Unique cabin recording studio based in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Cheshire.
The most affordable recording studio in Manchester. Unbeatable prices and quality.
BIO
​
The most important thing when working on your music is freedom. Freedom to be creative, be spontaneous and be yourself. This doesn’t happen as much as it should in recording studios, where you’d usually just do your allotted hours and then leave. That's on top of possibly feeling overwhelmed by a big studio with a strict schedule. Well it works differently here.
​
SHED studios provide a relaxed environment at unbelievably low prices (from £18 p/h). Our songs have been played around the world, including being playlisted on big stations like BBC Radio, RTÉ Radio (the biggest station in Ireland) and many more. What worked for one singer might not work for another. No one person is the same and so we believe in bespoke ways of doing the whole recording process. You may just want to record a cover song, write a song from scratch or record an acoustic video. Some people book for just 1 hour, some for 1 week - whatever works best for you and YOUR creativity! There are no limits here. We even offer a remote online recording service.
​
We create an environment where ‘mistakes' are fine (and sometimes better!) This isn’t about doing your few hours and leaving. We believe in working alongside musicians and so, if wanted, we can build the songs together. Chipping in ideas etc along the way. That said, many people love to come even just for an acoustic video, due to the rustic and unique decor. Having worked as a music director/session musician on massive pop tours (including stadium shows in Japan, arena's in the UK etc), producer kommy knows what it takes for a song to pop.
​
If you have a lack of ideas or want direction for your music...If you want an affordable but unique live recording. Even if you just want your tune mixed...get in touch and get help taking your song from an idea to a radio ready hit!
