The Studio Eole is a place dedicated to creation and music production, driven by the musician and producer Ben Rando who has been taught by two of the best sound engineers: Chris Lord-Alge (James Brown, The Rolling Stones, Tina Turner, Aerosmith…) and Leslie Brathwaite (Snoop Dogg, Erykah Badu, Beyonce, Rihanna…).
This space has been designed in collaboration with Absolute DDD© with the aim of making a perfect acoustic environment. His warm ambiance and high end gear offers ideal conditions for making music videos and recording albums.
The studio has five different spaces:
a 40m2 main room
a 20m2 drums room
a vocal booth
an amp booth
a 20m2 control room also used for recording
Located in the middle of the woods of Provence, in a village called Rognes, the Studio Eole is a peaceful place to create music. 35 minutes from Aix-TGV train station and 45 minutes from Marseille Provence airport. Possibility of accomodation on the spot.
