We Are Closed

From Bruce Springsteen to Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, some of the best albums in recent history were created with very minimal equipment in bedrooms, kitchens, attics and garages. Mirek Stiles, our Head of Audio Products (and a former recording engineer) explores how some of the most inspired creative work was created in isolation.

Last month, Nile Rodgers, alongside his management, invited a variety of artists, producers and songwriters to take over Studios Two, Three and the Gatehouse for his The Nile Rodgers Writing Camp at Abbey Road.

Sir Paul McCartney redefined popular music in many ways: creatively, technically, and spiritually to name but a few. His legacy remains deeply connected with Abbey Road Studios, and as Paul says in his own words: “Whenever I go to Abbey Road, just the thought of how many creative moments happened there makes me want to sit and think”. Abbey Road’s Cameron Colbeck gives us a deeper insight into one of the most successful artists of all time, and the inspiration he's imparted onto him.
