On Eric’s Film Music:

“Story telling is a combination of ideas and emotions.  Music is the key component to the latter.  The Camera instructs the eye, but music instructs the emotions.  It’s simply to important to be left to anyone who is not completely dedicated to their craft and the process of filmmaking.  Eric has dedication to both in spades, and on top of that – he is flat out talented….  If you don’t work with him, your movie will probably suck.”

Mike Ramsdell, Director of “The Anatomy of Hate”, Under The Hood Productions

 

“Eric is a very gifted composer who doesn’t rest on his natural talent alone but instead works very hard to always push himself to learn more and try new things. He will do whatever it takes to produce the musical score you are looking for. He is also a very good communicator and you never have to worry about where your score is at and if it’s going to come in before the deadline.”

Cort Langeland, Executive Producer, Compass Arts Film Academy
 

 

“I’ve worked with Eric on several projects and enjoyed his professionalism, talents, and company. I’ll work with Eric again in a heartbeat. He’s a valuable, talented, and professional resource.”

Stuart Poltrock, composer and audio engineer, Sound Post USA

 

“Eric has quickly established himself as capable of adapting to the changing landscape of the music business-both with his own projects and on projects that his clients seek him out to handle. Knows his way around a cue sheet, with composition talent to boot.”

Joe Vos, entertainment lawyer

 

“Eric is an amazing composer. He has written music for many of the programs that I have edited and they have all turned out to have excellent sound tracks. He is also a very talented producer and editor. Eric and I have worked on many videos together over the last two years. I really value his creative direction, organization skills and great attitude that really help bring a project together.”

Kent Esmeier, Senior Editor, Grooters Productions

 
“Eric is an extremely talented musician and composer. But he doesn’t just write music – he engages with the film, and its director, in a way that ensures the emotion of the music matches the film. I have had the pleasure of working with Eric and his music on a variety of projects – and I’ve seen his innate ability to recognize the cultural context by which the film was created, thus allowing him to compose music that exudes authenticity. At the same time, each musical idea is unique to itself – you’d be hard pressed to find similar licks or musical ideas throughout his other music. It is an honor to work with Eric, and I hope that I get that chance again in the future!”

Paul Wesselink, Sound Designer-Re-recording Mixer, Grooters Productions

“The music scores you have created have deeply touched me.  Thank you again.”

 

On Eric’s Piano Music:

“Your music has calmed some storms for a friend of mine this week. I listened to it on the way to work and loaned her the CD. I don’t think I am going to get it back.”

 
“I have to tell you–Isla LOVES Eric’s Fruit of the Spirit CD! I play it in the morning for her and she lays completely still and listens–for a really long time!”

-Lindsay Brown-Rumohr – mother of 12 month old 

 

“I am excited for this CD too! And this time it will be for sheer listening pleasure and not for pain relief!  Although I still say your music helped me just about as much as the demerol did before I had my rotten kidney removed!”

 

“Whoa! I’ve been waiting for this for years! All of Philadelphia is awaiting your new CD!!!”
