Testimonials
We approached Dave after hearing 65daysofstatic rave about his ability to bring the best out of them. We had a big vision but not the experience to fully realise it. Dave’s real skill was shaping the weird, wonderful human moments we created in the studio into something that sounded distinctly Civil Service. We often joke that Dave is the unofficial fifth Civil Servant, but his influence is there every time someone listens to the record or sees us play live.”
Civil Service
“
I’ve worked with Dave on Band Spectra from the very beginning. Over the past five or six years his input across mentoring, recording, arranging and mixing has been essential to the project. Dave has become a key part of Band Spectra.”
Band Spectra
“
Having Dave at the desk means we can focus on ideas rather than the mechanics of recording. He understands where we want to get to but isn’t afraid to challenge the route we take, which often leads to the best results. Dave brings fresh ideas, direction and a sense of momentum that makes sessions both productive and creatively open.”

“
We’ve worked with Dave for more than a decade across different projects and keep coming back because he always delivers. He gives space for experimentation while keeping the session moving in the right direction. With Dave you always leave the studio knowing the record will sound better than you expected.”
The Bad Actors
“
We’d wanted to work with Dave for years, so it was a real pleasure finally bringing him into the studio with us. His past work speaks for itself, and hearing him bring that same care to our music has been a joy. Our new material has never sounded so lush and full.”
New Ghost
“
Working with Dave was a brilliant experience and one I’m excited to repeat. The sessions had a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and he was always open to ideas, which really helped the recording process flow.”
