"Like any truly impressive piece of art, Gooding's music has the rare ability to grab one's attention right away while still having enough substance to reveal more and more interesting layers of itself the more it is experienced. Now with K2, I have easy access to a fantastic catalog of eclectic, thoughtfully composed tracks for pretty much anything. This is how it should be."

"I've known and worked with Gooding for several years now. I think
what strikes me most about his music is that whatever he creates;
incredible songs with his band, adroitly crafted tracks for his solo
work or massive library cues, Gooding always writes from his heart
and soul. Nothing is ever generic or 'cranked out.' Everything he
does has incredible care and authenticity to it. Not everyone can be
so engaged in such diverse work and be so 'Good' at it. Gooding is
one of my absolute favs as a composer and a person."
