I'm just so nervous about things like this after the 99 Dollar Orchestra fiasco. Is there follow through? Are people getting their files on time and liking the results?

Hi Matt,

We are a group of industry professionals offering shared sessions as part of our service. We have been operating for the last year and you can view testimonials from composers such as Craig Armstrong and view lots of session footage on our site. All sessions are delivered on time and are of the highest quality using principals and members from orchestras such as BBC SSO, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, and SCO. We are offering UK standard recording with this new model and we are fully approved contractors of the Musicians Union https://www.musiciansunion.org.uk/H...asting/Session-Musicians/Approved-Contractors

Do get in touch if you'd like more info - or do get in touch with any of our last clients for references (such as noxtenebrae17)

Fantastic experience with Clockwork. Very easy to work with. Great sounding recording quality and top-notch players. I was able to connect with them online and listen/interact while they were recording the section for my song. I thought of a couple of dynamic and note changes I wanted to change as I was listening and they did it on-the-spot. Definitely recommended!

Hi Matt,

Clockwork Sessions is definitely one of the best groups you can work with. The players are really fantastic (some of the best UK players) and Kobus and Adam (producer/conductor) are great to work with. They give you good feedback on what they'd recommend doing with the score to get the performance you're looking for. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

I will be working with them again in the future.
