“Antony is an exceptional mastering engineer. We used his services for our first album, where he mastered 13 individual singles across a year. He has a great ear, and his process was consistent, transparent and considered. He is open to ideas and suggestions, but generally his first pass is just what you're looking for. We have even A/B'd Antony's work on our records with a couple of Grammy-winning mastering engineers' attempts, and his came out on top! “

"My last four albums have been mastered by Antony Ryan and I cannot give high enough praise for the quality of both the mastering itself and the work relationship: Antony’s patience, attention to detail, willingness to explain options and choices, as well as his kindness combined with absolutely reliability and professionalism,  make him an absolute pleasure to work with, and make this last part of preparing an album for release as painless and as enjoyable as possible. Very warmly recommended."

“After years of working with some of the biggest names in mastering I discovered Antony four years ago and haven’t looked back.

Antony, has without doubt the best ears, taste and experience of any mastering engineer I’ve worked with. His ability to dial in exactly what the track needs, regardless of whether that is simple or heavily involved, doesn’t just improve the track technically but without exception improves the track artistically too.  His communication is great, he will accommodate tight timelines and is always a pleasure to talk to.

It's safe to say I will never choose to work with another mastering engineer again.“

“I’ve known Antony for many years having originally connected with him through Isan’s Myspace page. A big fan of his music - and sound - I was excited to hear several years back he was setting up as a mastering engineer. When my current artist project Blood Wine or Honey were looking for mastering RedRedPaw was our first choice - great flexibility, fast turn around, keen pricing, and perfect masters. I’ve also had old 1990s DATs from The Magus Project mastered and they sound amazing. Highly recommended.”

“Antony has mastered nearly all the Seahawks releases over the past ten years and many projects for the Lo Recordings label. We've always found his mastering spot on and his flexibility when it comes to amendments really gives him the edge.”

“Antony Ryan (RedRedPaw) is our ‘go to’ mastering engineer here at Home Assembly, particularly for vinyl. He understands what we’re after, has a great ear for detail and  consistently delivers top quality masters that bring the best out of our recordings - across a range of genres."

Barrie Cummings - Home Assembly Music - UK

"In the 10 years of this label, I've come to consider Antony's mastering as an integral component of what we do.  Because he's an experienced musician himself, I've always been 100% confident that he's always on our wavelength and recognises exactly what a track needs.  RedRedPaw unquestionably has Second Language's stamp of approval"

Glen Johnson - Second Language Music / Piano Magic - UK

“I've used Antony for my mastering since I started my label in 2011. He has an amazing attention for detail, and his knowledge about the technicalities of mastering for vinyl is second to none.  He has also always gone the extra mile, helping out and making suggestions when we have been approving test pressings. Most importantly his masters always sound great. “
