UNITY MUSIC STUDIOS, NW LONDON

Unity Music Studios is an amazing place, all you need to record great music: great equipment and recording facilities, big live room, really nice chilled areas, top producers and friendly staff. We had the best time we ever had in a studio, all we needed … we hugely recommend it!” (Steevo – Les Figurines).

Unity Music Studios is a bespoke, cooperative-run, recording studio complex, steeped in industry history and based at the old Battery Studios in Chaplin Road, NW London. Studio Manager Emily McGregor told us, ‘Unity Music Studios is more than just a recording studio. We provide rehearsal space, writing rooms, office space and dry hire production suites (bedroom style studios) either with equipment or without. We also offer a range of special rates including unsigned and album packages and we can supply photographers to capture recording sessions on film, creating great HD live music videos.

‘Our large (540 sq ft), acoustically isolated live room links to a spacious control room which centres around an impressive 1985 72-channel SSL G Series console with G+ automation and total recall. There is a 48 in, 96 out Pro Tools HD5 system running Version 8 software, as well as a Logic 56-channel system, fully integrated with Pro Tools via MADI and capable of running in tandem. This, combined with the fantastic live room acoustics, makes for an outstanding recording and mixing experience.’ Emily adds, ‘We pride ourselves on being able to tailor our services to our clients’ needs, thanks to our team of producers, engineers and technicians who can help get the most out of our clients’ music using their combined total of one hundred years’ experience in the music industry.’

Past clients include The Magic Numbers, Colin Vearncombe, The Like, Dry The River, Sean Genockey and Big Life Management. For more information on Unity Music Studios or to find out how they can help your project, contact them here. (April 2011)
