the studio


Since 2012, The Aviary Recording Studio has been working on making great sounding records.

To celebrate our 10th Birthday last year, we launched The Film Division, our very own in-house filming service. It has been so successful, we are going to continue to offer the same live recording and filming packages into 2024, along with new and exciting services, such as film clips, live gig and festival filming, behind the scenes footage, and promotional videos.

As of November 2023, we are changing things up at The Aviary, and scaling down the space we dedicate to the recording studio. This will allow us to expand the in-house community and open two more production rooms, whilst retaining the magical live room for music and film making.

We've reimagined our music creation process. Transitioning from a larger operation to a focused haven, where every element is designed to nurture your creativity and elevate your musical journey. Our mission is simple: to provide you with the perfect environment for bringing your artistic vision to life.

Imagine a sanctuary where inspiration flows freely, where every note, lyric, and melody finds its place. Our newly streamlined studio is dedicated to the art of songwriting, recording, and production. By scaling down our operation, we've magnified our commitment to quality and creativity, ensuring that your music takes center stage.

Whether you're a solo artist, a band, or a songwriter, our studio is your canvas. Our recording and production expertise ensure that every nuance of your performance is captured with pristine precision, while our state-of-the-art equipment brings your sonic dreams to life.

Our intentionally intimate recording space is designed to cultivate focus and inspiration. No distractions, just you and your music. This environment allows us to provide personalised attention to each project, guaranteeing that your unique sound is preserved and enhanced throughout the production process.

Collaboration is at the heart of music. Our team of seasoned professionals is dedicated to partnering with you every step of the way. From refining song structures to capturing the perfect vocal take, we're here to support your creative journey and turn your aspirations into reality.
