Here's what people are saying:
"It's been nearly impossible to find a studio in the
suburbs that I feel comfortable working in, but Darwin Records
has been a lifesaver. Working at Darwin Records puts me in
a great frame of mind to be creative and record great sounding
tracks. It's a perfect blend of vibe and great sounding gear
without the pretentiousness of most suburban studios. Darwin
Records is the only place to record north of Chicago."
Matt Walker
Composer / Drummer Smashing Pumpkins, Filter, Garbage
"Suede and I have worked together for many years,
and it's always great because:
a. He knows how to help get the best out of the song and the
artist.
b. He knows how to make the atmosphere fun and creative.
c. He is a giving collaborator, not one of those producers who
force their vibe on a project.
d. His studio has great recording gear and instruments (when
I was in town last fall, I got my favorite drum sound for my
new CD there).
e. The studio has a great vibe and it's nice to chill out in
such a beautiful area. Simply put, you'll sound and feel great
working with Suede."
Scott Bennett
Session Musician / Singer / Songwriter
(Performed with: Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow,
Brian Wilson, Neil Young, Paul Simon & many more).
"Suede sings smooth, rocks hard, listens acutely, and makes
everyone look and sound great."
Mike Konopka
Thundertone Audio / Metro Mobile Sound
"I've used Suede on several music projects, and he
knows his stuff. No matter what role he needed to fill,
he was at the center of the creative action. Not only
is he an extremely talented and versatile musician, he also
can compose when needed, and knows his way around the technical
side of music. Suede is one great all-around music producer
and for him to be in the Chicago area is a blessing."
Leroy Koetz
Director / Producer / Musician
"Derrick 'Suede' Stout and I grew up crafting the pop
hooks. He's a multi-talented guy with great musical
instincts that you don't find too often."
Doug McBride
Producer / Engineer / Songwriter
(Racheal Yamagata, Fall Out Boy & Oh My God).
"The sonic quality of the music Suede produces is incredible. The
studio is wonderful and the ambiance is very conducive to
creating the best possible product. Suede and his
staff provide unbelievable personal attention and Suede is
an amazing producer. He took such care making sure that
every microphone was placed properly, and that every musician
playing on my session was groovacious. He was able to get
the best possible performance from me, and everyone else every
time, while always remaining true to my original compositions
& creative concepts."
