London's Home of Inspired Music Making since 2007
Our Hackney Wick recording studios are built from the ground up with the artist and music producer in mind. Relaxed atmosphere, natural light, great gear and of course fast wifi.
Each studio is set up the way it should be – with all the tools you need for making great music.
Urchin Studios supports music creators from all walks of life – from self-funded independent musicians to world class major label recording artists.

If you not only need space, but a little sonic expertise to help guide you through your session then we are here to help.
We have a team of friendly and knowledgeable recording engineers that can help get that sound that’s in your head coming through the speakers.
Urchin engineers have recorded sessions by Nao, Florence and The Machine and Benjamin Francis Leftwich.
For those that have a project already recorded but just want that final polish, we offer a comprehensive mixing service.
This department is headed up by Dan Cox whose seasoned ears have mixed records by Laura Maring, Thurston Moore, and Peter Doherty.
So, do we mix analogue or digital? The (correct) answer is “It depends”. We don’t throw things through analogue gear for the sake of it – we use our ears to determine what’s best for the music.
Urchin Studios now offers a mastering service!
We are happy to provide mastering either as an individual service or as part of a package along with our recording and mixing services.
Our studios are the perfect location to record your podcast!
No stale, windowless recording booths here.
Enjoy our fully soundproofed studios, high quality microphones and recording equipment, all in a vibey and comfortable air conditioned environment complete with natural light.
