    What can I say? Question really is what CAN'T I say! Eric, Eli (spelling? Sorry) and the staff…read morerock. I've known about this studio for many years, but never actually recorded there. Well...My band the Riverdogs needed a great room/studio, to record drums for our new album. Fantastic is all I can say. Clean,comfortable,great board, gear, mics, staff. All pro. If you're looking for the best quality and the best rate, then look here. I've been a studio musician for 35+ years, and this room is as good as the 'high dollar' studios. And no attitude! We will be back for sure, and I will be back for any productions I'm doing when I need a bigger space. Studio A is the big room and well worth it. Anyway! It rocked. Thanks for having us. Cheers!! MD Thank you for using the photo as your cover shot. I'll post another!

    After searching for a good while to find a classic and professionally run studio with a Studer 24…read moretrack reel to reel tape machine and a killer Trident mixing console, I found this place. A real gem! Clear Lake Audio Recording Studios is just what I needed. The vibe, so good as you walk in and see the rooms, and studio A was such a welcome sight to the eyes. The staff is second to none with all the help and input as well. Very professional! I will return and can't wait. The Yamaha grand piano was full of tone and rich with melody and resonance. Eric who was at the helm, really worked hard to bring out the best in me and the music to be recorded. Very patient and great advice as well. This is a rare place to find and I am truly fortunate to have been able to work with this staff. Excellent service!

    I've worked in the music industry for 8 years (record labels, been on tour, music magazines... all…read moreof it), have dated famous musicians, and still maintain my friendships and contacts. This all means that I am VERY jaded to the industry and not much, at this point in life, impresses me. So, when something comes along that brightens even my cynical attitude; then it must be something special. That is precisely what the Alley Studios in North Hollywood is and 'special' is an understatement. The Alley Studios is located on the corner of Lankershim/Ostego in the epicenter of the North Hollywood Arts District. From the exterior, one would this is an abandoned building as it is somewhat run-down and there are no apparent windows anywhere. This unsuspecting facade pulls the wool over everyone's eyes as the Alley Studios is basically a legendary facility dripping with music industry history. So what exactly, IS, the Alley Studios? Imagine an incognito basement owned by the coolest punk rocker you know, marry it with a small bar-type intimate performance stage, melt it with a recording studio and creative space, and bake it to perfection with a lounge. The ending result is Alley Studios. When you first walk in from the front (front and back entrances are available), you will see a room to your left with an intimate stage area available for performances or events that transports you to the coolest bar/concert venue in the 70s/80s. Keep walking down the narrow hall to find a lounge-type room with bar and a lovely garden-esque back patio outdoor space. The Alley Studios also has a basement, recording studios, loft etc; available for artists. Basically, this IS the place for public performances or artists wanting to write and record music or just escape the outside world. Which is PRECISELY what happens in the Alley Studios. This spot has housed literally every single musical legend past and present be it recording or just hanging out. You name it and they have been there. Want some examples? The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Alice Cooper, Roseanne Cash, Sister Sledge, Tom Petty... even to Jack White, Fergie, Chili Peppers, etc and so forth. In fact, the back lounge rooms consist of white brick walls that all the artists have signed. The Alley Studios allows you to photograph these walls but signs proclaim that no touching is allowed. Again, I am RARELY impressed but something about the energy is overwhelmingly amazing which is probably because no one would suspect this small, hidden building to have such amazing history. I mean, did you know about this place? I didn't, and I live two minutes WALKING distance from it! I went to the Alley Studios for an album release performance/party and the staff from the door to the bar was very kind. No one was stuck-up and snooty which is the usual for Hollywood/LA venues and recording studios and even the staff seemed grateful to be involved with the facility. They happily explained the venue history and pointed out the big names on the brick walls. For those interested in the paranormal, the Alley Studios is supposedly haunted with many experiencing spirits or entities. Take that as you will. The Alley Studios is just drop-dead amazing. The history and energy of the place is riveting but with an humble, quiet air. I really hope that the Alley Studios starts to house more public performances so that people can learn about it and experience it for themselves. Apparently there is a book in the works that will be pitched to publishers about the background of the facility. So whether you are a musician seeking a creative/recording space or just a fan that can make it to a performance at Alley Studios; DO check it out!

    I don't even think twice about where I want to record…read more The sound in the studio spaces is clear, detailed, and balanced. Allows me to make fully informed decisions on the music because nothing slips through the cracks. Environment is huge for me when creating. The space is clean and organized. Studio spaces are top of the line and focused. When I need to take a break from what I'm working on, there is a nice outdoor area as well as an indoor room with great seats and vinyls. Food is easily delivered to the studio or you can bring something of your own and keep it in a fridge. There are perfect spots for eating at a large table in a communal room, as well as a table outside. More than anything, the team at Just For The Record is what makes this place stand out. Two shout outs: Denisse Cruz - Manages the studio very well. Helps with scheduling and keeps everything organized. Takes the extra time/energy of keeping track of everyone's schedule out of my hands. Great communication. Couldn't ask for more. Daniel Cullen - Motivated, hard working, constantly growing - inspiring to be around. He is grounded and open. Even brings some great jokes and keeps a good vibe going. VERY talented Engineer. He has a great ear and can sonically manifest whatever sound I'm hearing in my head. He creates a bridge from my mind to the track. Also brings a great energy and patience that allows me to feel comfortable to just throw stuff at the wall to see what sticks. Absolute pleasure to work with. If you are on the fence on what studio to record at, get off the fence and come to Just For The Record.
