History
The studio was located in a flat-roof building behind the villa shared by the families of the members of Gnags since June 1971. A former carpenter workshop and paper factory, it was first used by the band as their rehersal room. In 1976 as Gnags were to record their third album 1925272, to keep costs down they started recording here. Gradually - with the bands growing success - the studio became more and more well-equipped and was soon made available to other artists, primarily the local and provincial ones. By the 80's, as Aarhus became just as important to the pop music industry as capital Copenhagen, several major Danish artists both recorded at the studio and was signed to Gnags' own label Genlyd. In 1984 Tom R. Andersen was employed as producer and engineer, working together with Gnags guitarist Jacob Riis-Olsen a.o. The popularity of the studio decreased after the millennium - as did Gnags' own recording activity and sales - and by 2011 the studio folded. The recording equipment was taken over by the sole remaining engineer Magnus Vad to open his own studio Feedback Studiet, Lydhavnen in 2012.
