The Sound Factory

The Sound Factory

The Sound Factory (aka Sunset Sound Factory) is a legendary recording studio in Hollywood, California.

The Sound Factory was built in the 1960’s on Selma Avenue in Hollywood. At the time, it served as the home of Moonglow Records and the Moonglow Recording Studio. In 1969, former RCA recording engineer and Warner/Reprise producer, David Hassinger purchased the Moonglow Records/Studio building and renamed it The Sound Factory. The studio became one of the most popular recording studios in Hollywood, which led its owner to open a second Sound Factory studio in West Hollywood. The West Hollywood studio was eventually closed.

In November of 1981, Sunset Sound Recorders owners Paul and Tutti Camarata purchased the famous studio.

The Sound Factory was used by many top music artists including Mink DeVille, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Linda Ronstadt, Ringo Starr, T Bone Burnett, Bette Midler, Richie Furay, Warren Zevon, Dolly Parton, Elvis Costello, Sam Phillips, Tonio K., Jackson Browne, Neil Diamond, Cher, Los Lobos, The Wallflowers, Kiss, Kenny Rogers, Beck, Brian Wilson, Victoria Williams, Ben Folds Five, The Jackson 5, Randy Stonehill, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Danny Elfman, The Vines and many others.
