Los Angeles Recording Studios

[alexanderrobert]

Hi all!

I seem to be unable to find LA based studios that specialize in metal/hard rock recordings. I just finished recording school last year and have been selling pro audio equipment in the meantime. I am looking for somewhere to intern and learn the ropes of actually working in a studio. Anyone work in/own/ or know of a studio that might be willing to give me an opportunity?

I would work in any studio really, but I figure best to go with the genre I know best!

Thanks for any help offered!

PS I can get gear discounts/demos through my job.

Most recording studios don't specialize in anything, unless they're privately owned by a producer who specializes in a certain type of music. These days, especially in LA, studios have to take any work they can just to stay afloat. I doubt you'll find anything that does predominantly metal. I'd say try to find a studio that has really good engineers/ producers coming through. You won't get all metal, but you'll learn how to make records.

"but you'll learn how to make records"

And that is all I really want to do. Kinda will take what I can get.

Logan Mader and his Dirty Icon studio is located in LA.

UnderCity is the only place that comes to mind

Try this, too- You'll have to sift through a ton of shit, but you'll probably get a few leads
