Saltlands Studio

Saltlands Studio is a recording studio based in the New York City neighborhood of Dumbo, Brooklyn, founded in 2007 by owner Steve Salett and partners Dawn Landes and Gary Maurer.[1] It was later joined by music producers and engineers Eli Janney, Jim Smith, and Aaron Rutledge. The studio gained notoriety with records by French Kicks,[2] Alexi Murdoch, Josh Ritter, The Soft Pack, Wilco,[3] Robbers on High Street, Obits, and the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players. The studio also functions as a collective of commercial composers, and in the spring of 2010 the studio received attention for the composition of a song that was awarded the Cannes Lions 2010 "Best Use of Music in a Commercial" Award for the Match.com commercial.[4]

In 2010, Larry Crane interviewed Dawn Landes of Saltlands. The article was featured in Issue No. 80 of TapeOp.[5] In March 2011, Janice Brown of SonicScoop interviewed Steve Salett and producer/engineer Gary Maurer.[6]
