Back (in time): How to prepare a recording studio

First published 15th November 2019

 Step 1, push the bed to one side

Step 2, Go up in the loft and find black bags containing curtains from our previous house in the village – they don’t suit this house (too traditional) but too good to throw away. I even came across 3 fabrics that I screen printed when I was a student at Art College!

Step 3, fix them to poles and hang them from the walls – hopefully that should stop the sound bouncing off the walls and echoing

Step 4, cover the wooden floor with a rug (a kilim bought in Turkey – again doesn’t suit our house so it lives rolled up under the bed.)

I wonder if the Beatles had to do this at Abbey Road?
