Elkin Studio Sound

Elkin Studio Sound Full service recording studio with experience in multiple genres from country to metal. Hello and thanks for checking out Elkin Studio Sound.

I have a pretty simple philosophy with how I record. give our clients what they ask for. I believe in supplying the sound that you are looking for without trying to compromise the quality of the recording. This idea also expands into how we run this studio as a business as well. We want people to be happy with the product that they are paying for before they leave, regardless of how much time it t

akes to accomplish this. We are affordable and flexible for what we offer and there are several reasons for this. This studio is ran as a part-time job. It is not our main source of income. What this means for you as a client is that most of the time that we will be able to work is night time, weekends, and the occasional weekday . This also means that it takes a little longer to complete a recording because we are not working on it 8-5 Monday through Friday. At the end of the day we believe that this slower process is a little more painful, but well worth it in the end because it allows us more time to reflect back on the project as we are moving forward and it provides a chance to keep every one from becoming burned out. In the end we do this because we love recording and making music not because we are trying to make a living doing this. Each and everything we record is very personal to us so regardless if you are tracking just one song or a full length album we want it to be the best representation of what you as the artist / client are striving for while being the best quality that we can possible provide. I have been playing music in bands for the past 20 years, for the earliest part I played and toured in End of All (Tribunal Records/Venge Records), I helped track Kill Whitney Dead's 'Inhaling The Breath of a Bullet' (Tribunal Records), PJ Foster, and I currently play in The Seduction.

I just want to say thank you so much to anyone that I have worked with in the past year. It means more to me than I can say. I look at each and every session as something very personal and I consider it to be a privilege to be apart of it. I am starting to book for 2024 so if you are interested or know anyone who maybe interested please let me know.

We can’t thank you all enough. The feedback we have been receiving over the last week for Scoleciphobia has been nothing short of amazing. It makes all the effort worth it. Thank you again!

New family additions and such. I had tried the mark v and thought it was good at many things but failed to be great at anything. Had a mark iii++ and it awesome but didn't keep it. So I thought with the hype surrounding the new mark VII I would give it a shot and see. So far it is probably the best mark I've played.

Remember the movie Tremors? Do you have a healthy fear of giant worms? Maybe you just wish to cruise through the sands of dune with your spice melange? Well if you answered yes to any of these or no it doesn't really matter, I have the band for you.

I got to track these guys back in early summer and it was an absolute blast. Amazing tunes, amazing guitar harmonies, great drums and bass, just a fantastic bad. For fans of Corrosion of Conformity and Wisebloid . Be sure to check out them on their bandcamp and help support them if possible

All things come to an end....

Over the past year I have spent more time with my family then since Charlotte was born thanks to covid. That time has been invaluable. Going forward I honestly am unsure of the state of the studio. I do know if I am currently working on a project with you, I will finish it but I cannot be certain of taking on new projects at this point. As always that may change in the future but as of now it seems like the studio will either be closed or severally restricted from this point forward. I felt I should make a post about it since I know a lot of people have messaged me and I have been slow on communication. If you have any questions or want to ask about a session please feel free to reach out as always. Thanks
