More than a studio. More than an engineer. Established in 2003 in the heart of the Witch City, Salem Massachusetts, this state-of-the-art analog and digital recording studio has worked tirelessly to become known as a sonic benchmark for the production of indie, punk, hardcore, metal, and experimental music. God City strives to collaborate with musicians who are driven to create new and innovative music based not around marketing plans, but around artistic integrity.

Welcome to God City.

The Studio

Built in 2003 by renowned studio designer, Wes Lachot, and hands-on operated by Kurt Balou, GodCity Studio delivers a world-class recording and mixing environment.
Live Room

(16’x27’) Large and visually striking, the GodCity live room creates a comfortable environment for a full band to record. Instruments can be played loudly without becoming harsh or losing their clarity. A precise architectural design of trappings and diffusers allows the room to maintain a very balanced sound.
Iso Rooms

Designed with the flexibility to accommodate a range of sounds, GodCity offers several multi-purpose Iso options in different parts of the facility. Whether you’re in need of a live vocal booth, an echo chamber or an area to capture a specific drum sound, we can dial in the space you need to make it work.
Control Room

(20’x15’) This is the nexus of the studio. Ergonomically designed to keep the engineer in the audio sweet spot, our control room creates a technically efficient and deadly accurate environment. Simply put, the musicians can maximize creative flow while the engineer hears every detail.
On Location

Record anywhere using the Godcity Remote rig. We can come record you at a live show, in your practice space, in your home, or anywhere with AC power that will tolerate the noise. Contact godcityremote@gmail.com for details.
