History

59 Dean Street has always been linked to the music industry.
In 1976, Tony Visconti created Good Earth Studios, where he recorded a plethora of great artists such as David Bowie, T-Rex, Thin Lizzy, U2, Moody Blues, Adam Ant, Prefab Sprout and The Alarm amongst many others. Other well known artists also hired the studio space independently during this time, including Paul Oakenfold, S’Express, The Smiths, Jesus and Mary Chain, Big Audio Dynamite, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Tina Turner, Wham!, Duran Duran and Dexy’s Midnight Runners.

In 1989, Viconti sold his lease to the music production company Joe & Co. They left Tony’s original control room & studio unaltered but developed the rest of the basement into music recording/production suites. Robert Plant, Pink Floyd, Tim Finn, Brian Molko, Bruce Hornsby and Cliff Richard worked here during this period, including two notable sessions were with Charles Aznavour and Chrissie Hynde who each sang a duet with Frank Sinatra. Dusty Springfield also recorded her last ever track in Studio 1 in 1995.
Lots of famous actors have recorded voiceovers here such as Sir John Gielgud, Sir Ben Kingsley, Robert Stephens, Harry Enfield, Julian Clary and Pete Postlethwaite. Stephen Fry also recorded the audio books for the Harry Potter series.

In August 2007, Dean St. Studios or Dean Street Studios was launched by Jasmin Lee, Suzanne Lee, Ben Roulston and Brenda Rowe. (Ben Roulston and Brenda Rowe left the business in May 2011, replaced by Eric Nicoli)
Artists such as the Black Eyed Peas, Noel Gallager, Paul Weller, Swizz Beatz, John Legend, Florence + The Machine, Tinchy Stryder, Nadine Coyle, The Saturdays, Plan B, Marc Almond, Fun Lovin’ Criminals, Carl Barat and Reverend and the Makers have since recorded there.

In early 2010, Studio 1 was one of the first commercial studio to upgrade to an SSL Duality 48 channels.

In May 2011, Dean St. was nominated for Best Recording studio at the Music Week Awards.
