"In all seriousness, Ben Bernstein of The Petting Zoo is perhaps the most all around skilled producer/engineer I have had the pleasure to work with." Hyim, KFOG Local Scene Artist
"I recently recorded my debut EP, Step By Step, with Ben Bernstein at the Petting Zoo. He co-produced the EP with me and also played bass on many of the tracks. He also recorded and engineered/mixed it all. I highly recommend him to others whether its recording/mixing or producing. He provides an awesome service." Ian Frankiln, IDC Artist
