Phenominal. After doing lots of research, a friend of mine recommended this studio and I'm so glad…read morewe decided to record here. We recorded 5 songs recently and everyone in our entire band was extremely happy with the results. We worked with Benny who is a very skilled engineer. He's very quick with Pro Tools and he works very efficiently. He is able to achieve great results in a short amount of time. He has amazing 'ears' and he can hear every little detail of every sound. He doesn't need to spend a lot of time working on microphone placement or other important details like that, he seems to just know what works and he's able to get a great sound pretty much instantaneously. He's very receptive to the artist's input and ideas. He's very laid back, respectful and easy to work with... and for a band of all women, this is important! We all felt very comfortable. His assistant Sam was very helpful and skilled as well. I learned a lot from just watching them work. The studio itself is very nice as well. The rooms are well-treated acoustically and there's a ton of high quality outboard gear available. The prices are reasonable and definitely worth the level of quality.

The engineers, interns, and crew are top notch; not to mention the comfort, quiet, and quality of the studios and gear. You can even get real with plate reverb.

Plus the biz side of things is no BS. They really take care of you, and you get more than your bang for the buck. Just be respectful of the space and they'll do you right.

I love having a place to play drums without having to own a set at home. I wish I had known a long…read moretime ago that there is a place where you can rent a drumset for an hour or two. I used Studio 52 this summer to practice drumming in preparation for playing a song with our wedding band, and I enjoyed it so much I'm going to keep coming back every month or two to play. The drumset is relatively basic but in great condition. Spots book up fast, so make sure to lock in your hour a few days in advance.

I reached out to Blink Music in March 2023, as I was interested in recording in their studio…read more Unfortunately, I found their team to be very unprofessional. The associate I communicated with over e-mail was a poor communicator and failed to follow up after I inquired. It was only after I called and talked to Tim that I was able to setup a meeting. I brushed that off, however, as a new employee or them simply having a bad day. To my surprise, Tim, the founder, was even more unprofessional. Shortly after meeting him in the studio, Tim began spouting conspiracy theories about vaccines and global politics. I felt very uncomfortable but focused my efforts on being polite. Tim mentioned that his marketing team had warned him about sharing these conspiracies, but he persisted nonetheless. I was ready to setup a recording session but was turned off by Tim's unprofessional demeanour. Even worse, Tim e-mailed several paragraphs of conspiracy theories at 1 AM several days after we met. Unless you are willing to endure Tim's alarming political views, I would suggest looking elsewhere for your recording needs.

Bristol Studios is the Real Deal…read more As an independent artist, I approach everything with a healthy dose of skepticism--especially when it comes to anything that claims to be "transformative." But time and again, Bristol Studios has exceeded my expectations and earned my trust. I originally discovered Bristol when my vocal coach used their rehearsal rooms. I noticed they offered sound engineering classes and decided to give them a try. The curriculum is somewhat fluid, which might not work for everyone, but for me, it's been a gift. I'm currently taking ongoing classes with Chris Billias--an exceptionally talented working musician with an incredible ear. We work directly on my original songs, diving into everything from musicality and rhythm to arrangement, mixing, and mastering. The real-world insights and hands-on learning have been invaluable to my growth as an artist. I've also taken two workshops led by Ric Poulin, the founder. The Performance Workshop was, in a word, transformative. I was skeptical--who wouldn't be with a name like that? But it truly changed the direction of my artistic path. More recently, I completed the Songwriting Workshop, which gave me practical, repeatable tools to unlock creativity and structure my songwriting process. Ric's deep experience in the music industry, combined with his passion and storytelling, makes his teaching not only informative but inspiring. As someone actively writing, producing, and releasing original music, I credit Bristol Studios with helping me level up both creatively and technically. If you're serious about your craft--whether you're just starting out or already in motion--Bristol is a rare place that meets you where you are and helps you rise higher.
