About us.

In 2024, we founded Salt - a studio space built on the principles of ego-free creativity and audio excellence. Nestled in the panoramic penthouse of George Bowran House, overlooking the electric city centre of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to accommodation, amenities, and transport both locally and nationally.

The journey of ideas into songs and songs into records can be a delicate balancing act, vulnerable to tipping over from heavy egos and clunky technology. Creating a space as a haven for inspiration and imagination with the ability to transition seamlessly into the recording process was key to the vision and design of our studio. At Salt, you’ll find the perfect blend of elegant, comfortable rooms combined with exciting tools and instruments to inspire and initiate.

All our rooms have been designed and acoustically treated to provide the very best balance between vibe and accuracy, whilst providing plenty of natural light to keep you connected to the outside world. Our equipment list has been carefully curated according to our love of super-analogue tones and vibrant dynamics to provide you with nothing but the highest quality. Whether it’s exotic ribbon mics or vintage analogue synths, we pride ourselves on providing a recording chain and monitoring experience that will best capture every detail of your work.
