+1. In fact how the shit does that even work? The chair is under the desk and those speakers are far field in a tiny, untreated room?

It isn't as complicated as you're trying to make it, any human with a hand or two could pull the chair out and sit on it!! They have more proper chairs there but probably they took it out for the photo and that tiny chair could be just for the guests.

While the room isn't huge, it surely isn't tiny. Probably those giant speakers give you that impression. Lastly how do you know the room isn't treated? In fact from the look of it you can tell they built one treated room within another room and there you go that's the second reason why the room might look small while it really isn't.

Studio pics for The Blizzard. Nice and simple. I get the impression that the V-Synth is new, and hasn't been used in any of their previous productions. Kind of thinking I might want to check the V-Synth out. The demos on the Roland site sound very nice, especially pads.

Blizzard(Tore) used to make all his sounds with virus in Sonar but i dont know anymore as he moved from Oslo. Remember trying some of his gear before I got into production any serious, he had some fucking awesome projects going on some years ago, wish he would continue with that style instead of what he is doing now. Super-talent.

at the time i knew him a bit he never finished a song but the samples i got was some really funky techtrance kinda stuff, abit like early marco v but with a little more melody and crazy baselines, wicked effex and stuff. if i see him on msn again ill ask if i can post them caus i still have the samples. awesome stuff.

Anyone else notice the lack of room treatment in alot of these, the stuff that everyone on here swears is a must have? I also noticed 2 world class porducers (D.Ramirez and Funkagenda) don't have treatment in their studios either. Just an interesting observation.
