Exceptional Audio Quality
When doing reissue work, I come across every format under the sun, especially from the earlier days of digital when it seems like there was some new format invented every week that was supposed to be "the one". I've yet to come across a format Paul can't transfer. I've yet to come across a tape, drive or disk that Paul can't coax all of the information out of. I've personally attended as many transfer sessions as possible because Paul is such a joy to spend time with - and just an absolute fountain of knowledge. In addition to seemingly knowing all there is to know about every format ever invented, including how to repair the machinery and whatever vessel the sound is stored on, Paul is a mean cook and will make you a healthy and delicious meal if you attend a session. I honestly can't recommend anyone higher than I would Paul and I feel frustrated because my vocabulary isn't large enough to truly encapsulate just how great he is at what he does.

Tremendous work, maticulous, taking great care given the fragile nature of the projects we've undertaken togther. With a plethora of equipment and a great ear so many re-issues for SFA have began here. I've worked with Paul for over 10 years which says it all, indeed having to recall old work in that time also. Baking tapes, glitch free DATs and qulaity transfers need look no further. Thanks Paul .

Paul is a magician in the retrieval of sound from the history of time. I discovered him when trying to unearth an album made in 1998 and stored on an old data tape. There was almost no-one left in the world who could get this data off the original tape so we could remaster the album. His care and dedication to the process was extraordinary and his knowledge of restoration of old media is second to none. I can not recommend his services more highly. Mike .

Paul it’s not difficult to review absolute quality talent and I feel so privileged to have been a part of your journey. Now beside your unique music talents I was so impressed with your ability to simply speak about feelings. I was totally moved to hear those words which often are kept silent hidden deeply. Its been over 40 years ago when we met in Gisborne carrying sand upstairs in a Recording Studio you were designing and building. As a choreographer finding music that complemented my vision was always a challenge….but we clicked. From a Rugby Dance for ABC Australia Documentary “KIWI’S which featured SIX KIWI’S and I was one! Paul magic fingers composed and recorded then mastered the music in one evening. Paul is certainly “exuberant” (like I am) had me listen his composition he called “SEARCH” so I choreographed the dance “SEARCH”. Now 40 plus years later I listened to Paul on podcast where I felt so privileged to remember SEARCH the dance...WOW. So my friend you deserve a thumbs up in so many ways…
