The project is now available on sites like Tubi (https://link.tubi.tv/evpZji8i5Mb) and you can see for yourself how amazing the location actually is. In fact, I don't even think our film does it any justice. If you're looking for a spacious warehouse where you can get loud and have fun with your passion projects, this is the place to go!

Really cool studio - fully equipped with tons of crazy gear - awesome outboard, every instrument…read moreyou could ever need. So many different mics - a lot of vintage ones too. Laid down vocals and 12-string guitar for a folky track. Danny B. the engineer I worked with was incredible - really flexible and meticulous with understanding my vision and making it happen. Did a three-mic setup for the guitar - and it sounds INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend for recording anything from simple folky acoustic all the way up to full band and everywhere in between. This place is straight up legit and captured my music in a way I'm not sure other studios could have. Again highly recommend working with Danny if you can. Prices are also pretty reasonable - will def be recording more here when I get the chance.

He's a fun and professional to collaborate with, and I'm beyond happy with how my song sounds as a finished product. I've been producing on Ableton for a few years, and I was specifically looking to work with someone in studio to learn and improve my mixes in general. I spent a few hours with Chris in his Oakland studio and learned so much during that time. It was one of the most informative sessions I've had since I started making music! Chris shared numerous different techniques and workflow tips with me while making suggestions and helping refine my track. It's clear that he's an expert in Ableton, but is also generous in sharing his knowledge. After our in-person session, we collaborated for another week or so via phone/e-mail through the mastering process. Throughout this process, he was thorough, patient, and gave invaluable feedback and recommendations - all while communicating effectively. Something I really appreciate about working with Chris is that he makes suggestions and gives honest feedback, but also makes sure that he respects the original vision for what the track should sound like. He makes suggestions but never pushes or makes it feel like you're straying or altering your original track. I look forward to working with Chris again! Highly recommend Mothership Studio.

I just searched "music studio near me" on Google and this place popped up. I took a chance with them and it's probably the best decision I've made this year. I've gotten more done In the past 3 months than I have in the last 4 years. I've recorded 4 hip hop EPs and working on an album as we speak and it's all A grade quality work. Dj BigVince and Kadin are super talented engineers who specialize in mixing and mastering. They work their magic to make tracks sound professional and polished. I was impressed with their attention to detail and high level expertise. The founder, Chris Cash, is the real deal. He's a multi-talented artist who can sing, rap, engineer, and make beats. His passion and dedication to music is so apparent everytime I work with him. Whether you need a few songs or a full project, Chris and his team have you covered. Just so you have an idea of Jungle Life Studio services, they offer: recording, music production, songwriting, mixing and mastering, live DJ services, and video recording/editing. Literally a one stop shop!

Jacob truly went above and beyond, helping us create a record that we are really proud of. We were nervous to take on our first studio project, but ModernTone gave us the support we needed to evolve our songs past what we had hoped for. Jacob wasn't just an engineer for us, he shared an expert creative perspective that influenced some of our most exciting ideas. From our experience with major revisions in pre-production to granular adjustments in the final mix, ModernTone was clearly the right choice for our record. We had agency when we wanted it, and support where it mattered most. Not to mention the access to powerful equipment for a highly customizable and polished sound. Any Bay Area artist or band looking to see how their original songs can grow in a professional environment should definitely check out ModernTone!!

I just had my very first vocal lesson ever with Briget, and in just one hour, I learned more than I thought possible.

Briget brings a warm, intuitive energy and truly listens, not just to your voice, but to you. I'm so excited for what's ahead and cannot recommend her highly enough!

I shoot video for a living I have 100 terabytes of data audio files are very small compared to 4K-8K footage I also RJ a commercial recording studio and I still have files for artist who have went to prison or lost touch 15 years later also other artist have passed away and I'm still able to give their kids and family files all these years later! Imagine if they erased all the famous artist sessions because you have so many clients this would make me not want to use the studio if was a artist and also your engineer did not disclose this I had no hard drive at the time and did not expect the engineer to quit or be fired

I was recommended this studio by someone I respect. At first, it was professional, I was happy to…read morefind a place in the East Bay that I could record. I usually drive to San Jose or San Rafael. I paid my deposit and scheduled a 3 hour session. My first appointment, my engineer was a no show, with no notification. When I arrived, nobody answered my texts, calls or emails. I have 2 kids at home and pleaded with my husband to watch the kids for that time. I waited an hour. Nothing. They blamed it on the fire on the Carquinez bridge, which I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND, BUT 2 people knew and none bothered to notify me or pick up my calls/texts. The next day, they said they'd make it right. I rescheduled the appt 2 weeks for 10-2 (I asked TWICE for an extra hour for the inconvenience) and received 2 confirmation texts. I text at 9:30am to get my engineer's contact details. You won't believe, I got a text saying "I think the engineer rescheduled your session from 2-6, will that work for you?" I literally respond with... "was someone going to notify me? I'm leaving now so lmk if I should stay home." I NEVER get a text back! I call and text, NOTHING. 30 minutes later, I arrive at the studio and get a hold of the engineer. He's in Fairfield and will arrive at 11. He arrives at 11:15/11:20. He's cool and apologizes. I have somewhere to be at 3, so I leave at 2:30 and ask him to finish editing the last track. He emails me all the stems and mixes, but accidentally muted 2 WORDS at one section of the song. I email him to unmute the vocals and change something he accidentally duplicated twice. He tells me... he'll have to charge me an HOUR, when I know the change itself would take, MAXIMUM 5 minutes + exporting... I tell him I think it should be included since I would've caught that if we started on time. I mean, I didn't ask him to mute my vocals. I check in 3x that week to both folks and guess what??? NO ANSWER. At that point I'm thinking, I I've ever been more disrespected or dealt with this lack of communication and unprofessionallism EVER! Not by a business, or an ex! I text them both at 7am Friday, if I don't hear back today, I'm writing a review. They FINALLYYYY hit me back!!! Thank God! And they'll offer 3 free hours. The engineer responds for the first time too, he's going to send me the revised track at 7pm. He sends it at 11:45pm... I will have to respectfully decline the complimentary session. You guys made me so bitter along this process. I'll find PEOPLE that respect people, their time and have integrity in their word, their business and their work. No hard feelings, I just hope no one ever gets treated this way by you again.
