“Recording at Babblefish Studios was absolutely delightful. The recording studio itself was spacious and fully equipped with a cavalcade of instruments, and the engineers and producers were super professional, not to mention talented. The album sounds amazing and I owe it to my experience at Babblefish Recording Studios! Having recorded in NYC and London, this recording experience in a small town in Ohio was more than up to par. It exceeded my expectations.”

“Damn proud of everything we've done for sure, never felt more comfortable. Steve makes it easy to explore and create during the process, and is always willing to lend a hand to enhance it. I like Steve's personable approach to Individual projects."

“The guys at Babblefish became part of our band for the time we were in the studio. They worked just as hard as we did (if not harder), and took our project further than I had intended for it. I'm very pleased with the quality of work, the time, the effort, and the passion they put in. I recommend them to everyone I know who may be looking to record in the future.”

“When I started my label in Sept. 2008, the first person I talked to was Babblefish Studios owner/producer, Steve Falearos. He encouraged me, helped guide me, mentored me as a producer, and became one of my closest friends. Also, he took a chance on me. And with that chance, we have together recorded 8 amazing albums at this wonderful studio, and mastered 2 others. Babblefish has handled it all. From rock, to punk, to folk, country, and metal, the list goes on, all the while treating every artist and their music, with the utmost respect and kindness. Engineer Dustin Ryan, also became a close friend. Spending countless hours dialing amps, setting up mics, working on mixes, and hearing things nobody else does, he is also, truly amazing. I could talk about the great gear, the amazing board, and the cozy rooms, but why? It truly is the people who matter. Steve and Dustin, Thank You. Zorin, Jay, Jerry, and Jimmy, Thank You. Theo, Thank You. Without Babblefish Studios, I don't know where Smiling Handshake Records would be. Much peace and love, MK “

He is always committed to manifesting people’s visions with a lot of sensitivity & efficiency. The studio has a really warm & inspiring atmosphere; I recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality yet affordable place to record.”

“I've only recorded in three studios, but in the end, isn't the comfort/encouragement what matters the most? Hands down, for me, that would be Babblefish!”
