I've worked with Andrew Markus for 14+ years now on various projects. He has been my go-to composer no matter the genre of film or television show. The directors we've worked with always thank me for bringing him on board, they love his work, creative input and his work ethic. Andrew has come in at the last minute on a few projects and added a feel only captured with his brilliant score. I highly recommend Andrew, he is collaborative, accomplished and an incredibly creative mind. -

Over the last handful of years, Andrew has composed and scored original soundtracks for us on WEST OF THE CITY, LA BOLITA BLACK N'BLUE & Ramsey . All of which went on to win numerous Awards on the festival circuit, due in no small part to the way Andrew uses MUSIC as an additional character and even more so how that music reflects the culture and language of our stories. For us at HexTC who are committed to expanding the notion of what is "American" by featuring stories that reflect the variety of experiences, backgrounds, races and cultures that make up the American landscape.

I hired Andrew Markus/ 4 Score and 7 Music LLC to do the musical score for my film "Ramsey." I can't imagine how anyone could do a better job than Andrew did. He matched image and music together perfectly and truly captured the mood of my screenplay. “His sound design and mixing are second to none.”

Andrew mixed and created original scores for two of my films that were both wildly different (a comedy pilot and a documentary about homelessness). His music was pitch perfect for enhancing the tone, mood, and emotional impact of each piece. He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish and always brings a vast knowledge of many genres and great energy to everything he works with me on, from ideation to final mix.

I have known Andrew Markus for over two decades and have had the pleasure of working with Andrew on many projects.
Most recently, we distributed/delivered a feature film Chronicle of a Serial Killer.
We found out that the sound of the movie failed QC. After having Andrew review the film, he said he would be able to fix all the errors. With that being, he felt the film had a few places where the score was lacking. He quickly did a sample score, and the filmmaker and I decided we needed Andrew's assistance in that area too. I have to say Andrew not only did a great job fixing the errors but also his scoring of the film, raised the film's quality. He completed it under the deadline so we could deliver the movie to all platforms. - Spero Stamboulis

“Working with Andrew during postproduction for the feature film UNSPOKEN was a delight. The project had encountered some very tough sound issues, the key word being "had". His professionalism and dedication to his craft was an essential addition to our team.

Giving, creative, resourceful, and the consummate sound designer and composer are just some of the words that come to mind when I think of Andrew Markus. With every collaboration what has stuck me most about Andrew, is his insatiable curiosity to understand the story being told. A critical quality to have of any collaborator who is charged to shape nuanced and culturally specific stories like the ones I seek to tell as a filmmaker.

What can I say about Andrew. Without him, our film Black N' Blue would be incomplete. Music is what thrives the soul of a film and that is what he brought and for that we are grateful. Plus it helped that we won best musical score at the "Way Down Film Festival".

I've known Andrew Markus for over 10 years now, Andrew happened to be the composer on my first Feature Film "Chatterbox the Movie". Working with him is a blessing, he's very easy to work with, he listens to my ideas, very collaborative and his work is amazing as a musician and sound mixed engineer. This past year I again collaborated with Andrew for 2 short films directed by Carolynn Cecilia that currently in several film festivals "Woodford County" & "Van Cortlandt". I'm looking forward to working with Andrew in my future projects.

"Having worked with Andrew on multiple projects I can say with total confidence that he is a true and vital collaborator. His passion for his work boils over during editing sessions! Andrew regularly exhibits an openness to being challenged creatively and to taking the more unconventional, yet always rewarding artistic route. I can not recommend him enough, especially to female filmmakers who crave a safe, motivating and fruitful path during the evolution of their films."

Andrew has a gift for storytelling and has mastered how to make it come alive with music, but most importantly I trust him."
"The language of music and sound was a difficult one for me to articulate into words, Andrew magically translated my words into the perfect mix of emotion and melody. He took the time to listen to me and understand the tone of my film "Always". His suggestions were my favorite parts of my film's score, he knew exactly what I wanted to say and how to support it with music.

Andrew was an absolute thrill to work with. From the very beginning he wanted to know what we were thinking and easy to get on the same page. He asked engaging questions to think about other possibilities and after a single round of notes what he came back with was pretty much exactly what we wanted and way, way more. Andrew is one of the best, hands down!
