Beacon AV Lab is a recording studio and audio/video production workshop located in Beacon, NY

Also offering tech services, instrument/gear repair, and more!

The AV Lab began as the personal project studio and creative workshop of Jonny Taylor (still known by many as 'Dex' from his days as part of Vic Thrill's band & creative collective in the early-oughts). After many iterations of equipment, capabilities and locations, a recent move to the Hudson Valley helped complete the formula for expanding beyond personal projects and offering recording and prod

Today is Bandcamp Friday - the last one of 2020 (and maybe ever). Lots of artists who have recorded at Beacon AV Lab have their music and merch up on Bandcamp - and today is a great day to support them as Bandcamp is waiving their revenue share all day so 100% of all sales proceeds go directly to artists.

The pandemic has been terrible for so many, and artists, musicians, venues and of course recording studios have been particularly hard hit. Supporting independent music through sites like Bandcamp is one of the best ways to help ensure artists can persevere through these tough times and keep making great music.

Dirt Bikes put together a great list of recommended bands to check out on Bandcamp, many of whom recorded their BC-released music right here at the Lab. Link in Bio - thanks for your support!

Stephen Clair’s latest album “The Small Hours” is officially out today. He tracked the album here at the Lab in early 2020 (“moments before the clampdown”) with on bass and on drums, and we mixed it remotely once stay at home orders took effect.

The Big Takeover says “This is the Stephen Clair album we’ve been waiting for. It perfectly displays the power of his songs and his solid-yet-dangerous trio” - and I won’t disagree! The album is available now on all streaming services, but I highly recommend buying the vinyl record, CD and/or digital download via to experience these recordings in their full glory, and support the artist while doing it 👍

Well, we've done it. Today the new record is out like a drop in the sea. It's in your hands now. I'm gonna go take a nap and when I wake up I'll see how many more of you ordered it. Then I'll make coffee and head to the PO. Thanks e'rbody. I couldn't have, and I wouldn't have done it w/o you.
Get yourself a copy and fast. Link in profile. Thanks
