One Nation Studio Studios continues to facilitate local diverse bands which is fantastic.  Great to see such diverse artists coming into the studio whether they are using the excellent recording facilities we offer or using our fantastic rehearsal space!

Here at One Nation Studios, we offer both cutting edge technology and industry standard equipment as well as a very relaxed environment which is why we have many artists returning time and time again to repeat their enjoyable experience!

James has been pretty busy in the studio working on an EP with a local hip-hop artist known as Courage.

One Nation Studios continues to do workshops in association with the GAP Community Centre based in Warwick.  Recent projects include: "Recycled Beats" based at Woodloes Youth Centre in Warwick which involved 4 weeks of learning beats and then recording them as well as drumming with recycled percussion such as alloy wheels, oil drums etc.  Great fun to be had!

Another recent project was one based in Bidford-on-Avon, once again in association with the GAP Community Centre lasting for 6 weeks consisting of weekly 2hourly sessions.  The sessions involved an introduction to the programs they would be using, computer based software such as Virtual DJ, Fruitloops, EJay & Reason.  Approximately 25 young people contributed to this project which was amazing!

The aim of the project was to produce a finished CD with artwork.  So, following on from the introduction to software programs they progressed to creating an idea for a tune, developing that tune (in this instance, creating beats and rapping over them with a mic), editing the music, burning the music to CD and finally, creating a CD cover design complete with photos and graphics etc.
