Nautilus Studio

 
Italian

 


The Studio was born as a personal studio in the early 2000's and gradually incremented its instrumentation and know-how in the last  years.  I could tell you I employed an entire life to set up this little studio. I started with nothing... just like you, but now I have this space and this instrumentation to make great music.
To produce is not enough, producing well is important. 
Today I can produce high quality masters and songs for pop, blues and jazz artists and bands.

Differently from others I believe that independent production must be of high quality.  
The studio is equipped with the state of the art pieces of instrumentation and offer the best mix of warm-vintage sounds and cutting-edge technology.

All the compositions will be performed by (not just professional musicians but) professional artists like myself (at least for guitars, bass, piano, organ, drums, occasionally helped by my qualified collaborators, and my brother Paul which is also an engineer. 
Often these musicians have lots of years of experiences both live and in studio. Sometimes the are younger but the fact that they are all personally selected is a guarantee for you and not only for me.

Typical studio activities:
  • songwriting, arranging
  • score production and "teaching material" of immediate use
  • audio recording and digital audio editing
  • post production, mixing, mastering
  • publishing (on digital platforms)  possibly avoiding streaming
  • moderate promotion (I am not a professional of promotion so I mainly use socials)
  • video creation and publishing 
All musical languages represented:
  • rock and roll, boogie-woogie, neo-rockabilly, surf-rock, beat
  • blues, soul, gospel, country, roots Americana, British pop, reggae
  • jazz (swing, be-bop, songs and more)
  • progressive, psychedelic rock, any other rock form and language
