STUDIO
StudioBlak Studios is a professional, industry standard music recording studio located in Putney Bridge, London, right on the river Thames! Featuring the best in both analog and digital tools and a curved main room and vocal booth, StudioBlak Studios is the newest, most exciting music studio in South London! Music is our passion, and we focus on making a big sound in an intimate setting!
Brand new & built from scratch
StudioBlak is the definition of 'purpose built'
It started with a cave-like arch, part of Putney Bridge itself. It has grown into a beautifully arched 2 - room music recording, mixing and mastering studio, capable of handling almost any musical task to industry standard.
The Control room is equipped with multiple studio monitors, musical instruments, outboard and digital compressors & EQ's, as well as social media lighting, 2 screens, a sofa, fridge, microwave and toaster!
The Recording room is a half-arch, acoustically dampened space, perfect for vocal and instrument recording
The whole space is private and sound-proofed, so no interruptions while creating!
Vocal Booth
Although many clients prefer to record in the main room, the industry standard is to use a vocal booth, which of course we provide! Perfect for recording vocals and instruments.
