Room to Record is now up to 16 members (welcome to the 4 new members today!), so I’m extending the founding member offer to the first 20. That means there are 4 founding member spots left. I’m currently finishing the free Starter Toolkit and the free intro course, with resources on practical room setup, useful gear, cheap room hacks, creative prompts, recommended tools, vibe items, and ways to make your space easier to use and easier to record in. The aim is simple: Build the room. Use the room. Make the thing. Founding members get early access as this all goes live and will help shape what Room to Record becomes.

The free course is becoming something more useful: The 30/30 Challenge The goal is simple: 30 days to build your creative space. 30 days to make something in it. That space might be a spare room, garage, shed, bedroom corner, office, or whatever odd little rectangle you’ve got available. The first step is to Post Your Room. Before you buy anything, post an image of your actual space. Not the perfect version. Not the cleaned-up fantasy version. The real one. Add: • 3 photos of the space • rough measurements • what you want to make in it • what gear you already have • the biggest problem with the room right now I’ll be using my own room as the example: a former single garage turned into a 3.0 × 5.8m studio and creative workspace. The point is not to build a perfect studio. The point is to make a usable space where you can record, write, film, teach, practise, podcast, create, or finally finish the thing that keeps getting delayed by “I’m not set up yet.” Start here and post your room. #RoomBuild

This community is for people building creative spaces they can actually use. That might be: • a full home studio • a desk in the corner of a room • a laptop and headphones • a rehearsal room • or complete organised creative chaos The goal here isn’t perfection. It’s building a space, workflow, and mindset that helps you keep making things over time. We’ll be talking about: • studio setups • workflow • creativity • procrastination • recording • songwriting • gear • clutter • distractions, and • the strange process of trying to make meaningful things while still living a normal adult life. Feel free to introduce yourself, share your setup, your goals, your music, or just quietly absorb ideas while pretending you’re “still planning things.” Very common here. What are you currently trying to plan, build or create?

Let’s start simple. What kind of music are you making, what does your current setup look like, and what’s the biggest thing you want help with right now? Whether you’ve got a full studio, a corner desk, or just a laptop and headphones, jump in and share where you’re at.

Someone has posted a video review of the new Room to Record Skool card, which is both lovely and mildly terrifying. The useful bit is that it gives us outside feedback on what the group looks like before anyone joins. That matters because a community doesn’t just need good content. It needs people to understand why they should walk through the door in the first place. I’ve been trying to make Room to Record clearer: Build a useful recording space at home and start making things. Not perfect studio fantasy. Not gear worship. Not waiting forever. Useful room. Real output. That’s the direction.
