Here it is, my big blank page, torn up and taped back together again, so often. Each time I do, the pieces are smaller, the puzzle is more complex and all the richer for it. I’ve given so much thought to bringing this to an end, failing to see that it’s just a new start after all, already here, fully formed and alive, waiting for me to catch up. Walking into my new space for the first time after completion, I was genuinely terrified, the wait was over and it was time to prove I could live up to it. So I opened the last track I was working on when I left my old studio, cranked up the @genelec_oy and it all came rushing back. I was home. My vision for this place could never have become a reality without some extremely talented and loving spirits, first of all, @rakelacchino for encouraging me to dream bigger and live larger and setting me straight whenever the challenges became hard to handle. @flanalog for always being there when I needed you. Every time. Without fail. I’m honoured. @lowswing_studio and @kraatzstudios for your support and for not letting me back down. My new studio neighbours @key.ratio and @valerio.massucci for your patience and making the whole process as easy as possible. And Wim Tavernier for sharing your woodwork expertise. It’s been a pleasure sharing this process with you in photos and words, and on day 5, the last day of my studio construction recap, thank you so much for reading and sharing your thoughts with me. So many people have reached out and I hope to see all of you here soon. This is where it all begins and new releases will follow. Much love, Jim x #berlin #recording #studio #studiobuild #studioconstruction #studiolife #musicproduction #genelec https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj-QWHCI6B-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
