exceptional, and he has a flair for intricate musical arrangement, as well as contemporary production processes.

Benjamin Bassford

B.A., artist

After working with Emilio periodically for over 10+ years, I could not recommend him in his field of study more highly.

He has provided me with both live/studio recording & sound engineering services. Alongside mixing & mastering on all of my released recordings. Each time I would approach with a diverse and unique idea which Emilio would easily break down, understand & build a strategy to bring us all to the desired conclusion. This came twinned with expanding my understanding of the work/surrounding fields & allowed depth/nuances to develop in my understanding of all our endeavours.

Emilio is an incredibly knowledgeableperson with a talent for facilitating creativity and helping others solve problems. His communication is professional and succinct, making collaborative work with him a breeze. He has given me lots of actionable feedback and advice in my own audio work that I have referred back to numerous times in the past few years. All of which has helped me to achieve my life goal of becoming an audio engineer.
