Default The Recording Booth


Should you find your way to the back area of the shop and not get distracted by the shiny band merchandise that takes up a good chunk of the area, you might notice the door tucked off to the right side. The middle of the door is obscured by an old, slightly faded poster advertising the London stop of The Dead Kneazles' 2087 New Wrock Order Tour; directly above this is a shiny plaque marking the room beyond as "The Recording Booth".

The door opens directly into the tech booth; inside you'll find a very large, enchanted soundboard and a plethora of various sound equipment. A sign on the wall asks that you please not touch the soundboard, as it is a very delicate piece of technology. Set above it is a wide window, giving you your first look into the recording booth itself. The room inside is wide, with several microphone stands scattered throughout; along the far wall, many enchanted instruments have been set up, waiting to be played by hand or charmed to life. You'll find that any artist entering the room will have their music or vocals magically isolated by careful charms laid out by the shopkeeper.

Time in this booth can be booked in advance by owls sent to the shop care of Atticus Zeller; walk-ins are also accepted on basis of availability.


Currently in session: The Sirens

Atticus was usually happy to accommodate fellow musicians with any help that he could provide, and he knew that even though his recording studio was modest in size, it had all the essential equipment any musician might need, from beginner bands to established ones too. Though he knew many of them had their own studios, but it could prove useful if they were on the road too and needed some place convenient.

Today, his summer intern and her band had requested use of the booth so he unlocked the door and waited inside to help them get started. He was rather intrigued with the thought of an all girl group coming in today, especially if they were anything like Nat. Looks plus talent were often a dangerous mix, and he wanted to see what they had going on for them.

Not only had she been working here this summer, but she had an awesome boss and he was cute. There was no lying about it. He was awesome and talented and had a recording studio in the shop. The Sirens had been dealing with a few bumps. Kali and Ilia leaving were hard for the sixth year, but she wasn't giving up and she knew someone with a great talent. So it was no surprise at the end of term feast when she had asked her lion friend to play guitar for them.

They had been practicing like crazy since Nat had gotten them a spot in the Bristol Young Talent search. So many owls over the term to secure that spot and now it was going to actually happen. "You are going to love Atticus" She was saying to the girls as she entered the recording room. Stopping when she saw him standing there.

Whoops...

He didn't hear that, did he? "Hi, hope we aren't too late." She thought they were on time, but she didn't want to have kept him waiting either. This was actually huge!

It had been a hard couple of monnths for Kelly...and for the band in general. She wasn't sure if she'd get used to the new arrangement they had. nothing against lily, she was great but Kali couldn't be replaced by anyone, emotionally. Everything was so new now and they had to figure out where to go from here.

But Nat, the star her best friend was, had gotten them a spot in a talent show and the blonde tried to pour all of her attention in there.

As they walked into the recording studio, the slytherin looked around all impressed like. This was a sick place and they were gonna record here?! Damn. "I am excited to meet him, after all you said about him." If Nat liked him, kelly liked him.

With the lose of two of their band members both due to different reasons and then the gain of a new member it had been a tough few months. One she had adjusted into relatively easily compared to some of the other ladies in the band. Hady was pretty laid back mostly so that helped quite a bit.

Having practice was normal. Practicing alone and with the band for this talent thing Nat had signed them up for was awesome.

But this.

This was something she wasn't even sure she could describe. Getting to work in a real recording studio was something she hadn't thought of. At least not yet. So when she was told they were getting the chance Hady readily agreed. If it helped out the band she was all for it. So here she was. The brunette ran a hand through her long hair, hazel eyes sweeping around the area taking it all in.

For now she said nothing simply observing it all.

For the last few months Lily had been apart of the Sirens. It was all surreal to be honest. She was a fan of theirs since the beginning. She realized how hard it was on the girls losing two of their bandmates, couldn't have been easy. Kali was one of Lily's friends too. So it felt weird coming in after her. She could not replace Kali, there was no way she could ever, nor did she want to try to replace her.

The past months had been a big adjustment for all of them. They were all getting excited about the talent search that Nat had signed them up for, and maybe a little nervous. Lily was very nervous. She sucked up her nerves she was good for that. And today, they were in the studio. A real recording studio at Nat's summer job. How cool was that?

She headed into the studio with the girls. She was quiet, but on;y because she was taking all of it in. All of their practicing, and hard work had gotten them here. Next stop, the talent search. Hearing Nat talk about her boss she smiled at him, he was cute!

It had only been a few minutes before their appointed time, but Atticus did want to take a minute to make sure everything was ready. Of course it was though. And he'd stay for a few once they got here to make sure they had everything they needed and before he'd need to go back out and help with customers. He was pleased to have a fairly busy summer so far.

He actually wasn't in the studio long before he heard voices approaching. And yes, he did hear that. Atticus smirked as the girls started filing in, his eyes resting on each one. "Hello, ladies. Welcome. No, you're right on time." And it didn't matter too terribly much, because they'd still get charged for the time, even if they were late.

"We do have instruments here, unless you brought your own." Some bands preferred their own but the ones he supplied were more than sufficient. "I'll give you all a few minutes to get situated, then we can begin recording." And if they had any questions, he was here to answer them.

As Nat's boss walked in Kelly's jaw dropped a little. Holy mother of cows. He was something else for sure. Not that the blonde was into older guys or men even but there was no lying about attractiveness. Okay Flenagan, get your act together. "It's a pleasure to meet you Atticus."

Looking around to her bandmates she nodded a little bit. Hopefully they'd understand what she was trying to say. It was still rough to see neither Ilia nor Kali with them but Lily was doing a great job. At some point she would get used to it.


Walking to the keyboard in the room the Slytherin ran her fingers along the keys softly. " I can not believe we are here. Thanks for this opportunity. "

There was excitement in the air. She could feel it jumping off her friends. This was amazing. Atticus was the coolest and Nat couldn't believe how lucky she had been to land this opportunity for all of them. "This is Kelly she plays keyboard, Lily is guitar, and Hady is our awesome drummer." Yes he was the reason they were getting to do this and he was way cool for it.

She made her way to the mic and looked around. "We are going to rock this." She had all the faith in her girls. They were doing great and it was getting closer and closer to the talent search. What a great way to practice and get some recording experience.

"Should we just have some fun and do one of our covers or jump right into You gave me love?" Her very first ever original that she had written a long while ago. She was thrilled when she was able to get help finishing it and tweaking it at camp last year.

Even though she hadn't done much if any talking as of yet the excitement was there in her eyes. This was huge for them. It was an experience some only dreamed about and they were getting to accomplish it.

The brunette shifted her hazel eyes away from all instruments and onto Nat when she began to introduce them all. "Nice to meet you Atticus," Hadleigh greeted with a small casual nod of her head. Now if she had been able to actually bring her own set of drums along with her, she would've. However drums were something not meant to be transported around just for something like this and well she wasn't quite of age anyhow to do anything magical outside of school. Which meant once again she would be using a drum set that wasn't her own. Not that it mattered all that much really.

Moving around the room towards the drum set and looking it over she quickly gave an approving nod. Picking up the pair of drum sticks she gave them a twirl between her fingers getting a quick feel for them. Not bad. They would do nicely. "Maybe a quick cover? Get a real feel for it all before diving into one of your own?" One song to make sure everything was set up just how they needed it to be. Nothing major.

Taking a seat on the stool Hady looked between her three bandmates and gave each her typical grin. She was ready.

This was amusing and so surreal. The excitement just continued to build since she had became part of the band. She looked around, relived that she bought her own guitar it was hers. No offense to Atticus or the ones here, she was sure they all worked fine. Of course. Her guitar was specical to her it was her first Christmas present given to her by the Hanovers. One of the best presents that was ever given to her. She nodded as Nat introduced her to Atticus "Hey its nice to meet you, Atticus. This is awesome." She smiled.

Heading to open up her guitar case, to get her guitar. She attached her strap and put it around her neck. She was ready, already getting started warming her fingers up."I stay let's do a cover, get us warmed up and used to the sounds, and the new environment." This was crazy, in a good way, the best way. She smiled widely. Looking at the other girls to see if they were ready to. Nerves and excitement flooded her thoughts. This was really happening. They could do this, they were amazing. They had this.

Watching each of the girls walk into the recording booth, Atticus had to admit that this was one hot girl group. Of course he'd like to hear how they sounded too, but they certainly had the look going for them. He smiled as Nat introduced them and they all said hello. "Nice to meet you all. I'm sure you'll find our accommodations are sure to meet your needs." Yes, he had top of the line equipment here.

He watched them all get situated, checking out some of the equipment, though the one brought her own guitar which was fine. He waited over by the controls, checking to make sure they were at the appropriate levels and glanced up to see if they had any questions, overhearing parts of their conversation.

"Now the cost is for one hour of the studio use and one song mixed and recorded. If you'd like more than that, it will be extra."
Just so that they were all aware of the terms that he had already laid out. Of course, they could play more than one song during the time if they wanted, but it was one song that he would work on for them. And they'd have to decide on that. He would be more than happy to charge them extra for extra time or music if they wanted.

So a cover was happening. She was so excited and that sounded perfect. When Atticus started talking about the accommodations she stayed quiet. She might have glanced in here a time or two since she started working. It was just too fascinating not to and Atticus was just so cool. "Everything is perfect boss, thanks." Giving him another smile she turned to the girls. "Let's do Goodnight by Reese Mastin." They had played that one a few times so it should sound pretty good.


Turning back to Atticus she nodded, "Yes I know. We are going to warm up with this one but the song we are going to record is You gave me love." She felt her stomach flip just saying the words. The title might make someone think it was about a relationship, but it was far from the relationship people would guess.

Pulling the mic close she glanced at the girls to make sure they were all set. "Ready?" Tapping her foot she counted them in to start playing.

The girls were in agreement to begin with a cover. Hady thought that was the best way to go honestly, get them all warmed up and ready. Once that happened they could switch over to the song they wanted to record.

The brunette listened quietly to what Atticus had to say. It all sounded fine to her. If they choose to stay a bit longer or record more then one song she was good with that too. Spending a bit of money on the band was not at all a bad thing and if it helped them move further with this then she was all for it.

"Sounds good to me," Hady agreed nodding her head in response to Nat. Both song choices she knew well having played them many times not only with the band but when on her own for practice. Shifting slightly on her stool she gently tapped her drum sticks together in time with Nat counting them all in. When it was time to play she jumped right in drumming in time with all the girls.

Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something...

Natalia had been working hard on music for years and since forming the Sirens she had put most of her energy into making them big.
She had gone to music camp in the summers, she had been working at this shop for three summers now, did an internship at a record label, placed really well in the competitions she had put them in, but now, now it just seemed like that work was wasted and they were back to square one.

She wasn't giving up though, no, she was determined and Lily was determined.
So their all group band had become a duo and that duo would make it.
She had gotten some sponsors for an independent album and Nat was determined to make it. Her and Lily could do it as a duo group. Their songs that were made for the Sirens would still be heard. Since the decision was made to end The Sirens Nat looked for a new drummer and a new bass. Lily had her guitar and an awesome voice and Natalia had her keyboard skills, so she knew they could do it.

Walking into the recording studio she took a deep breath, it was time to get started on this and putting all the hard Lily and her were doing to the test.

He knew Natalia knew how to get things set up in the recording studio, but Atticus still was going to meet her and her friend at the appointed time in the booth. Not only was it delicate equipment, it was his delicate equipment, and even the most seasoned expert would need someone take care of the recording while they did the performing. And he was happy to have someone use it for some time today. It didn't get as much use as he would have liked.

Once he had saw to some of his other store business for the day, he headed towards the back of the store and into the recording booth. Of course Natalia was already there. "Hello. About ready to get started?" They'd probably want to warm up first, but he needed to look over the equipment first anyway.

Then there were two, the one who started the Sirens, and the replacement. Though Lily had never actually felt like a replacement since age had joined them. She loved being a part of the band. The time with them had pushed her to follow a career in music which was now leading herself and Nat into going as a duo.

Now it was crunch time and the two of them would have prove themselves. The two of them were not wasting anytime. Hitting up the studio today, was a big deal for the them today. She had spend at goof d amount of time practicing this morning.

With her guitar tucked safely in its case, over her shoulder. She walked though the music shop. She headed toward the back to the familiar recording studio. It was now or never, make or break. "Hello, Atticus, Nat. You already? I'm going to need a few minutes." Swinging the case off of her should onto a near by stool she unlock the case which hand, the best ever first real Christmas present. Her first and very own guitar, thanks to the Hanover's. It was quiet easily her most prized possession. Even though she had warmed all morning at home, she just needed a few moments. Hello baby, pulling out the guitar from the case.

She hadn't been in there long when she heard noises coming closer.
Not looking up she knew who it would be before he walked in. She had been working here for three summers now and she had gotten used to Atticus steps. She was very comfortable around her boss and even looked to him as a mentor and a friend. "I'm always ready." She laughed and gave the instruments a glance again. "Feels weird without all the girls." She knew it was life, but it was still hard. Thankfully she could use a wand to charm the drums for now.

Looking towards the door she grinned seeing Lily. "Hey, take your time. Atticus was just getting here as well." Not that she expected any of them to be there as early as she had been. She was certainly always obsessive over music and her getting further and further ahead with it. She was grateful that Lily wanted to keep moving forward with her. She loved Lily like a sister and if she couldn't have all the Sirens she was glad to have just one.

"I'm warmed up and ready when both of you are." She could wait of course and while she was waiting she played with the keyboard a bit. She was going to play it while she sang this time, but her and Lily had split the music so they both were singing and not just one was being the lead. She was excited for them to start this journey and prove to WereWolfSnout they were worth their time.

"So it'll just be two of you today, right?" Atticus glanced over at Nat as he began setting up the mixing table. He was aware of some of the things going on with her and her band, though he had enough going on with himself that he probably didn't remember any details.

Ah, and there was the other girl now. Lily, wasn't it? Atticus wasn't nearly as familiar with her as he was with Nat, but he heard her name enough times to at least remember that much. "I just have a few more settings to adjust, then I think we need to do a sound check just to make sure." He had a good idea where everything needed to be, but it was never completely certain until they got started and he saw where he needed to adjust. But Lily would have a few extra minutes to get set up before they needed to get started.

Lily started strumming a few scales, she didn't even need to be told to take her time. She grinned, at them, "Just a few, I've been playing at home.". Man it did feel so weird it just being her and Nat now. She couldn't help but to glance at the door waiting for Kelly or Hady to walk through and join them.

She burst out in a whaling tune, just to cut her frustration, with everything right now. Music was always her escape and where she when went things were hard. She wasn't a physically emotional person but you could tell from her playing. Once she was done, She looked up at both Nat and Atticus..... "Yeah, I'm ready now." It was now or never but the fiery redhead was ready for anything.

It would just be the two today she couldn't help but frown at those words.
Yes, it would just be the two for now on. They still had their chance to play with WereWolfSnout, but that was just to play at one concert, if they didn't find them good enough they wouldn't be asked to stay. "Yeah, I'm going to charm the drums and I'll be on the keyboard. I think that will work just for this." They would need to look for new members if the WereWolfSnout didn't pan out.

Giving Lily time to practice she went closer to Atticus to watch what he was doing.
She was always interested in everything that went into music not just playing it and honestly who wouldn't want to stand close to Atticus, like seriously look at him.
Her eyes lifted as Lily said she was ready and Nat smiled at them both before heading back to the keyboard.

"How about a favorite to start with. Never Growing Up?" They knew that one so well she knew they couldn't screw it up and it was a good start before they went into some originals.

Atticus supposed it would work to have some of the instruments charmed for them to lay down the track. Some magical folk did that, but not all liked the autonomy of it. "You could do that if you wanted. Or you could record each one individually. Sometimes it works more organically that way, rather than so precise and mechanical." Music wasn't always so rigid to be played on a magical loop.

And it seemed like Lily was ready just as he was finishing up the adjustments. "Alright, one time for the sound check? I'll be just outside so I can hear if I need to make any fine-tune adjustments. Then you can start recording your track." They knew the gist of it, but it wouldn't hurt to just reiterate things so they were all on the same page. And he headed outside the booth, shutting the sound-proof door behind him, to go sit by the controls with his headphones on.

Why has she never thought about that? It was a great thing that Atticus was around. She had learned so much from him and he was a great boss and mentor.
"We can do that for sure." Though she hoped someone could do the drum part because she had no clue how to play those. She watched Lily for a moment and then let her eyes go back to Atticus.

"Alright let's just do a warm up with one of our covers before we start on our originals. How about Never Growing up?" That probably would be easiest. She hit the keys for a moment before counting them in. That was one of her favorites at least. So she hoped Lilly didn't mind.

Starting the music Nat was already into it once the singing started and she clearly knew the song well because her voice carried it and she moved a bit with the beat of the music. Her fingers gliding over the keys easily as she went.
