earth Artists have come from all over the United States and elsewhere specifically to work with Steffen Presley, including Northern and Southern California, Nevada, Arizona, Oregon, Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, South Carolina, The Hawaiian Islands and as far away as Australia and most recently Japan! Here is some of what people are saying about the production, arranging, musicianship and engineering from Steffen. None of the comments on this page were solicited in any way and are quoted exactly!

Wow Steffen...beautiful!!!! loooooveee it. Let me hear more and more...my first impression is that it is really the way it should be....wow. I am sooo glad that I found you to work in this project. You are definitely the right person and you show the sensibility in this song. Like I said let me here more and digest everything....it is definitely many elements to hear and appreciate. I will get back to you more on it. I am also getting ready for the next one. -- Thanks, Ernando

"I went to the Song Co-op in Hollywood on Thursday night and played I Need You Here and I'm Gonna Win This Fight! A guy named Michael Huey who was the featured guest loved my songs. He said I'm Gonna Win This Fight! is amazingly produced and just a great song and should be picked up for a movie. He said he hears a girl group doing I Need You Here and liked that one too. Thanks again on the awesome work."
--Glen Hoffman - songwriter

"Thank you very much. I was impressed your mix. And I learned many things through this project. Your mix is great, because warm, good balance and punch drums. It's my favorite and I think that is professional sound"
--Naoki Nagashima on eSession.com member

Deke and the Blazers Facebook post Sept. 2009:
"Hi Steffen, I'll give you a call and get a video over to you. We are having fun, getting alot of exposure, and meeting the great ones. Our tunes are being played on 7 radio stations across the US. Thanks to your producing!!"
--Jan Detana - Deke and the Blazers

Every song is perfection personified. Well Done!!!!!!! I won't go into a long story, but I have an excellent "ear" when determining the quality of recordings. My singing voice is gone but the ear is still functioning. I always told my son when he had his band and they made a CD, that if you don't have a great sound man, you'll never make it in this business. The next time you see your sound man at the studio, give him a pat on the back and a big thank you because he/she did an excellent job in bringing out the very best of all of your voices.
--Carl, a Deke and the Blazers, fan, regarding their CD which Steffen produced and engineered

Comments on Steffen's keyboard skills

Steffen just posted new live performance solo piano videos on Facebook. Some very recent feedback:

"Man you are amazing Steffen. I have always thought this and watching this again even after recording it just proves that fact. You are an amazing Producer and Sound Engineer as well". 
--Eric Walker - (Eric was the video engineer/editor)

"WOW.....I sat here at my computer intoxicated and mesmerized by your musical compositions. It was wonderful being able to watch and hear you play the piano again. You have always amazed me with your incredible skills. I feel so privileged to have received the link and totally enjoyed every minute of your performance. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will keep this in my email so I can enjoy it again and again."
--Brenda Lee

"I am actually very moved by these improvisations which says a lot cause I've become so picky in my older years and I guess jaded by music that is just not interesting to me. In some ways it's a blessing and a curse. And of course you know neither of us throw compliments out there unless we mean it......LOL"
--Tom Aragon

"amazing ! no wonder have been working with you for 18 years! brilliant!"
-- Greg Hampton

"Steffen, Magnificent! The seamless flow of different genres of music and eras is absolutely beautiful."
-- Jan Detana (Deke and the Blazers)

"Excellent technique! Thanks for sharing!" -- John Torre

     Quotes from reviews of "Why Goodbye", a Buddy Mix recording produced by Steffen and reviewed at www.Garageband.com. Steffen played the piano, as well as most of the other instruments:

"Incomparable, professional work! Great! Very professional work! I'd like to point to great lead vocal, arrangement, perfect piano work" - the Miracle

"Steffen Presley is one of the key ingredients to our success. Without his encyclopedia knowledge of music, his creative capacity to improvise in all styles of music and ability to play the piano, keyboards, saxophone, electric guitar, bass and drums at an absolute bravura level, without his meticulous attention to details, good taste in engineering, both his long lasting patience and never flagging energy, our quick success certainly would have taken a lot longer and been a lot harder."
--- Larry Larson, manager for Kiki Kalor

"In twenty years of recording experience, this is the most fun I've ever had in a studio. The vibe is quite relaxing and inspiring. The quality is phenomenal!"
--- pianist Robin Bealmear, 2006
