ASTAR HONOURED AMONG EUROPE’S ELITE STUDIOS
Among its many awards and accolades, Astar Studios is immensely proud to have achieved top 4 finalist position for ‘Best Studio’ and ‘Studio of the Year’ for two consecutive years at the Pro Sound Awards, held at London’s Ministry of Sound. The prestigious awards, likened to the music production equivalent of the Brits, honour excellence in recording and live music production across Europe. Astar was selected by a panel of independent judges – experts drawn from across the pro-audio spectrum, who recognised the quality of the studio and the innovative approach of its Mercury Prize nominated producer-owner Andy Ross, who has created a stunning-sounding recording studio to serve artists at every level, including the growing independent music sector.
