WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE STUDIO OR MICHAEL:

"As a radio talk host, I have enjoyed the luxury of having a private producer, engineer and musical back-up band all rolled into one. Michael Loonan has provided everything from musical interludes coming back from commercials, to customer made songs for special radio features. He has, without fail, accepted willingly, every single musical challenge put to him and the result has been professional, high caliber, studio quality, musical offerings that have been used on my program for several years. His ability to take a creative suggestion and roll with it, and his unique talents in performing, producing and engineering have been a powerful combination that has enhanced my wee night program from the beginning. He is an asset any programmer would find a rare luxury."
- T.D. MISCHKE (host of the radio program, "The Mischke Broadcast," Mon-Fri, 10 pm - Midnight, ÝKSTP, AM-1500)

"I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with Michael and have the greatest respect for his talents as a musician and video producer. He worked extensively with me at the television production studios of Dayton Hudson Corporation, where he demonstrated his many skills and talents as a composer and producer on various corporate video productions. Foremost is Michael's commitment to any project he works on. He shows dedication to the task and respect for his clients. Michael is one of the most innovative and creative individuals I've worked with."
- WARREN HARMON, (Sr. Manager for Marshall Fields Corporation, Advertising/Photography)

"I have greatly enjoyed working with Michael Loonan for the past several years. He has provided great support and talent for my projects. My work is currently being considered by some major labels, and I want to keep recording at Michael's studio. If instead a label insists that I work at a major studio, I'm bringin' Michael along! I don't think I could work with any other producer."
-KAREN BLOMGREN (recording artist)

"When it came time for the recording and the production of my audiotape on promotion for musicians, Michael Loonan was my only choice as the person to handle the project. His feedback as producer/engineer and musical gifts in his placement of filler piano renditions of his work on the tape upgraded this project by a wide percentage. He is also one of the most creative and extraordinary musicians around. It's exciting to work with a talent like Michael."
--WENDY VICKERS (Writer, Editor, "Wendy V's Local Blend")
