"My experience at Listen Without Borders has been very positive. I recorded my single, Palace of Love , with Ari and was very impressed with the production and have received a lot of positive comments on the track. I like the fact that Ari is very calm, patient and laid back. He also really listens to my ideas and implements them into the production, resulting in a finished product that still maintains my creative vision. Ari is also a talented multi-instrumentalist who possesses the strong intuition needed to create great music. I was so pleased with my recording that I have hired Ari to produce my debut album and look forward to the finished product"
""I highly recommend Ari and Listen Without Borders to any world musicians out there, or any artists looking for a fresh sound. Working at LWB was a lot of fun, even if it meant driving up from Michigan. Ari has big, sensitive ears and was able to sculpt the unique sounds of the krar, a traditional ethiopian instrument, and seamlessly integrate them into a bed of contemporary sounds. He has an innate talent for quickly grasping the core of the song and painting a beautiful canvas around that core. Ari is also, quite simply, a great musician with deep musical intuition, jamming with him has been incredibly fulfilling. I am very happy with the finished product from LWB, from the music, to the artwork and the web store. I will definitely be back for my next album."
""I don't know how you did it, but you nailed it. Loved it absolutely, I have to hear it again. As far as meta meta, I liked the first version, I hear somewhat of a crackle at the end of the second version. Anyway, I'm going home happy, thanks a lot. I love Sunshine, it is exactly what I imagined. Again, thank you for being patient with me. I am more than ecstatic about working with you and happy that you are able to work with me."
""I love it!! You made me sound like an angel...wow you must have brought out all your high tech gear to do that!! You've kept the sound true to it's beginnings and put "sparkles" of music all around it with new sounds and bass line and it works beautifully".
" hahaha...I was really blown away but the results of your hard work!!! I like the idea of a rap verse... I'm really pumped about what you've done with this song Ari...I know my last email probably gave you clue as to that!! You've really outdone yourself...I'm really impressed!!! VERY!!! Heard it a gazillion times and still not bored with it!!!"
""When Newman Hattersley needed a customized on-hold message, we contacted Ari at LWB. Ari was able to provide us with three very unique musical approaches from which we chose one that fit perfectly with our organization's image and industry. Ari also assisted us with our narrative script on paper and in the studio. Equipped with the latest recording technology, Ari helped Newman Hattersley create an effective, current and upbeat on-hold message that far exceeds the standards set by larger recording companies. Ari's talent, professionalism and positive attitude from concept to well after completion is to be commended. We absolutely recommend Ari and LWB for any projects, corporate or otherwise and very much look forward to working with him again."

"Ari at LWB has been a great help to us the past couple of years and we look forward to future work with him. When our web site became too sophisticated and time consuming for what we could manage, LWB stepped in with the professionalism, efficiency, and reliability that are required in a business environment. Ari was very capable in implementing cold fusion secure file delivery strategies and verity search engines, as well as permanently correcting ongoing errors that other companies were not able to fix. LWB has extremely competitive pricing, and as a non-profit organization we are always mindful of expenses. Knowing this, Ari also took the initiative to suggest new hosting and registrar services that would not only save us money but would increase the reliability of our web site. We highly recommend Ari and LWB for any of your business needs."

"Well, I was so surprised when the Cds arrived. I love the artwork and the design. I was nervous to listen to the final product but so pleased when I heard them. YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB!!! Thank you so much!" -excerpted from a card
"Ari is one of the best musician/composer you can imagine. He has helped me grow with my song-writing craft and my singing. He has amazing talent and knowledge of music and a true heart to help his clients. He really made me love music more every time I visited his studio. I am not an experienced studio singer but Ari has a knack of setting artists at ease and getting the best performance out of them. I have a lot of fun working with Ari and am currently in the process of recording the rest of my album at LWB. Most of the people who heard my songs ask me who composed the music and comment on the beautiful melodies that are soo catchy."
"Ari was great working on my art installation project. It was a large project that involved recording 15 different poets in 15 different languages and then adding percussion and special effects to make the tracks come alive. Ari did a wonderful job, his creativity is limitless, to make 15 different tracks with different emotions and moods. I knew he would be good but was still astonished at how wonderful it all sounded. My exhibition is currently showing in Ann Arbor and will soon be in Chicago and New York. People love the soundtrack and I have been getting requests for a compilation CD."
"I commissioned LWB to write a song as a gift for my close friend's wedding. The idea dawned on me very last minute and LWB was given around 1 mweek to get the idea into a finish product. LWB was very prompt in starting conversation with me to understand my vision for the song. The finished song was great and we used it to make a photo slideshow for my friend. It was the most unique gift I ever gave and I'm very happy with my experience with LWB. Look forward to working again with Ari and good luck to LWB!!!"
