It has been a true privilege to collaborate with Stephen. His wealth of experience, immense talent, and unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional final products are simply awe-inspiring. Stephen's composed and approachable demeanor made the whole journey even more comfortable and exhilarating for me as a novice. Though I have a knack for penning lyrics and crafting melodies, I'm entirely new to music theory and instrument-playing, yet Stephen was able to breathe life into my compositions from scratch. He mentored me through the areas I'm less conversant with and did it all with boundless patience, infectious enthusiasm, and no trace of criticism. Stephen has a natural connection with music that's almost intuitive. He seems to have a gifted sense of what works best in any given sound setting, and he knows precisely how to execute any song's potential. He's incredibly versatile and accommodates artists' creative preferences with utmost respect and professionalism. The studio facilities are equally impressive with spacious, temperature-controlled areas that are optimally fitted with all the necessary amenities. Working with Stephen has been so fulfilling that I hope to continue this partnership for as long as possible. I'm confident that I will learn a lot more from him as an artist myself. I unequivocally recommend him to anyone!

Our fresh band, Below Canada, found ourselves novices in the realm of home recording, but Stephen expertly mixed and mastered our tracks. Initially, we faced some sound quality hurdles, but Stephen bestowed us with valuable knowledge on equipment and recording techniques to achieve optimal results for our instruments. He collaborated with us throughout the recording journey and transformed our raw tracks into polished masterpieces. No matter the obstacle we encountered, Stephen handled it adeptly and without difficulty. Notably, we were dazzled by his vocal prowess too. As a true artist of his craft, Stephen instinctively understood the essence of each song and required no explanation. Moreover, his technical competence rendered the recording, mixing, and mastering process a walk in the park. Steve added significant and minute elements to improve our music and continue to impress us with his finesse. Our experience with Stephen was an enriching learning curve, and without a doubt, he is the ultimate choice. We wholeheartedly endorse Stephen and look forward to him being our go-to for the upcoming album!

The experience of working with Stephen was extremely pleasant! Being a novice to a studio environment, I was quite apprehensive but he managed to calm my nerves and skillfully lead me through the process. Stephen demonstrates exceptional attention to detail in every aspect of production, mixing, and vocal recording. Moreover, he provides constructive feedback and suggestions during the course of the project. He welcomes and accommodates your ideas, exhibiting patience with their execution. Both Stephen and Max possess amiable personalities, making them affable collaborators. Not only are they remarkable individuals, but their diligence and commitment in every session convinced me that my investment was worthwhile. A fantastic establishment to engender music that evokes genuine elation and pride!

When I approached Stephen with a short deadline, a set of lyrics, and my preferred music genre, he delivered a song that went above and beyond my expectations. I am thoroughly impressed and will definitely return for future projects!

Helvig Productions provided the perfect recording studio experience that I was seeking. Their prompt response to my inquiry led to a personal tour of their facility by Max, who later became my point of contact. Upon booking my initial session, Max inquired about my requirements to ensure that the session ran smoothly. Their attention to detail and quality of service was truly impressive. Whenever I'm in town, Helvig Productions is my go-to studio for recording.
