La Fabrique, Recording studio and media facility in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France
La Fabrique is a recording studio housed in a renovated farmhouse dating to the early 19th century in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. The space integrates stone walls and traditional rural architecture with modern recording equipment, creating a private and soundproofed environment for artists.
The farmhouse dates to the early 19th century and was originally used for producing dye from madder plant. The building was later transformed into a recording studio and opened in 2008 by sound engineer Hervé Le Guil.
La Fabrique serves as both a recording space and creative retreat in a historic farmhouse setting. The owners' approach reflects a philosophy of authenticity, where the preservation of the building's original character coexists with the needs of contemporary artists working there.
The facility provides accommodation with 14 bedrooms and access to grounds featuring a pool and park for breaks between sessions. The location works best for extended stays, allowing musicians to focus on work while having space to rest and recharge.
The studio houses a collection of over 200,000 vinyl records from the library of former music critic Armand Panigel. This archive is among the world's largest music collections and remains accessible to visiting musicians and researchers working at the facility.
