Far away has played host to numerous well known bands such as The Prodigy, Spiritualized and The Fall. The studio is set in beautiful surroundings in the Northamptonshire countryside, overlooking Ravensthorpe Lake. It's newly rebuilt and equipped to the highest standard, Far away offers all the benefits of a first-class recording studio in an affordable package. .

The recent refurb including centre piece procontroll mixing console, Lexicon reverb, Exigy monitors and also equiped with Gottomix mic preamplifier red two should make Far away a very attractive destination for artists looking for a well priced recording environment where they can focus on the project. Being just over an hour from London the studio is in a great spot and we were very surprised that we'd never been there before. We hope that the upcoming video tour will tempt you to pay them a visit!

The studio has accommodation with a lounge and kitchen with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Daylight floods in from almost every angle, it's got such a nice feel.

Chief Engineer Angus Wallace founded Far away in 1987, having studied Audio Production in London. Since then he and the other engineers at Far away have been recording and producing bands such as The Prodigy, Spiritualized, The Fall, Love And Rockets and Natacha Atlas/Transglobal Underground.

In 1993 Angus was awarded the Ampex Golden Reel Award and in 2000, a gold disc for his engineering skills on three Fall albums. In 2001 Angus pushed his knowledge of all things audio further by obtaining a masters degree in Sound Design. An excellent programmer, arranger and mixer, he has also been involved in co-writing with various artists, the most successful being Wishbone Ash.

Special thanks to Angus at Far away Studios for letting us in to take some snaps. Hopefully the picture feature will be here before the year end. Visit the Far away studio and arrange to visit, we think it's great and you'll love it!
