Warm light, proper monitoring, a dedicated vocal booth and enough character to make the room feel like somewhere work matters.

Your first session.
You don’t need to have done this before. Bring your ideas — we’ll help you get comfortable and find your sound.
What should I bring?
Bring your lyrics, your beat or backing track, and a couple of songs you like the sound of. If you need help with production or are still working out your ideas, talk to us before booking.
What happens in the session?
We’ll chat about your music and get you comfortable with the setup. Your engineer will guide you through recording and listen back with you. There’s room to try things, make mistakes and go again.
What will I leave with?
We’ll agree a realistic aim for your session. Vocal recording bookings include recording, mixing and mastering within the booked time. If your track needs more work before release, we’ll explain the next steps.
