the hatch recording studios worcester
 




The Hatch is a unique recording and production facility, entirely tailored to the needs of the performer. The combination of first class equipment and stunning location produces creative possibilities and an ambience like no other. The Hatch was set up to offer a top quality studio in the peace of the deep Worcestershire countryside. Set in 35 acres of hills and woodland, this former hop farm is stimulating and enchanting - an inspirational space for any project

Ben (studio owner & session musician), spent the past 6 years travelling through Spain, eastern Europe and Africa, playing with indigenous groups and learning native musical styles. He is an accomplished guitarist and drummer, and built Hatch Studios on his return to England to offer a professional recording environment in the heart of the countryside.

Hugh (engineer & electronics designer), worked in numerous studios in London, before co-founding the Hatch. He is now the full-time in-house engineer, and has worked with major artists and producers in all genres of music.
