Music Recording
In the moment
Less is more. When recording, we focus on clean, clear, and pure techniques to deliver a strong and beautiful sound, in order to replicate how we truly hear in a live setting.
Recording is about capturing a sonic moment. Whether a live concert or a commercial session, the recording process always happens in real time. No amount of technology or manipulation can change the power of an “in the moment” performance. This is the core philosophy that Digital Island Studios brings to every situation.
Although we have decades of production experience, we never bring a preconceived notion of what your project is going to sound like; we approach every recording as an artistic collaboration. The recording process is about trust – trust in the engineer to capture your sound as beautifully and accurately as possible, and trust in the producer’s ears and ability to sense whether to push you or back off and move on. All of our interactions are to help you achieve your optimal performance.
