The track they provided is a perfect accompaniment to the dreamy, slow play of Barnacle Goose and I couldn't be happier with how it feels playing on the radio." - Everest Pipkin (The Ground Itself, World Ending Game)

(No Longer Home - audio lead)
"Eli is an accomplished composer capable of writing powerful and ambient music that reflects and adapts to the mood of the scene. They’re incredibly versatile with a keen understanding of the narrative flow of a video game through music and sound." - Cel Davison (No Longer Home)
"No Longer Home has a distinct sense of soul that renders the game’s compelling story even more resonant and intimate, from the inconsistent audio fidelity....to the expressive, exploratory guitars. This is an album for quiet moments, and it repays the listener’s focus in kind." - Bandcamp Best Videogame Music of 2020

The audio turned out exceptionally well and is a core part of the experience. It has been a pleasure working with them, and I'm incredibly happy with the audio design we've ended up with." - Alan Hazelden (A Monster's Expedition, Cosmic Express)
