The Voodoo Suite Studio is a private studio owned by Mamma Freedom and Producer Alexander Johnston, it usually only caters for Company CMI, Carlini group, In Touch Entertainment, the band, it’s family of musicians and various projects including One&aZero and Zoe Lee.
Alexander Johnston is an Industry approved producer in the US and UK, and is Music Supervisor for a Hollywood film company and is managed by In Touch Entertainment in New York whose roster include Oscar winning film composer Ennio Morricone, Eumir Deodato and Keith Emerson. He was lucky enough recently to team up with World renowned Mixer/Engineer Tom Fletcher whose credits include Don Henley, Suicidal Tendencies, Ozzy Osbourne, Steve Lukather, Toto, Yes, Yngwie Malmsteen and Hilary Duff to name a few and on his last trip to LA he was asked at the request of Producer Claudio Cueni to sit in on the recording of a track on the Latest Tupac record. He is joined on the Production team by his right hand man and Engineer/Producer Ben Husdan (One&aZero). With the experience and knowledge acquired over many years in the industry the Voodoo suite offers some unique qualities. We deal with all stages of musician, from the band doing their first demo, bands doing demo’s for record companies to a bands 3rd albums or 5th singles, from singers to rappers, jazz trios to full choirs, we deal with all styles too, right through to arranging, song-writing, re-mixing and session players. Unlike most of today’s studio recordings, our professional production team overlooks your sessions. Even if you’ve never sang or recorded before and want to try we offer a beginners rate too.
Most bands today are being charged sky high prices for 8 hour sessions with just an engineer and when your times up, that’s it your out, you end up coming away with a badly mixed, tinny, quiet sounding demo that you wish you could do again. Because the studio is privately owned you can specify exactly what you want and how long you want it to take, we have varying price plans to cater for our varying clients (times and session depend on the artists studio deal). It’s even possible for a band to record an albums worth of demo’s and be able to afford it, we know most bands have many tunes that they cant record due to costs, and this can sometimes lead to missed business in the industry, the tune you have recorded might not be your best, you can’t choose till you’ve heard them all recorded. We also aim to get the very best out of the people who use our studios as the artist has paid money to sound how they want to and our production team have a reputation to uphold.
