PRESS REVIEWS
"Steve delivers amazing tones and home run performances. He made me
like my job again."
— Jeff Juliano, Grammy Award-winning Mix Engineer (John Mayer, Jason Mraz, Dave Matthews Band)
"Michael Nappi writes one heck of a song – and performs it just as well. The production on Here We Go Again is fantastic and most definitely has major label finish. "7:26" is already reacting with our listeners after just a few weeks on the air. It easily keeps company with the rest of our mix and is chock full of hooks and memorable melodies. We're excited that a local guy has given us a song that we wouldn’t be at all surprised to hear on one of the big NYC stations soon – in fact, we’re anticipating it."
— Chris Herrmann, Program Director, 107.1 The Peak/WXPK-FM New York
"Steve has become an experienced high quality producer, songwriter, engineer, and musician. He owns and operates Goodnight Studios in New York where he works with top-notch bands and cutting edge artists. I hope to work with him on projects again soon."
— Dave Howard, Solo Artist, Composer, Arranger, Educator (Berklee College of Music)
"Michael Nappi's debut album, Here We Go Again, is of the same caliber as a major label release. The songwriting and production are excellent. Major labels should be looking at him."
— Mike Mullaney, Music Director, Mix 98.5/WBMX-FM Boston
"Listening to the high-gloss, übercatchy, melodic rock & roll of Michael Nappi's debut release, Here We Go Again, it's no stretch whatsoever to imagine that fans of Matchbox 20, Five For Fighting and Train will fall head over heels for this New Yorker. "7:26" and "Miserable" are the tour de forces on an album stuffed with strong songs."
— Jim Nelson, A Taste Of Triple A
"Steve is a one-man musical machine who can pump out great guitar tracks when you need them yesterday! He has a great knack for songwriting and understands the artist's point of view as well as the producer's vision. His studio is very versatile and can accommodate many musical situations, styles, and projects."
— Amy Ward
"Steve's pop/rock sensibility makes him a phenomenal songwriter and his sonic sensibility, an extraordinary producer and engineer."
— Michael Nappi
"Steve Buonanotte is a true professional. He is a brilliant talent with a solid work ethic built on integrity, dependability, and attention to detail. I would hire Steve again and again."
— Lisa Vitello, West Avenue Records, LLC
"Steve is the type of producer that pays attention to the details that make a song special. He truly tries to capture what the artist is going for while putting his own twist on it. He's an all around pleasure to make music with. (He makes a damn good cup of coffee too!)"
— Rich Molfetta, Temple Hill
