THE FRONT ROOM

 
One of our more intimate spaces, The Front Room still packs a punch. A medium-sized control room fitted with an SSL desk, an extensive range of outboard gear, plugins and multiple DAWs, plus an isolation booth still big enough for a small band, it’s designed to enable a wider range of music makers to create at our house - perfect for smaller-scale recording, mixing and writing sessions.

Recent inhabitants include Jordan Rakei, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Matt Bellamy, AJ Tracey, Stevie Nicks and even Ryan Gosling.
