He fills the role of producer with a constant flow of ideas, and enthusiasm, no matter what the genre may be.

it was re-energizing, enlightening, soul healing and extremely beautiful. Gary's Shamanic energy can be felt from the moment it starts to the moment it ends. I would highly recommend this to everyone".

"It was my first time in a recording studio and there was some nerves at first, but Kavie had me at ease and comfortable immediately. He walked me through each step and gave me all the space and time I needed to get the recording I wanted. Can't recommend enough. All round a great experience!"
Daithi Sol , Singer/ Songwriter
“Thank You for such a good session today! I also appreciate very much the initiative you took in making my song sound better and more professional. I like what you did with this particular piece. It sounds exceptional and I like listening to more a distinct jazz personality with my voice and the instrumentation together. This is what I was aiming for. I am impressed with the work we did. This is the type of work I can live with.”
Karen Colville
Singer/Songwriter
“I was quite impressed the way Kavie was so versatile as a player jumping from folk to jazz without skipping a beat. His abilities as a guitar player were definitely apparent to other musicians as I heard them speak so highly of him in whispers as he played songs for so many different performers. In my eyes he is simply the perfect session player. “
Tony Poirer, Burnaby Now Newspaper
“I've been listening to the demo and I really want to say THANKS AGAIN! for your terrific work on the editing, the sound effects, the music, and just plain understanding what I was talking about. The more I listen to the demo, the more I like it! I really appreciate the care that you took to help me with this. I feel really good about what we accomplished!”
Allyson Rowley, Voiceover Artist
“Kent is a very intuitive and professional individual. He completely scored my 15-min short. film as he thoroughly understood the mood of the piece and composed the music in no time. A Great person to work with!”
Juan Parra, Director, Roses Of Redemption
“I've worked with Kavie for 4 years. He is very reliable, if he says he can do something he will. He is an excellent transcriber. If you hum a new melody to him he can write out the music for it immediately. He can also arrange a song by selecting the appropriate chords to go along with the melody. When Kent arranges a melody it really comes alive. Kavie produced a 20 song CD for my trio. The levels are perfect...each instrument or voice is clearly heard. Kavie is a perfectionist when it comes to producing music and it shows in the final result. “
Don Burton, Singer/songwriter/Violinist​
"Kavie is extremely intuitive and knew exactly what I needed. He is very talented, professional, and creative and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone that is looking for top quality work!”
Azfir, Dancer/Actor
“The first thing that impressed me was how easy Kavie made the process. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed... I was shocked at how good I sounded on the CD! Kavie showed great skill in creating a powerful tool for growth which is tailored exactly for me. Great work Kavie! Thank you for all your great effort!”
A Bryce, Personal Coach, Vancouver, Canada
"It was a pleasure to work with Kavie on my station ID’s. His efficiency, professionalism and focus was greatly appreciated.
