PROFESSIONAL RECORDING AND POST-PRODUCTION STUDIOS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF LONDON, MOMENTS FROM HIGHBURY & ISLINGTON STATION.


Since its establishment in 2009, REX has been building its reputation as a boutique recording and writing facility, and studio founder Macks has worked with Grammy and Mercury nominated artists, as well as a wealth of emerging talent, to create a space unlike any other.

REX offers two unique creative spaces full of high-end recording equipment and 100% vibes. Each room features the signature REX crushed velvet interior and mood lighting. Both studios have been professionally acoustically treated and are air-conditioned.

Ideal for: Writing, audio recording/post, multi-media production.

Smaller plug and play studio with two-seater leather sofa and motorised desk. Features an SSL Big Six Interface, Genelec 8040 monitoring, synthesizers, midi keyboard and SM7b mic, as well as an LG ultrawide monitor and a 43” 4K TV.

 

 
 

We recently started to offer a tape service to artists who want their mixes run through the Tascam 388. The 388 is so distinctive in its sound. It's an 8-track reel-to-reel with a built-in desk that runs 1/4-inch tape at 7.5 ips, and it can do something beautiful when taking digital stereo mixes back to analogue.

The tape service is a really cool way for people to get a piece of REX without even needing to set foot in the studio.
