Jessica Solce - filmmaker/directorJames Lindsay’s compositions breathed electricity into No Control. Every part of the way from brainstorming to final cuts was a smooth, collaborative, and creative process.

Debbie Wright - filmmaker/directorJames is one of the most gifted and brilliant people with whom I have had the pleasure to work. The score that James created for my last film stands alone as its own story separate from the film, and I could literally just listen to the score, close my eyes and disappear into an amazing adventure.

Eduardo Vilchez - producerJames has an inherent talent for the subtleties of film composing. He understands the collaborative process and has not only presented me with what I was looking for, but he somehow managed to look beyond my direction and requests, to the heart and soul of the project.

Xavier Garcia - filmmaker/directorIt was an honor to work with James Lindsay on a Blood Thrones’ soundtrack. His music exposed the hidden themes written into the film’s unspoken messages. His musical design for the film elevated the story.
