I would recommend Sam for any projects that are looking for a dedicated, hard-working, and friendly composer. A+ work every time!’ - Beetle Dude, ‘DeFi Kingdoms’

‘Sam is a gem. He has made several tracks for my game and each of them funky gold, I kid you not. Most people that play the game actually comment on how nice the music is. He's also just great to work with. Communication is easy and quick via Discord. I often give very vague feedback because when it comes to musical terms I'm a simpleton. But he manages to understand my hums and grunts and knows exactly what I mean. Delivery time usually is quite fast too. Some of the bangers he made for my game were completed in not even 2 days. In case the above didn't make it clear enough: I highly recommend working with Sam.’ - Jonathan, ‘Billy Bumbum’
