At first glance, there don’t seem to be many parallels between sound recording and webhosting. Indeed, we thought the same thing before we visited Swing House Studios in Hollywood, CA earlier this year. But by the end of our visit, we walked away convinced that Swing House and ServInt were natural partners and we’re ecstatic to have them aboard.
For music recording studios like Swing House, and for webhosting companies like ServInt, relationships are the most critical part of our business. As Swing House founder and President Phil Jauriqui is fond of saying, “If Hollywood is the home of Rock & Roll, then Swing House is it’s living room.” It’s that sense of intimacy that makes them so compelling.
The studio is unpretentious and nonchalant, it knows it’s there to simply facilitate the creation of great music. Each rehearsal room looks and feels lived in. Littered with equipment and style, the facility feels like you’ve stepped into a copy of Rolling Stone Magazine.
With that being said, it’s not surprising that Swing House has recorded some of the biggest names in the business for over 16 years. Despite their esteemed clients like Nine Inch Nails, Ziggy Marley, and Ross Rubin, Swing House also welcomes artists just starting out. Artists from all over the world and from all walks of life have laid tracks there and the studio shows no signs of letting up. As we said in the profile on our homepage, Swing House is a company that lives, breathes, and bleeds rock and roll.
They don’t just confine themselves to the studio either. Whether they’re throwing amazing parties at South By Southwest or diving first hand into the Sunset Strip Music Festival in Hollywood, Swing House is first and foremost about music.
Anyway, the most striking thing about their facility is just how amazing it looks. Descriptions don’t do it justice so we snapped a few photos of their rehearsal rooms, sound stage, equipment, and even their intimidatingly cool entranceway!
