Your recording studio in Berlin-Spandau – on the island instead of in the backyard

Eiswerder is an island in Lake Spandau – two bridges, an old brick building complex, water on all sides. Those who arrive here leave the noise of the city on the opposite shore and take exactly that with them into the studio: peace, focus, and an atmosphere conducive to music creation.

Island in Lake Spandau

Instead of a backyard and traffic noise: calm water right outside the door, a shore to breathe between shots.

Creative Quarter

Listed factory buildings from 1893, once the backdrop of the Berlin film industry – today studios and workshops.

Arrive & recharge

Coffee in the lounge, beer garden on the riverbank, a break in the greenery – and in between, concentrated takes.

Eiswerder Island – your way to the studio

Your sound is created 100% by hand – we only use AI for the visual atmosphere, never for your music. The cover image and the shots of the creative quarter and beer garden were edited and composed with AI support (lighting, people depicted). Learn more in our AI transparency.

The studio: two rooms, one standard

Two 20 m² rooms on the island: the control room with acoustically optimized monitoring – and the green lounge with a moss wall, couch, and coffee, where you can relax between takes. If you want to take away content from your session, let us know in advance – video equipment is available, and we'll discuss the scope beforehand.
