Reviews for Modern Wave Studio
Modern Wave Studio
Took my daughter and son for their 9th birthday treat with some friends, to records 'Moves Like Jagger'. Absolutely fab experience and the kids thoroughly enjoyed and had a cd at the end of the day as a great memento. Matt was brilliant with the children, calm and cool with 10 9 year old children. The facilities are state of the art, and very important to me as a mum, CLEAN!!! The children want to do again. Cheers Matt

Having spent a day in Modern Wave Studio recording with "The Players", I can say that this studio, which presents a positive and friendly atmosphere, has the facilities to bring out the best in any musician and performer. Matt from the studio guided us through the whole recording process, as well as giving us useful and musical advice as on how to enhance our track to its full potential. The master take, which was produced from the session, was of optimum sound quality, but the service didn't stop there. Matt, through his contacts, helped us to get our song on the radio. I would definitely recommend the studio, and shall be definitely returning. James Steele, saxophonist of "The Players"

We recently continued our long running working relationship with producer Matt Ball by recording for the first time at his brand new Modern Wave Studios Set Up In Leek! We regularly return to work with Matt due to the high quality end result , professional approach and comfortable surroundings recording with him has always brought! The New set up has only added to this, Matt now has the fantastic facilites to match his production and musicianship! The track we recorded has received wide acclaim on release! hitting 2,500 hits on youtube in less than a week! we put this down largely to the production quality achieved at Modern Wave Studio! No matter how far down the line in you musical carer you are, we have worked with matt for years and will continue to do so! To hear a lot of the work we have done with Matt, Please check out our website. TheWay Stef,Scott,Art,Jon

We set out to replicate some of the more modern types of recordings that bands do (Green Day, Foo Fighters etc) and to our amazement Matt Ball managed to get this sound at a reasonable price. Practically the same thing you would get in a million dollar studio. Don't think, just book

My experience at Modern Wave Studio's was excellent. Very comfortable, easy going environment to record and the results were impeccable due to Matt's knowledge and feel for the music that he's working with. I will be using again in the future and couldn't recommend enough, thank you.

THE CHRISTIANS (Forgotten Town, Ideal World, Harvest for the World etc etc) hired Modern Wave to record their new album 'Speed of Life'. I can't rate it high enough ... first of all spacious, pretty impressive state of the art stuff .. brilliant sound .. Matt is a natural host ... he manages to be super efficient, helpful and accommodating without getting under your feet - his production skills are way beyond his years and WOW just generally loved the place and loved Matt. Its not the easiest of tasks delivering on Mr Garry Christian's expectations but somehow Matt Ball delivered over and above - oh ... and we really liked the price and you won't hear me saying that ever again. Emma Roberts ... manager THE CHRISTIANS

The studio is modern and spacious providing the ambiance for creativity whilst having the air of professionalism essential to master fine works. The studio has excellent support facilities for those on-going sessions, with a chill out area, full kitchen and shower facilities, there is just about everything you need to be comfortable. Matt is also an extremely talented musician and has a feel and understanding of what the artist is seeking which is reflected in the final production, he has the ability to add that little something that makes the difference between a good recording and a great one. No matter what level of performance you achieve presently, it will only be enhanced by a recording session at Modern Wave...you really should give it a try

This is a great studio and amazing value for money, Matt really dose go above and beyond to make sure you get the sound you want, it’s nice to be in a studio that is in it for the love of music more than the love of lining their pockets. Matt always makes you feel welcome and is not just a great producer but an awesome musician. Back in 2009 Matt had a big input on our debut single that was released with gene pool universal and sold over 10,000 copies in its first week of sales, with mass nation TV radio play and even hit the shelves in HMV. We have chosen to work with modern wave Studio for our workshop program MIP that will be working with youth services from all over the UK, promoting Motivation Inspiration and Positivity though Music.

What can say, brilliant. I bought a gift voucher for my wife from Modern Wave Studio and she totally loved the experience from start to finish. Once she decided on the three tracks she wanted to record she placed herself in Matthew’s hands and he followed the process through with complete professionalism.

Recently had our first session at Modern Wave Studio and cannot recommend it highly enough. The location is perfect, The facilities are really comfortable and well equipped (it's the only studio I've ever been to with indoor parking!!!) and Matt is a complete expert in sound recording. We recorded a live session and we literally could not believe the quality of the recording Matt produced for us in the space of one evening. There's nowhere else that can provide the range and level of service of Modern Wave Studio and we'll definitely be going back!!!!

I was given some money for my birthday but wanted to "Do" something that would involve my friends and dancing so I visited Modern Wave Studios with my friends and we made a "Pop" video! I really didn''t know what to expect and was a bit nervous about being filmed, but after 10 minutes my friends and I really got really into the dancing with the help of the brilliant team there. They were so much fun, professional and really knew how to get the best out of us which made for a fantastic Video that I can keep forever! It really was one of the best birthday''s I have ever had and we all laughed so much all day with the team! I totally recommend a visit as the photography sessions we had done too, were amazing! They have all different kinds of props to choose from and I really was over the moon with the whole day. Thank you so much Modern Wave Studios it was a top day and my friends had a great time too! We will definitely be back

I was introduced to Matt through a mutual friend as it was felt his services and studio would be of benefit to my company. In my line of work we have a need for recording studios and filming space (often with them being in different locations) we have to go to either Manchester, Birmingham or London. To find facilities of this quality with an internal engineer like Matt is a god send. We can now offer our clients the opportunity to come to the studio with us and see their production take place. Looking forward to a lot of exciting opportunities.
