Velour Underground Studios

In 2016 he began training and working with Mass Giorgini at Sonic Iguana Studios, also in Lafayette, IN, and continues to produce and engineer records there.

A studio offering affordable recording, mixing and mastering services for musical acts and podcasts, as well as private music lessons and music media transfer services. Greg Simpson has been engineering and producing records since the mid 1990s, starting by making 4 track and 8 track recordings together with his bandmates and releasing cassettes, then graduating to early digital recording software

like Cakewalk and Fruity Loops, cutting his teeth for real on Garageband and Logic, and then finally learning pro gear like Ableton Live, Sonar, Protools and the Mackie HDR-24. Besides recording his own bands at home, Greg picked up tips being recorded as a drummer, guitarist and keyboardist with his various bands from the early 2000s to the current day, always observing soaking in things about mic placement, hardware and software and mixing techniques, and getting involved in these processes alongside these producers at studios all over the Midwest. Velour Underground Studios had been recording his own bands (Outdoor Velour, The Dick Cheney That Ate Cheböygan, Dopplepopolis and various side projects and weird cover bands), but he finally opening to up to the public in January of 2016 when he realized how good his drum recordings--one of the most difficult instruments to track and mix well--were turning out on his 2016 and 2017 recordings. Due to years of observation, assisting with recordings and hashing it out with trial and error and his own research, boosted tenfold by training with Giorgini at Sonic Iguana, Greg has established and succeeded in achieving a recording and producing style that is typically very difficult to pull off in a home setting. In order to not compete with his main gig at Sonic Iguana, bands and solo artists benefit from Greg keeping the prices incredibly low and aimed at bands starting out with a demo or a first EP or LP, offering budget hourly rates and sliding scale package deals for bands on a shoestring budget.

Our Story

Greg Simpson has been engineering and producing records since the mid 1990s, starting by making 4 track and 8 track recordings together with his bandmates and releasing cassettes, then graduating to early digital recording software like Cakewalk and Fruity Loops, cutting his teeth for real on Garageband and Logic, and then finally learning pro gear like Ableton Live, Sonar, Protools and the Mackie HDR-24. Besides recording his own bands at home, Greg picked up tips being recorded as a drummer, guitarist and keyboardist with his various bands from the early 2000s to the current day, always observing and soaking in things about mic placement, hardware and software and mixing techniques, and getting involved in these processes alongside these producers at studios all over the Midwest. In 2016 he began training and working with Mass Giorgini at Sonic Iguana Studios, also in Lafayette, IN, and continues to produce and engineer records there. Velour Underground Studios had been recording his own bands (Outdoor Velour, The Dick Cheney That Ate Cheböygan, Dopplepopolis and various side projects and weird cover bands), finally opening up to the public in January of 2016 when he realized how good his drum recordings were turning out on his 2016 and 2017 recordings. The drum kit is notoriously one of the most difficult instruments to track and mix well, and his drum tracks were sounding pro, so the studio (and Greg as a producer) finally deserved to help others make records. Due to years of observation, assisting with recordings and hashing it out with trial and error and his own research, boosted tenfold by training with Giorgini at Sonic Iguana, Greg has established and succeeded in achieving a recording and producing style that is usually very difficult to pull off in a small studio setting. In order to not compete with his big-time higher-budget projects at Sonic Iguana, Greg and VU focus on offering quick, affordable recordings aimed at local bands starting out with a first single, EP or LP, offering budget hourly rates and sliding scale package deals for bands on a shoestring budget.
