About us

Three treated rooms on the ground floor — since 2019 a steady address for recording in Amsterdam West.

Empty live room with drums, guitars and acoustic panels in brick space

A studio built to see each other

Oaklandledger is laid out for playing together while listening properly. The live room fits up to 5 musicians; the booth stays dry enough for rap and spoken word, while vocalists keep eye contact with the control room through the glass.

We schedule sessions in-house: Sanne de Vries runs the studio, supported by recording engineer Maarten Jansen and scheduling by Lotte Bakker. Whoever writes your quote usually also chooses the microphones.

Rooms in numbers

Live room — 36 m²

Wood floor, diffusion and absorption on brick; drums, guitars and bass can play at once.

Booth — 7 m²

Compact vocal booth for singing, voice-over and dubbing.

Control room — 20 m²

Symmetrical monitoring, 16 mic inputs and conversion up to 96 kHz.

What to expect

We say honestly when a half or full day makes sense. Mix and master work runs in revision rounds: typically up to 2 feedback rounds per project, fixed in your quote. Send reference tracks if you are unsure about scope.
