Recording and producing great music takes a combination of things to get the mojo right. You need top end equipment, great people, the right environment and good vibes all round. The Porch Recording Studio has it all. Located on the outskirts of Hamilton in a serene rural setting, it has all you need to put everything else behind you and focus on the job of creating great music and sounds. We can write, compose, produce, arrange, engineer, record and enhance the vision you have for whatever soundtrack you are putting together.

Welcome to The Porch Recording Studio.

TV/Radio

The soundtrack you put behind your business - be it voice over, dialogue, music bed, jingle, sound effects or a combination of some or all these elements will make a huge difference to how you position yourself. Don’t settle for a cheap soundtrack. With the right investment we can help you stand out. We have a wide range of production music at our disposal plus the talent and creativity to give you the edge through great original music and sound.

Albums/EP’s/Singles/Demos

We have worked in varying capacities on a very wide range of musical recordings. The best way to find out is to play some of our work and, if you are keen to bring your next musical creation to life with us, give Regan a call.
