The home of engineer/producer, Brandon Karp. Brandon is a much sought after member of the professional audio world, who over the past decade has accomplished many great achievements in the world of recording.

Lending his talents to projects both in the studio and remote outside world, Brandon's work can be heard spanning all genres of music, as well as on numerous Grammy winning / nominated, Emmy winning and multi-platinum projects.

Gypsy Recording was established in 2002, and has since grown to offer services including studio and on-location recording and mixing, full artist development, and virtual mixing of music from anywhere in the world via internet.  Our goal, however, has stayed the same... to provide our clients with the very best of services.  We work hard to offer a balanced mix of professionalism along with a relaxed and comfortable work environment.

When asked how he got Gypsy Recording started, Brandon Karp responded the following:

"I went to college and I was going to be a doctor, but I got kicked out.... so I decided I needed to do something that I was already good at, and went to school for audio.  Shortly after that, I was offered a full time job doing recording in the real world, and I ended my college career.  A few years later I decided to go off and work as a freelance engineer, and built my first remote recording rig, which I named Gypsy Recording.  Although I love recording live concerts, I wanted to move more towards recording full project albums on-location, setting up a studio in an artists home or anywhere else... and it was great.  At the same time, I had a mix room in my house where I would do all of the mixing and post of the recordings I did on-location.  Eventually, artists that I was friendly with had started asking if they could record at my house rather then bringing the studio to them; I already had a room setup for recording and it was right next to my living room which they would set up in.  So, when I moved into my new place, I decided to build a full studio there... a space that was as comfortable for people to record in as a living room, but with fully designed and acoustically treated rooms.  And so we built the entire ground level into a multi-room studio, from scratch.  Doubled, non-parallel walls, mid/high frequency absorption walls, ceiling panels, double glass doors between rooms, and of course areas to just relax in.  And so now, not only am I able to offer remote/live recording anywhere in the world, or to work with clients within a studio-for-hire, I'm now also able to have my clients work in my 5th Street Studio."
