studio

STMPD recording studios is Amsterdam’s largest recording studio facility.
Designed as the ultimate playground for music and audio post-production.

About

With its grand history, these studios have welcomed (inter)national artists and producers like Pharrell Williams, Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg, The Black Eyed Peas, The Script, David Guetta, Giorgio Tuinfort, Big Sean, Akon and of course Martin Garrix himself.

After Martin Garrix B.V. acquired the famous FC Walvisch studio complex in April 2017, the facilities have been completely upgraded, giving the place new energy while maintaining the creative atmosphere, high service level and welcoming vibe. The studios are designed as a perfect mix between traditional quality standards and today’s production workflows.

Besides music, the studio has a long history in post production, providing audio services like re-recording mixing, ADR, sound design and music composition for film, high profile series, commercials and documentaries. Clients include Netflix, ABC, CBS, various film production companies, broadcasters and (inter)national advertising agencies.

Conveniently and discretely located, the studio is easily accessible within a 20 minute drive from Schiphol airport and only 10 minutes from the city center.
