NoStairway Media is a multi-purpose production company specialising in music creation, voice-over production and video production; it even works as a recording studio!

Let’s create some music!
As a recording studio we love to hear a range of musicians, from classical opera to tribute singers and classic pop.

Everything you always wanted to know about Recording Studios but were too afraid to ask
Since the move to our much larger studio space we’ve been busy building what we feel is the coolest recording studio in town.

Running a recording studio seems, on the face of it, a pretty cool job, and it often is. One of the most pleasurable aspects is the amount of interesting artists and music we get to encounter close up. We record a lot of singers and often it’s like having your own private concert for free. [...]
Recording Studio with a story to tell
Its beginning to feel more like spring with the sun shinning outside and the diary becoming fuller by each passing week.
