Blimey its been 7 years since the launch of Born in a Barn Recording Studio - and crikey there have been some changes over the years.

Originaly the studio (The Den) was kinda just 2 rooms - a live room and a huge control room. This got split into 2 rooms in 2001 when BB Studio was being planned and redeveloped.

In 2004 the Chillzone started to take place which bands really enjoyed and in 2006 the studio grew into a bigger space by taking over where the milk used to be collected in the old milking parlour. These new areas took time to develop and have changed a lot over the years.

More recently this year we bolted ourselves firmly to Rantprod HQ and developed a bit of unused farmland into outside decking/patio areas for smoking and dancing in the sun!

Today the studio has 6 rooms, an enclosed upstairs Chillzone and of course its spacious outside decking. Click here to view the funky floorplan.

With Pop Star Parties filling nearly every weekend, general recording work 3 days a week and songwriting taking up the spare time, BB is busy and looking forward to year 8 being .... great!

So what's in the news to mark this memorable day? - Cher Lloyd's debut album 'Sticks and Stones' is out today. How appropriate. Hard work and determination not to fail has always been the driving force behind BB and this year has seen many changes for the better.
