I walked into Studio SQ for the first time as a musician, not as a video profiler, and I was in awe. The tracking room is a thing of beauty, with its rack of guitars and its grand piano, plus all the synths and keyboards and effects pedals and drum kits and all of the other incredible equipment just sitting there, gleaming, beckoning to anyone who makes music to come and play, come and create.
Yeah, I’m waxing nostalgic and poetic at the same time here. It’s that kind of place.
