In the studio with The Album Leaf
“… it starts with sound… experimenting with sound… it truly gets me inspired… it’s what I react to…”
Studios
Since 2014, our select artists have been sharing their studio setup, working environment, favourite hardware, the process of composition and much more... Look inside!!!
In the studio with John Hayes
“… I like the idea of creating a sonic bed to lie down in, especially in the early stages of a track…”
In the studio with Secret of Elements
“… I froze a bell strike and extended it for hours [and] noticed overtones, hidden sub-tones, and even entire harmonies within that single strike…”
In the studio with Grandbrothers
“… we restricted ourselves to the grand piano as a source [and] the effects are opening up new prospects to transform the sound…”
In the studio with Last Days
“… [I like] introducing new elements to a sample, giving it a whole new character and making it sound old and tired or completely removed from what it originally was…”
In the studio with Maxy Dutcher
“… I like to work quickly and destructively […] yielding beautiful and unexpected results with a focus on these happy accidents…”
In the studio with µ‑Ziq
“… I used to lust after the synthesisers and samplers I read about in magazines, but now everything that comes bundled with Logic seems to be more than enough…”
In the studio with Jung Jaeil
“… a good instrument gives you such deep inspiration and can make you tremble with just one note…”
In the studio with Sergio Díaz De Rojas
“… when I start working on an album, I don’t stop until it is ready… it is the only thing I think about…”
In the studio with Franck Vigroux
“… sounds, images, and movements are all sources of inspiration […] I work like a sculptor, but with sounds, lights and objects…”
In the studio with Sinemis
“… I really enjoy working with organic sources of audio, finding or recording sounds, which I then start heavily processing in unusual ways…”
