Working Environment
James North Productions' studio is located in a serene posisiton in St Lucia, Brisbane.

The environment is relaxed and is free from the spotlight feel of clinical studios. The live room is pitch black with downlights, and nobody watches you perform. Natural light filters through if you prefer. The producer is attitude-free and will be constructive at all times. Cable TV and wireless internet is available for your laptop whilst you use the studio and general kitchen/ bathroom facilities are also at your disposal.

Aims of the Studio
James North Productions has a highly professional, serious attitude towards making your music sound its best. There is no musical bias, no judgement and no negativity. Criticism is always constructive and informative. Care and pride are taken in processes and in the service provided, and all JNP recordings are backed by a quality guarantee. Also... it's fun!
