Welcome to our studios! Come on in, have a look around, let's make some music!

At dunk!studios, you (and your band) can have recording sessions, get your sessions mixed (and mastered), rehearse or come together for post production of your music, assisted as required by professional studio-engineers. 

The control rooms are equipped with both the best of vintage analog gear, mysterious self made outboard and state of the art preamps, as high end digital convertors, DAWs and plugins. To keep full focus on the artistic side of creating music, we also offer accommodation and rehearsal spaces on site to keep your stay as comfortable as possible. 

Do you want to work on your single, EP or album in a natural, inspiring and relaxed atmosphere with full discretion and without any distraction? Just contact us and we’ll get back with possibilities for your future booking.

Since graduating he has been working in several studios and continues to do so until this present day.

Since september 2018, he founded dunk!studios together with Jannes and the dunk!crew. He and his colleagues have been working hard to create an environment where musicians feel at home. He also works as an in house mastering engineer for dunk!records and dunk!pressing.

Jannes Van Rossom

Jannes first got in touch with the production side of music being a drummer as a young boy. This evolved in recording his own demo and using those learned skills on other bands at the age of 15. At the age of 18 he wanted to take his interest in sound recording to the next level and started at RITS (Brussels) for audio recordings focussed around audiovisual projects. Two years into this training Jannes decided pure music production was the way to go and moved to PXL Music in Hasselt, Belgium. During his years at this institute he was able to learn the craft from experienced producers such as Werner Pensaert, Stijn Verdonckt, Filip Heurckmans and many more. During his four months internship he worked with David Poltrock, Mario Goossens and Peter Schmidt. After graduating in 2014 he still works with most of them but he also built his own studio space which we are now happy to call one of our dunk!studios.

Worked on: IDIOTS, Double Veterans, DVKES, De Mens, Jasper Steverlink, Yevgueni, Steak Number 8, BRUTUS, The Guru Guru, Douglas Firs, ROZA PARKS, Russian Circles (live album), The Scabs, Jacle Bow, Tom Helsen, Marco Z
