Radium Audio Confirmed For Bottle Yard Studios

The creative audio company is based in south east London and launched its new Bristol production facility this week, marking its first venture outside of the capital.

Founded by Andrew Diey in 2007, Radium Audio is a music and sound team whose work has received awards including Emmy, Promax UK & USA, Cannes Lions and International Music and Sound Awards.

Robyn Taylor, Commercial Director at Radium Audio says: "We needed to increase our production capacity, and struggled to find the ideal space for expansion in London. We design and build our own instruments and create much of our sound source inhouse, so we need to be able to make some noise and a bit of a mess sometimes too.

"The Bottle Yard presented a very viable option for us for a number of reasons; Bristol's close proximity to London makes it logistically easier to manage the two locations compared to somewhere further afield, the area has a vibrant creative community with a great local talent base we can draw upon, and the Bottle Yard's management has offered excellent support throughout our design, fitout, and setup process."

Mr Taylor continued: "We've occupied a 3,600 sq ft footprint which includes several electronic production studios, a live studio, sound creation lab, Foley prop and performance area, and several bespoke sound processing and edit work areas on which work is close to finalised. We've brought on board four recent hires into newly created roles at our Bristol operation with more to come. We're really looking forward to moving our craft forward in the new studios, now that we have the increased space, facilities and team that we needed."

Fiona Francombe, Site Director of The Bottle Yard Studios, says: "We're delighted to welcome Radium Audio to their new home at The Bottle Yard. The calibre of their cutting-edge audio work is of the highest possible standard, pushing boundaries and winning critical acclaim internationally. We're proud to have played a part in attracting them here to Bristol, a city with an already outstanding reputation for audio post production services. This is the third new tenant to sign with The Bottle Yard Studios since the Summer and it's fantastic to see the profile of our production hub develop with each new addition."
