Elegant Pop/Rock band Oxford Style used Planck Music to record their song ‘Halcyon Days’ in April. Lovely bunch of musicians and good fun to work with. Looking forward to recording with them again in the future.
Si Moonrock
In March, Planck Music tracked and mixed drums for professional drummer Si Moonrock who was in recording some demonstration videos. Watch Si thumping his way through Nirvana’s classic song ‘Drain You’ on YouTube. Filmed in the Planck Studio. Awesome.
Seneca
Superb London MC Seneca has come in to use Planck Studios alongside music producer Mr McG and fellow MC Nasher a couple of times over the last six months to record vocals for tracks ‘What’s British?’ and ‘This is Epic’. Seneca says: ‘It was great working with the guys at Plank Studios who bring knowledge, professionalism and enthusiasm to the table whilst allowing each artist the freedom to express themselves. We’ll definitely be using the facilities again in the future.’ Listen to the final mix of ‘What’s British?’ here.
