Testimonials

“Tony is everything a producer should be and more. He's an extremely talented multi-instrumentalist with an amazing ear and a deep knowledge of music theory. He can hear your "vision" of your song with just a vocal melody and a few chords (or in my case, a simple bass line or root notes). But perhaps most importantly, he's kind and funny and supportive, and no matter how much music and recording experience you have (or don't have), he meets you just where you are and helps you get to where you want to be.” - Golda (singer-songwriter)

“Working with Tony has elevated my creative output like never before! I’m a Singer/Songwriter based out of London and New York. Tony’s studio is well located and well equipped with everything you need to make a hit record. In my view what sets Tony apart from other studios is Tony strong background in music theory, composition and songwriting structure. This comes in handy when composing music and putting down vocals. I find it very useful to come to the studio with vague ideas and as the session evolves these vague ideas turn into songs.I highly recommend Tony as a producer/ engineer for your next project.” - Sultrix Marcus (Singer-Songwriter)

“After so many shitty music situations it was somewhat shockingly smooth and perfect working Tony. A positive new beginning for me, and a template on how I will make all my future music. As a producer he was able to take my ideas and expand on them to make my song truly come to life. As an engineer he created a sound that I can forever be proud of. He was very easy to work with, professional and organized. His ear and work ethic is very impressive. I will be working with him in the future for sure. Tony is the real deal!" - Marcus Harmon (Singer-Songwriter)

“From the melody in your head to mastering your finished track, Tony hears your ideas and brings them to life in the most collaborative way possible.  It’s a personal experience you won’t get with just any other recording space. He’s always willing to lend his expertise, experiment with effects and sounds, or just let you do your thing 100%." - Danny Ensanian (The Bridge and Tunnel Crowd)

“For years I could only play my songs on an acoustic guitar. For years, I wanted to transform them to something more. But no matter whom I worked with, I was never able to translate what I had in my head to a recording I was proud of. Enter Tony. From day one, he was so welcoming and encouraging, and his producing skills are pristine. He took all those random thoughts I could barely articulate and somehow helped me mold them into exactly what I had always hoped forIf you're looking for someone to produce your music, Astoria Park Recording is where you need to be. I promise you, you will not regret it." - Michael Jayson (Singer-Songwriter)
