Wolf Studios has been in business for over 20 years as one of the top London independent studios. The complex is located opposite Brockwell Park in Brixton, South London, and is owned and run by producer/engineer Dominique Brethes.

The studio is best known for high quality mixing and mastering on a budget, but our small cosy live room with its high ceiling, and our superb selection of microphones make it ideal for recording vocals, horn sections, string quartets and most individual instruments including drums.
Both studios are equipped with the same top of the range Pro Tools HD3 systems and Studio 1 offers a huge selection of the best vintage and modern equipment.

Main studio (Studio 1)
