I thought I would be interested in posting this as a topic. Also, post the before and after ones which one would you prefer. I prefer the older ones of Airwave he had some absolute dope equipment back then and the same thing with Ferry Corsten as well especially with that huge console he had on his desk. I don't know why he removed it. To be honest, I am not a big fan of these rainbow colours of the neon lights I suppose it's there as a show piece but I don't see the appeal of them.

These are Digital Blonde

I really liked the pics from ATB's studio back around 2009 - 2011.
That was a serious looking studio.
It featured a fat af built in console as well, pretty sure that's gone since a few years now.

They've all been ditching the big stuff for a while now...

I have noticed most producers nowadays have a very minimalistic studio setup and very apple copy and paste shit. No wonder everything sounds the same.

PS I am not an apple fanboy but the minimal look is soulless and very robotic as well.

I'd agree with that, a lot of em look too clean and clinical for me - can almost guarantee that someone is making bland ass 140 uplifting just by looking at their studio most of the time. and the fuckin useless UV lights some guys have, why? I keep a very lived-in look with mine but then I have to because it also doubles up as my wifes office

I am glad to see you agree with me and I am glad to see you have not adopted the whole minimalistic look. Because it looks cool I miss how Ferry Corsten used to make his tracks they made a huge difference. That music mixer made a huge difference in his track. It added a personal touch and signature .

@Electronlyman This is ATB's studio from 1999/2000

@facade1984 Speaking of UV light or LED lights This is Digital Blonde's new studio LOL. WHY??? My eyes hurt looking at that.
I don't understand this obsessions with lights in keyboards and studios seems pointless. @Uplifted Maybe you can tell me why he decided to turn his studio into this eye sore? Honestly, this is a terrible idea. I don't have facebook so I can't really advise him there but I guarantee you his tracks will be affected.

I'm gonna sounds like a hypocrite now and say Ricky gets a pass from me because he's a legit legend and OG of the culture, and he does 0% posing. I've met him a bunch of times and he's one of the loveliest and most unassuming dudes ever. yeah I still hate UV lighting but when he does it I get it, he's been carving out his own lane for decades now. still not saying I like UV lights in ANY studio tho

unrelated side note: above the monitor in my studio I have a giant UV painting I did of my dog. I'm still not putting UV lights in here though

maybe it's posers I hate more than the lights

When can we expect to a see a photo your studio? If you are comfortable with it. If not, then I totally understand.
