This place is really special. I've attended shows, played shows, and recorded twice now at the…read moreWillyMag and never had a bad time. If you have the opportunity to go, do not miss it. Owners Tessa and Mark are skilled, friendly, and creating a very unique atmosphere there. Recording: I've had the opportunity to record in several studios across the Midwest, and WillyMag is head and shoulders above the rest. It is an all-analog studio. They do not even dump the analog sounds to digital to mix - one of the only (maybe the only??) places in the country who do not mix digitally. This anachronistic and highly-technical method seems a bit intimidating to a non-gearhead musician like myself, but Tessa and Mark explain things in a patient and not condescending manner when you ask questions. Their equipment is top of the line from cables all the way up to the 7' reverb plate. As recording engineers, Tessa and Mark are very good at listening to what you say you want and helping create that sound. Furthermore, the pricing is reasonable and they work with you to find a way to make it happen. Attending Shows: Always a low price, thoughtfully curated line-ups, excellent sound quality, an intimate setting. Yes, it gets a bit hot in the summer, but there is free water. It is a substance-free area, so family friendly, and the shows start and end early. It fills a very important niche in the Madison music scene with those parameters, and I have seen some excellent shows there. Playing Shows: Extremely low key, one of the more enjoyable places to play in town. It is a small stage, so you're right next to the audience, which tends to result in repartee with the crowd and more stripped-down performances. Tessa is clear and efficient when it comes to explaining set times and facilitating gear sharing to make shows move quickly.

A band I occasionally rehearse with rents this space. It is beautiful and well equipped. The…read moresound stage is big and clean enough to film a music video. They have excellent backline for guitar and bass. I am not sure if the drums belong to the studio or the drummer. When I have interacted with the staff, they have been friendly and helpful. Parking is ample. Make sure someone knows to let you in after hours, as the doors lock from the outside. I've never been the one to rent the space myself but I believe the rates are reasonable. I will keep them in mind for my own uses.

Derek (the owner) is a genuine music lover, a versatile, experienced musician as well as an incredible teacher. If there is a more laid-back, low-pressure way to buy an instrument I haven't seen it and it's clear that he is more interested in finding the right "fit" than pushing product. If you are an experienced musician looking for just the right instrument or a newcomer looking to learn, definitely check-out Gemini. If you are not local to the shop it is worth the trip, and they even offer remote lessons if you can't make it there in person.
