Creation Studios Ltd

I really like the idea of Creation Studios. Not only is it a recording studio and a great place for getting in some band practice (ahem, not that I’m at all musical) — it’s also a café and coffee shop. Complete with free wifi!
However, I think this place might be better on the music side of thing. It seems really authentic, with plenty of blokes hanging around with guitar cases (nice for the view you may say…)
However, I wasn’t too keen on the sound of their menu — and the whole place felt a little bit unfinished. The atmosphere felt more grimy than electric sadly…

Went here for a practice in my band on the recommendation of my friend, a change of scenery from my usual.
It’s in a better location for me, and moreover, it’s also a coffee joint with free wifi which makes for a much better place to wait around on everyone else to show up or for a post-​practice chat.
They also have live performances on in here from what I hear, with other associated musical razzle dazzle that I am presently oblivious too.
There are 4 rehearsal rooms which are a good size, with decent equipment which is all you can ask for really. The location again, is ideal, near some newsagents and places to pick up a cargo.
Recommended for a band practice or wee afternoon cuppa if you’re down this way.

Good for gigs… dunno
Good for recording Studio… dunno
Good for a coffee and a wee shot of the free wifi… yip
As a coffee joint this place has a few good things going for it.
1. good coffee made well…
2. free wifi…
3. plenty of seating…
4. big f*ck off windows for people watching
5. Kick ass artwork, photos on ra walls
6. Nice friendly staff
But for some reason it doesn’t feel… actually, i’m not sure. Make sense?
It’s not traditional in any sense, this place. It feels nice and is very practical, however there is something that feels not quite finished about the place, like its waiting for something, someone or anything to come find it.
Ok, so its true guise is that of a recording studio a and music venue therefore an afternoon coffee may not be the best way to vies it. Don’t get me wrong, i do like it and would probably come back to see it in a different light…
Try it, let me know what you think… is it missing something or am i just looking at it with the wrong glasses on?
