I want to remove this line: "His unique gift to create emotional melodies and craft lush and soothing orchestral soundscapes has won him many fans" Its clearly not NPOV and has no sources. Edit to include signature Craven99 (talk) 13:35, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In her new memoir, Sounds Like Titanic, Jessica Chiccehitto Hindman alleges that many of the performances by the Tim Janis ensemble that she participated in in the early 2000s were actually pre-recorded music that they were pretending to play.^[1][2] She does not specifically name Janis in the book, referring to him as "The Composer," but it's not difficult to figure out who she's referring to, since that was who she was working for at the time. Seems significant.Trinite (talk) 21:42, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed; this whole article reads like a PR puff piece for him. Respected sources are beginning to cover this, too ^[3]. I would suggest that at the very least, this needs to be stripped of the PR jargon and the discography cleaned up. Smith(talk)

Also agreed. Even the one-sentence summary of the Hindman allegations we have is a bit underwhelming, since it doesn't mention the principal thrust of them: that his live performances were nothing of the sort. Tom Yates (talk) 10:07, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
