Upon graduation from Colorado College, JD Feighner, purchased a large home in Colorado Springs and converted into a full working music studio. Our team of songwriters, singers, and producers follow the process of making a hit record from writing, arranging, producing, recording, mixing, and mastering.
The studios have been used to record artists and bands such as A Novel Form, Ten After Eight, Bodycast, Step To Every Pit, Mamzers Dream, YESSURR, Young Deuce, Elision, Habitual, and more. With 35+ high quality microphones plus an eclectic mix of mic pre-amps and outboard analogue compressors along with two fully tuned tracking rooms (dead and live) a very high quality sound can be achieved here for a lot less money.
