BlackTree Recording <\/span> formally located in Tardebigge, Bromsgrove, later teaming up with the Palace Drum Clinic<\/a> which is located in the Kingfisher Centre, Redditch has unfortunately permanently CLOSED DOWN. I\u2019ve decided to keep the original website up as a tribute to what was a great recording studio which over a 12 year period recorded & filmed some amazing musical talent, thank you to everyone who used the studio\u2026 Mark Westwood.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The studio has an open plan layout which is large enough for full band live multitrack sessions with nice sound separation & good visual communication with drum, vocal & guitar isolation booths (new pictures available soon).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
