I visited First Studios for a birthday celebration with friends to make a couple of tracks and we had an absolutely amazing time! Props to Rozo, he did a brilliant job, so talented. We are all loving the songs we made, they have been on repeat since we left the studio! We've had so many compliments on the quality, how professional it sounded and how well the layering worked. I would absolutely come back again for another session!
