With all of the random questions and ideas that have come up since starting this blog, I feel like I’ve gotten off track in what was my original intent – discovering the process of recording an album and what exactly comes along in doing just that.
As an emerging artist, it might be obvious to begin playing as many live shows as possible and write as many songs as possible, but when it comes time to professionally making an album, finding a good recording studio might appear to be a little more difficult… but it’s actually not. Most active local musicians typically have some general knowledge of the recording options within their own specific city.
(If you’re interested in locating Chicago’s or any other specific city, check out this site.)
Studios can be found all over the country, but in Chicago… they’re every where. And I do mean almost literally everywhere. Each studio is different – they have different prices, offer different equipment, the atmospheres differ, and some produce higher quality recordings than others. The best way (and really, one of the only ways) to find a studio that best fits your need though is to simply contact and visit various studios.
Here are just a few located near DePaul:
The Boiler Room
Handwritten Recording
Studio Chicago
