Situated in Monksland Business Park, Athlone a new and alternative approach to the astronomically expensive process of recording is central to this company’s niche within the music industry in Ireland. Boasting high-end production quality Vega Music Studios offers singers the chance to record their favorite songs along to professional backing tracks for just €49 per song!
With the onset of universal software technology in recording, studios no longer require oversized mixing desks, large premises, and an array of hardware materials. Music director and head of programming at Vega Music Studios Marc Madden says, “The technology has been there for only a few years from industry leaders in music manufacture who already moved with the times and it just required advanced knowledge of its procedures and processes in order to bring its application to the masses. Everything’s supposed to be immediate and virtual these days! Why not music?”
The studio has just finished production of the new Miriam Carley Fear of the Dark album along with many other projects which undoubtedly prove the studio’s professionalism and will soon be able to offer these very same recording facilities to original bands and solo recording artists. For the moment however, the studio is open to anyone who wishes to record a song whether it be singing, rapping, or even beat-boxing to their favorite backing track!
“We just want more people singing,” Marc said. “People shouldn’t be afraid to express themselves whether they feel they can sing or not. It’s how it affects them personally that’s important.”
