   Gavin [Magic Garden Recording Studios]'s Blurbs
About me:
I was brought up in the late 70s in Brixton on a diet of angular punk rock and dub reggae. Anyone could form a band then, and Im overjoyed to see that independent spirit has returned to music. Recently I had a national number one record with a band who released on their own label. These are exciting times!

Deep in the forest of twisted metal, something stirs. Mind-bending noises emanate from the densely-packed sonic breeding ground that is the Magic Garden Studio. Twisting tendrils of sound and bone-crushing riffs looped, teased, hammered and driven by whirring, clicking valve-driven dinosaurs and slick computer waveforms alike, writhing snakelike from the minds of some of the most influential artists to populate modern music, straight to your ears, via the fertile, skewed imagination of producer Gavin Monaghan.

MAGIC GARDEN STUDIO: Dedicated on a lifelong mission to the spirit of rock and roll since 1989. Accept no imitations or substitutes. We are the originals.

Please see the Magic Garden FAQ Part One and FAQ Part Two.

Who I'd like to meet:
Interesting, creative, talented and driven individuals, with ambition far beyond their current achievements. I also believe that all progress is made by unreasonable people!
