The best recording studios in Singapore

Newly opened, Saylah Studios is a one-stop creative atelier that features a music production studio for recording, a multi-purpose space that doubles up as an exhibition platform, and a hang out spot for friends at their occasional gigs.

Founders Ernest and Krysta were musicians before they were sound engineers, so you will be happy to know they will be able to lend a hand when it comes to music tracking as well. And if you’re unsure about committing to a session just yet, make a trip down to feel out the space and engage in a casual consultation about your next project. Contact them via Instagram. 

Sit back, relax, and entrust your next music project to Leo Studio. Founded by artist Qiu Feng Ze and record producer Cheong Waii Hoong in 2017, the studio guarantees industry standard production with superb audio equipment and acoustics, promising you both quality production and an enjoyable time all at once. They offer two types of packages, one that provides only the room and the other that includes controls. Find out more here. 

Behind the voices of local musicians like JJ Lin, Gentle Bones, Charlie Lim, and even ex-Singapore Idol Sezairi, is Noivil Studios. The studio provides a space with proven top quality recording facilities and equipment to anyone who wants to get creative. It comprises four rooms – The Deck for live gigs, The Helm for songwriting and production, The Starboard for recording and mixing, and The Port for recording, mixing and producing. Book a session here.

A true hidden gem – Wild Pearl is a music production studio in Pearl's Hill Terrace. Music creators are free to rent out the space in 2-hour or whole-day slots to record budding masterpieces. But what's got us excited is the occasional open house night hosted at Wild Pearl. By that, we mean parties – complete with drinks and DJs spinning the decks. It's all a little hush-hush. To find out more, get in touch with Wild Pearl via Instagram. 

For a cosy jamming and recording sesh, look no further than the Music Parlour. Sharing the same space with music shops and services, it's also home to three industrial studios and an acoustic lounge that also acts as a control room for recording and mixing. The rooms range from small to extra large and are divisible by retractable panels, so if you decide to mass rock out, the rooms can be altered to accommodate more than 20 people. Don't worry about instruments too – you can borrow its in-house guitars.  

An intimate space for artists and musicians to host gigs and other performances. Lithe House also provides recording and rehearsal services for musicians who want to get down to business. Situated a short walk from Rochor MRT, this centrally-located studio is also a great hideout for artists and musicians so chances of meeting other like-minded people are high. 

Rather than down at the basement as its name suggests, climb up the Golden Mile Tower for a space that's well-equipped with state-of-the-art facilities fit for practices, recordings and playful jamming sessions. Despite welcoming avid music jammers of all levels, the Basement Studios is relatively hot for those serious about their craft, even opening its space for 24 hours on Saturdays.   

Here's a recording and media production studio that prides itself on delivering top-notch productions for a wide range of genres. What particularly stands out at Backbeat Studios is its acoustic control. Its wall panels and ceiling panels are positioned and angled in such a way that they absorb sound to optimise the acoustics and control their reverb and frequency responses. And if you've got a tight budget or deadline, consult with the team and they'll get you sorted in a jiff.
