“The Manoir de Léon is first and foremost an extraordinarly personalized welcome,…
… by a team who’s main concern is your well-being right from the start.
The place is wonderful, a great big ancient house nestled in the lush Landes Forest with the at it’s core a studio equipped with incredible acoustics. Adapted for the richest and warmest sounds. I believe I managed to capture drums like had never been able to before. And that spacious control room is worthy of the best 1970s’ studios with top notch sound engineers who master this grand production tool offered to us and that guide you throughout your choices by their experience of this magical studio.”

“In this place all the conditions to produce the ideal recording are met…
…From the comfort of the accommodation and the fluidity of work offered by the studio, I can only praise this inspiring place to any producer or sound engineer. The control room designed by Malcurt as well as the live booths sound extremely good. It is hard to not be satisfied with the sound when you are assisted by such great assistants and have such a collection of quality microphones to choose from and to top it off the Neve console and the A827 Studer… In other words, only good stuff! Huge thanks to Karine for giving a second life to this mythical place and making it thus possible for the new generation to make records there.”

“From one record to the next, the difference is the story and the legend we build around it…
…To be able to settle into a studio, live in it, eat and sleep in it, has always been a unique and enriching experience that greatly contributes to the musicality of a project. Who has never heard of Miraval, Hérouville or Real World. These mythical creative places where numerous international celebrities such as David Bowie, Elton John, Pink Floyd, AC/DC and T-Rex sought shelter in to create their best records. As a producer and engineer, to find yourself in one of those studios with a band, allows you to focus on what is the essence of an album: the music itself. The Manoir de Léon is one of those places where it is all the essence comes together, where you can live, work, create and get inspired.” – Arnaud Bascuñana
