Bit of fun having BBCs Lee Blakeman in the studio and Midlands choir of the year ‘Cor Bach’ Choir recording, other things, a new jingle for the breakfast show! Thanks to Lee and the show for their kind words 🖤

As I approach the 2 year anniversary of the studio, scrolling back through my work it’s mad to think that I’ve mixed over 140 tracks since opening! There’s nothing like sheer ‘reps’ to improve and running the studio has certainly given me reps! Constantly improving, always striving to be better, diligently learning and loving making music 🖤

Absolute pleasure to record some of the best brass players I know in their fantastic quartet… ribbon mics out for some beautiful warm tones, the Fearn VT2 on room duties and ISA 428 having its time to shine, it’s variable impedance and largely neutral character working perfectly in this context 🖤

Not the most natural at talking to camera but just wanted to say a huge thank you and Merry Christmas! 🖤
‘Contemporary Nightmare’ back in for some overdubs! 🖤
Good fun with these guys ‘Contemporary Nightmare’! Young new band with some great tunes! Don’t forget recording packages are available on our webstore if you’re looking for an unusual Christmas present for someone musical! 🖤

Continuing with the slightly random sessions, another unusual and unexpected afternoon! Not a genre I’m familiar with but fun never the less… Bash recording a brief promo for his performance in Dubai and vocals on one of his original songs! …and the first time I’ve ever seen or heard a harmonium in person!
Got an unusual musical endeavour!? Get in touch! 🖤 #recordingstudio #stokemusicscene #stokeontrent #indianmusic #harmonium #juggymusicals
Never gets any easier being interviewed… as soon as someone points a camera in my direction I forget how to be human! A pleasure to be invited to Cross Rhythms radio never the less to talk about the Studio and gospel artist @officialbiolayakubu 🖤

Great to have Thunderous Jones back n the studio working on their latest EP. Finished another audio / video project for Moorpark school (that unfortunately I can’t share with you but came out great!) and now working on a really fun project for the brilliantly creative Dread Lagoon , keep you’re eyes out for this one! 👀🖤
Not the most exciting footage but thoroughly enjoyed a bit of live work at the @thebackyardstoke and looking forward to the next one at the end of the month! @averagejoemusicltd , @lucidwatersmusic and @wocays1 were all absolutely superb. Support local original music and get down to the Backyard, The Sugarmill, The Underground or where ever you can… so much creativity in our city 🖤

E-bow action with Calum Gregory!
Just a little sneak preview… Had fun creating some organic pads and little melodic moments on a project with singer songwriter Calum Gregory… e-bow with my trusty Gibson 58 RI 🖤
Busy times but It’s been an absolute joy being in the studio over the last few weeks with some incredible projects on the go. Today we had ethereal vibes with a lovely composition from Lucas Elliott coming together nicely 🖤 …something a little different, enjoy the extract!
Yesterday was another video shoot for JukeJam on a more long term project that I can’t wait to share with you.
More very soon.
🖤
Getting great tones from the lovely Flea 47 on a more sparse singer songwriter session today, such a beautiful sounding mic… and the bean can mic makes another appearance for some lofi vocals! 🖤 …got a project in mind? Get in touch 😊

Come on maneki-neko either be in time or wildly out of time, you’re putting me off my session! …good luck my arse! 😂 #studiolife #recordingstudio #drumtracking #stokerockscene #stokemusicscene
Stylish stand for the trusty Sennheiser HD600s!
Many thanks to my brother Joe for this stylish stand for my HD600s, love it! Anyone else use Sonarworks to flatten their reference headphones? Works great for me. Also curious about the Slate VSX thing 🤔

Happy St Patrick’s Day! …minus the Guinness, we’re working! 🍀🖤
Absolutely loving our new BlackMagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K! Performed flawlessly on a location shoot last weekend, look forward to using it in the live room for some more performance videos with the Ronin RS2 and Sigma Art lenses, such a great image 🖤
It’s been a crazy busy couple of months, loads of news to come, some incredible recording sessions and performances to share, studio audio gear improvements and more, keep you posted 😊🖤
As always, if you have a project in mind don’t hesitate to get in touch!

There are hundreds of ways of getting a lofi vocal sound… had a lot of fun with one of our new bean can mics on a singer/songwriter session the other day… one less plug-in come mix time is always a good thing 🖤😊

An absolute pleasure to run sound for the The Sax Shack Big Band last night. An absolutely phenomenal group of musicians and a lot of fun to mix! 🖤
