Equator Studios, once devoted to film and TV sound tracks and Charlie's own writing projects, is now open to other musicians and singers to work in. With a basic philosophy of 'keep it real' the aim is to produce high quality recordings on a reasonable budget with minimum of fuss.

Based on Logic Audio software used in conjunction with a funky Mackie desk with various bits of outboard the studio features its own drum kit, amps, and a selection of acoustic, electric and ethnic instruments. Charlie often plays a part in the overall production, plays string or electric bass as part of the house rhythm section, and can usually be persuaded to dub fiddle, accordion or keyboard parts as needs be.

Sam Brown, Paul Astles, Johnny Atkinson, Billy Jenkins, John Collis, Tony Lording, Chris Jagger, Ben Waters, Samba Mapangala have all recorded in Equator Studios. Other projects have included the recording of unaccompanied Swedish folk songs, Inuit music, and African and classical music.

If you are considering a recording project of your own and would like to more about this unique recording environment please contact Charlie.
