The TeAM
Nick
MUSIC PRODUCER / ENGINEER / SONGWRITER
Nick has been involved in music & sound for 40 years, both as a musician, songwriter, engineer & producer as well as sound designer & composer for theatre & live arts across the world.
He brings a wealth of experience (as well as support and guidance if needed) to every session – fuelled by a love of music, the creative process and years of making & listening to music in many different genres.
He will be the engineer and/or producer for your session.
CLAIRE
ADMINISTRATOR
Claire will often be the first point of contact for any studio enquiries, and deals with all bookings and administration.
She is a singer in her own right, after spending many years working in London’s West End and being a French teacher.
She is also well known by studio regulars for her fine coffee making (and even with biscuits if you’re lucky!)
LUNA
STUDIO DOG
Loved by many of the studio regulars, Luna loves to welcome dog-friendly artists (but can be kept away for non-dog people) and has even been known to ‘play’ the studio piano on command (though she’s yet to make it onto a track!)
She’s very friendly and great at reminding Nick that he needs to take a break every now and again!
The STUDIO
Though only a relatively small studio, 3507 is perfect for singers, singer-songwriters, small bands and voice artists to create great work.
The studio comprises a comfortable control room, a live/booth room as well as conservatory ‘chill’ area (with kitchen & toilet facilities)
It’s situated in a safe residential area with on-street parking.

VIDEO
- We have 3 fixed cameras in the studio (2 in the booth and 1 in the control room) along wih a video switcher capable of capturing raw footage or live vision mixing for on-the-fly content creation. Please let us know in advance if you’d like to use this facility.
Use of all gear & instruments are included on the session price (there is a £20 supplement if you want us to set the studio drum kit up prior to your session so it doesn’t take up valuable creative time)
