A recording should not just be a soundbite of what has happened... it should be a rewarding experience for all the hard work and preparation that came before it. If the artist feels relaxed and comfortable in a familiar surrounding, well prepared and confident in their ability...that's when the magic happens in a recording!

- Mobile recording services on location anywhere in the UK
- Post production & preperation of a Master CD (to red book standards)
- Clients are invited (though not required) to be present during the mixing and mastering phases.
- Solo vocals recorded over backing tracks. These will be sensitively mixed and mastered to sound like they were recorded as one, in the same room!
- If you would rather record in an alternative location, we can suggest/source some suitable local venues with a good quality piano! Andrew has a studio at Invicta Grammar School that can be used for larger groups, Bands or Duo's where a good quality piano is essential.
- Workshops on Recording methods and Techniques, to advanced music students that need studio experience. Andrew coaches in understanding the pitfalls and what to request from the engineer/producer in order to have a greater control over the final result. The students leave with a professional demo track that they have been instrumental in producing.
- Schools have the opportunity to record up to 20 tracks throughout the year to produce a disc of the very best music the school has to offer. Alternatively, Andrew can record individual groups to present the school with single MP3's to add to their website.
