Oven Studios

Oven Studios is the personal recording studio of American Singer-songwriter and record producer Alicia Keys. Designed by the Walters-Storyk Design Group, the studio is located 186 Glen Cove Ave., Glen Cove N.Y. on the North Shore of Nassau County, Long Island, and features a grand piano and two isolation booths.[1] Keys says the building is reminiscent of her grandmother's house and has decorated the walls of the studios to include pictures of Nina Simone, Janis Joplin and Bob Marley.[2] Opened in 2005, Keys co-owns the studio with her production and songwriting partner Kerry "Krucial" Brothers.[3] According to Walters-Storyk, the design was important to the acoustics of the building:

"In the live room, the design specified special acoustic wood slotted with holes that was imported from Europe. This wood, which is 50% absorptive, played an important function in evening out the overall frequency response."[1]

gollark: They used (still use, I think?) Global Foundries for 12nm/14nm parts.
gollark: Intel, I mean.
gollark: It's been claimed that they were too aggressive, that they tried to do stuff without waiting for EUV technology to come along, that they just went down the wrong development paths, and probably a lot of otherr things.
gollark: Infinite scroll is an optional RES thing on there.
gollark: Old reddit doesn't have it and is superior.
