REMOTE SESSIONS
STUDIO & GEAR
THE ROOM
All the drum tracks for my clients get recorded in my own purpose built studio. I put a lot of sweat into this room to really make it the best it could be and it turned out better than I ever imagined. It is heavily acoustically treated and has a live and a dead end to accommodate for different drum sounds.
It is equipped with state of the art music equipment:
