Tell us a bit about the history of your studio
We’ve seen some of the best international and local artists pass through the doors, including Justin Bieber, Flume, Wu-Tang Clan, and Paul Kelly. They’ve all been really important and great to have through the studio, but the vibe, spirit and character of the studio is fuelled by the local independent artists in the jazz, indie, pop and alternative scene who make up the depth of history for the studio.
What equipment do you have at your studio?
We’re an SSL Duality and Augspurger Monitors studio. We have some really special microphones from Telefunken, Royer, Coles, DPA, a heap of outboard from Retro, Tube-Tech, Chandler, Neve and TC Electronic.
Tell us about the record you’re most proud to have worked on?
The Justin Bieber ‘Love Yourself’ track was pretty special for my business as the vocal was recorded in my space and it brought a lot of new work to the studio, but there are three records that are equally important to me at the moment. My band, Melody Jones, are just about to put out a new album, I’ve just finished a jazz record for Harriett Allcroft, and then the EP that gets mixed across this month is for So Fox, a Melbourne indie pop duo.
Why should musicians choose to record at your studio?
I really fucking care that musicians get a record they are happy to play to other people, one that they are proud of and that they had a great time making.
