I work for Cartel Studios and we offer low cost recording deals, rehearsal facilities and private tuition in person or by Skype. We are looking for bands who would like to record their single, EP or album in the studio. The studio is owned by Criminal Records UK, who also arrange live concerts and music industry networking events through the bookings arm, Criminal Booking Agency - so feel free to get in touch for all of those things.
Our producers have worked with a large number of high profile acts including Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, Mark Ronson (Level 42), James Blunt, Das Pop, The Magic Numbers, Florence and The Machine, Keane, Graham Coxon, Hard Fi, Boy Kill Boy, The Rakes, Lucky Soul, The Rocks, Maximo Park,Bluetones, Mark Morrison, Do Me Bad Things, KT Tunstal, Infadels, The Young Knives, Towers Of London, The Yardbirds, Antony and The Johnsons, TheInfadels, Nate James, Cyndi Lauper, Tricky (from Massive Attack), The Pretty Things, Fat Boy Slim and many many more.
We are based in West London, but also have accommodation for bands to come and stay whilst cutting a record.
