Our four-control room studio is built inside a beautiful UNESCO heritage building on the historical naval fortress island of Suomenlinna, right outside Helsinki centre. We provide an inspiring space in peaceful surroundings for you to create your art - and we also have great gear and skilled and intuitive staff to help you get there.
Suomenlinnan Studio is a recording studio located on Suomenlinna Island in front of Helsinki. We boast four control rooms kitted to different needs – whether it’s tracking live bands, mixing and mastering your record, music production, writing songs or sound design, we have a space for you.
Our studios are housed within a stone-arched-roof building, built in the early 19th century. The island has it’s own peaceful and laid back atmosphere and the control-room view of the sea with Helsinki centre behind it makes it easy and enjoyable to keep your focus where it needs to be – on the music.
We've had quite an interesting mix of artists and producers work at our studio or have their work mixed / mastered here. They include Elvis Costello, ALMA, Sylvia Massy, Paula Temple, The National, Walshy Fire (Major Lazer), Avatar, Mavi Phoenix, Ryan D'Herde, Damian Marley, Cocoa Tea, Jesse Royal, Kabaka Pyramid and many more international artists - from dancehall to electronic music, from indie rock to chart-topping pop, we're doing it. There's also several hundreds of Finnish artists, both the cutting edge of avant garde and the top50 hitters. We employ nine different producers / engineers, each of whom have their own specialty.
We've also hosted several songwriting camps

Endorse Suomenlinnan StudioUnique studio in the heart of Helsinki. Only short ferry trip takes you to the peace of this historical fortress, surrounded by ocean you can have a deep dive into your art in a way that's not possible anywhere else. Amazing space, inpsiring atmosphere, with top-producers and wide selection of gear just makes your imagination fly! The home of art!
Special place for creation.
Studio is located on island in front of Helsinki, technology and staff are top notch and easy to work with, the acoustics of the large studio room are excellent, here you can really carve out the sound you want. The most significant thing in creative work is the atmosphere, and within these more than 200-year-old walls there is something special, it's feeling and vibration.
Great recommendation!
Beautiful and inspiring studio, 13 minute ferry ride from Helsinki city centre. Love this place, great vibes & good people.
