HEAD TECH / BIG CHEESE

With a lifelong passion for music and an affinity for all things technical, this work feels inevitable. Decades of curiosity and study, alongside more formal training in engineering and music performance, bring practical experience and a broad perspective to every project.

Elan Benaroch

TECHNICIAN / SECRET WEAPON

If you’re local to Vancouver there’s a good chance you already know Elan. His deep knowledge of music and gear is built from decades on the scene as an in-demand hardware-based producer, performer, and DJ.  Elan started helping out early last year and his careful and thoughtful approach quickly made him an indispensable part of the shop.  The same ears that make ESB tracks sound so good seem to give him a special touch when listening for subtle problems, or voicing instruments and gear to sound their best.
