Hi! My name is Scot, a.k.a. The Urban Slacker. I am USB Productions which is part of a collective, also featuring:

Press Play
Smerrins Antisocial-Club
Tom Wilding.

I have been working in the music industry for the past nineteen years as tour manager, backline tech, live sound, recording engineer and producer. I have worked with many artists from all over the world and as well as my extensive work on live performances, I have spent a great deal of time engineering, producing or assisting in various recording studios. I have a very wide and varied experience of both stage and studio, giving me the opportunity to take the best of both worlds and use it so that the artist gets the best possible recording/mix for their material.

I moved to Bristol in 2003 from Oxford, where I had a project studio setup called R-House (because it was in our house). We recorded various local acts, Including Suitable Case For Treatment, Ivy's Itch, & Sexy Breakfast. I soon got to know Bristol and experience its musical culture, and when I decided to move here I quickly met various local musicians through engineering in live venues around the city. After doing mixes for some for them in my small home studio, I decided I wanted to get a proper recording studio going again in order to better capture some of the ever changing Bristol music scene. After much searching I met the other people involved in the collective and together we have now created something beyond all our expectations.

My approach towards music and recording is about capturing the moment.

If I can help you with your music in any way or if you have any questions please drop me line.
