List of UK recording studios

The following list of UK recording studios is arranged in alphabetical order. While some of the more emblematic studios, such as the famous Abbey Road Studios, already have a dedicated article, many other recording studios were active during the the pop and rock boom of the 1960s, 70s and 80s, especially. Successive innovations in audio recording systems meant that large, expensive installations rapidly outdated, creating a market for small, highly specialised and often independent sound studios. Many have since changed hands or been shut down as the music industry consolidated, and since the turn of the century, with innovations in digital recording systems, Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), more can be expected to suffer the same fate.
