Future Shock is a professional analog/digital music recording
and mixing studio owned by mixer/producer Alex Newport.

although the studio usually serves as base for Alex's projects, it is
also available to other engineers/producers. We also have an excellent
in-house team of engineers and assistants available for sessions.

Located in the uber-hip Greenpoint area of Brooklyn, the studio includes:

- fully acoustically tuned control room with Tannoy DMT-15 mains and
Yamaha NS-10 near fields

- 80 channel Amek Einstein "Super E" analog console with VCA automation,
Pro Tools HD, 2" analog, 1/2" analog mixdown,
lots of vintage outboard gear that geek engineers love.

- acoustically balanced live room with high-quality tie lines to studio

- extensive microphone and musical equipment selection

- client lounge with entertainment center, hi speed wi-fi, kitchenette,
and the all-important Playstation

The studio is located minutes from Manhattan and is easily accessible
by car, subway train, and private jet. Street parking is readily available
and there's a freight elevator for easy load-in.
In addition, there are 9 bars within 50 feet of the building, and scores of
restaurants/delis/corner stores/cafes/etc within a 2 block radius.
McCarren Park and Bedford Avenue are a 5 min walk away.

affordable accommodation packages are available for bands during sessions.
