Set to open in December 2024, the Carinthia Recording Company is located within the Destiny Lodge on Mt Snow in Vermont where it aims to offer a creative getaway for artists and producers. It is, perhaps, one of the only ‘slopeside’ studios in the world being accessed by skiing/snowboarding directly in and out of the property.
The work of friends and long-time musical collaborators Peter Hackel and Morgan Dorr, the facility is calling on the talents of REDIacoustics co-founder PK Pandey for acoustic optimisation in its control room.
‘It’s such a unique place and it’s very exciting to transform it into a thriving creative space for musicians,’ says Hackel. ‘We both have long standing relationships with PK and his businesses AVN | SYS and REDIacoustics, so involving him in this project was a natural step.’
The 7,000sq-ft facility makes the most of the infrastructure of The Destiny Lodge, a comfortable luxury resort oozing warmth and character. Each of its rooms are intended to complement its new role as a versatile recording space as well as an operational ski lodge.
‘We have come full circle,’ Pandey says. ‘Peter and Morgan recorded at my studio over 20 years ago, and now we are teaming up to create one for them. What they envisioned was a comfortable space that felt like a creative home for them. Expanding it to others by creating a full-featured control room with top-level acoustics and equipment will enable them to extend that creative hospitality to other artists and producers.
‘We’re honoured to be involved in such a special project and can’t wait to showcase this incredible studio when it opens later this year.’
