Why Metropolis Studios?

Metropolis Studios is Europe’s #1 independent recording studio and home to the best mastering engineers in the world. A high-profile facility from its opening in 1989, a serious number of A listers have recorded, mixed and mastered their legendary material at Metropolis in the three decades since. There are too many to mention, but we’re talking some of the world’s most talented and successful artists!

Best studio engineers

They all come to capture recordings and translate their ideas to connect with fans all over the world. Metropolis’ sole aim is to use its impeccable sonic environment and passionate team of internationally renowned, award-winning audio and mastering engineers to make artists’ music the very best it can possibly be.

And it’s not just the A listers… Metropolis and its team work extensively with up-and-coming and unsigned artists too. In fact, 60% of the 2020 Mercury Prize nominations came out of Metropolis!

Metropolis has always stayed true to its philosophy of striving to create a unique environment for others who share their love of music. With 19 studios, including 2 live rooms, a writing room and screening room, the complex was designed and built to the highest possible specification to deliver audio standards never previously achieved. The long, long list of chart-topping artists and producers who have come through its doors in the last three decades is testimony to the sonic excellence of the state-of-the-art complex as well as the exceptional skill and commitment of the expert audio and mastering engineers on staff.
