Welcome to Antfarm Studio run by Tue Madsen out on the Djursland countryside in Denmark. You are all very welcome!

01 How i work — take it easy, talk straight

Every genre walks through the door.

All records welcome here — heavy, soft, weird, anywhere in between. The only thing that matters is whether the song is great.

Nobody stays a stranger.

— door is open. Just write.

Mastering

Studio rental · engineer yourself

Rent the room.

The studio can be rented with or without me — I can help out, or leave you to it. Up to you. Get in touch →

Take all of it, take parts of it, take one piece. Drum tracking only? Fine. Mixing a record someone else cut? Fine. Stems in the mail from across the world? Also fine. Whatever the record needs.

Wide view of the live room with vaulted beams and drum kit
Stacked cabs and drums in the live room

...More magic happens here!

05 Stay here — countryside

Antfarm sits out on the Djursland countryside in Denmark. You can sleep on site. Take time out to focus on the record, its almost vacation time.

Kitchen with a real stove. Coffee. Tea. TV when your ears tap out. Toilets that flush. Nothing fancy — it’s a studio, not a spa. And a garden that is better described as a park.

  • Coffee & tea, always on
  • Kitchen with cooking stove
  • Living room to watch TV / decompress
  • Toilets & shower
  • Quiet countryside outside the door
Where: Djursland, Denmark · out where the road goes quiet.
