Location & Reviews

  • Anjuna Recording Studio has become my go-to recording space in the PNW. Actually, I love it so much that I just flew out there from Nashville to work on my upcoming record! Nashville, of course, has a studio on every corner LOL, but Anjuna just has a special vibe, and Slater Swan (owner/operator/engineer) is one of the loveliest cats you will find in this business. I often find myself drooling at his exquisite microphone and outboard gear collection, not to mention his incredible control room, which is faultless from an acoustic perspective. The place has style and has been beautifully curated across the board. Highly recommended!

  • Anjuna is a word class recording and mixing facility. So much care was put into not only the acoustics and functionality of the space, but also the aesthetics and vibe. Anjuna has many talented engineers that will help you create great recordings, they have an impressive collection of instruments and gear. It’s a top notch studio choice in Portland!

  • Attending Anjuna's recording, mixing, and producing workshop was a truly transformative step in my journey as an independent music producer. As fun and accessible as it is to bang your head against your keyboard all alone for hours and hours until something sounds decent, there's really no replacement for spending a few hours being guided by someone whose ears are simply more time-tested and battle-worn than your own. There are potholes to which I was blind before that I can now see; there are traps of indecisiveness in my process that are now illuminated with confident choice. And, as if the technical outcome weren't satisfying enough, the time spent at the studio with Slater, the artist, and the other amazing engineers was genuinely just ridiculously fun and engaging. Whether you're seeking validation of Anjuna's workshop (like I was) or looking to work with Anjuna for your next project, I'm certain you'll be well-served by this studio!

  • Our experience working with Slater at Anjuna could not have been better. From the initial tour to the recording itself, Slater was responsive, enthusiastic and invested in the project. We found the studio itself an ideal recording space, with an abundance of high quality instruments, an array of mics/preamps/other production hardware to suit our needs, and a well designed layout that allowed the work to happen seamlessly. The session was very project oriented, and Slater encouraged us to take the time we needed to get the takes we wanted and settle for nothing less. Listening back to the stems, it's clear that we were able to get them. Thanks to Slater and Anjuna Studio: would absolutely come here again!

  • If you're looking for a great recording studio in Portland Oregon, look no further that Anjuna Recording Studio in S.E. Portland. When I first found his website and was looking at it, I thought, "this looks likes the perfect studio for me" and...I was right! I just finished recording my new album there and everything was first flight. First of all, Slater put a lot of thought, effort and money into to ambience and that helped create a great vibe from beginning to end! Then he has the right equipment. A Hammond B-3 in top condition and a Fender Rhodes and Clavinet...and we used all three. The drum set is really great as well...including the cymbals. Slater was helpful, encouraging, accommodating and also fun to work with. His console and all aspects of recording equipment are all top shelf. And...his rates are very reasonable too!Treat yourself to a great recording experience at Anjuna!!!

  • Where do I begin…I attended the Engineer Recording & Mixing Workshop for the Swatkins session at Anjuna Recording Studio. What I appreciated most about how the session kicked off was how Slater created a space for the group of us to be vulnerable in sharing our experiences, goals, and objectives for the workshop. I feel this exercise was conducive to creating and setting an authentic and genuine learning environment that permeated over the course of the weekend. Slater’s approach to recording and mixing is one that was both refreshing and insightful and has given me the tools I need to approach audio production in a whole new light. If you’re looking to take your production skills to the next level, this is the kind of workshop you want to attend.

  • From the first correspondence I had with Slater regarding booking studio time and enlisting his expertise as an engineer, I knew it was going to be an incredible experience. His sincere enthusiasm and open mind allowed me to remain totally grounded in my creative space. Reflecting back on the 3 full days of recording, it feels like a dream! The boutique quality and vibe of the studio inspired me a lot - not only did we create beautiful sounds, we also were able to shoot some awesome photos! Thanks so much Slater! Can’t wait til next time.

  • Slater Swan has been recording Oregon State University music concerts for the past ten years. His work is professional, artistic, and technologically up to date. Most importantly, he understands the artistry involved in creating a recording and what it means to understand the music he is recording. Without reservation I strongly recommend his work.

  • The live recordings Slater Swan has done over the past ten years for the 130-member Corvallis-OSU Symphony Orchestra have been absolutely superlative as judged by patrons, orchestra members and regular listeners to classical music radio stations in both the Portland and Eugene areas. As Music Director, I have found his recordings to be accurate and compelling reflections of the vibrancy of our concerts. His work is of the highest professional standard.
