Ambush Recordings was rated one of the best studios around Chicago to get noticed. Ambush is perfect for gigs, radio, management, and label submissions. Full length albums on a budget is also highly recommended. The studio is conveniently located just off I-94 in the Winnetka/Glenview area.

Dear Jim,
We would just like to thank you again for your time and quality work. We will definitely be referring you to other bands we know. Ironically enough, after I left the studio yesterday night, I came home and opened an email I received from One Minute Records stating they will be coming to our next show to discuss possible "signing". That would be nice. It would also move us one step closer to our goal of GLOBAL DOMINATION! Anyways thanks again, keep in touch and don't forget to add me to your mailing list.

Jim, you're one of those people we just instantly clicked with and really understood each other. Rare to find! I appreciate all the hard work and fine tuning you are doing with the track.

Jim,
My cousin Shawn from Asleep at the Javelin suggested I contact you about recording at your studio. My band is North of Eight and we are currently shopping for a studio to record our demo/album at. I listened to the recording of Glacier Rider by AATJ that you did, and I have to say, I've never heard them so clear and well put together. Nice work.

Hey Jim,what it is? The CD sounds KICKASS man, you did a killer job brother. Thanks for being there for us."You had us at hello".
Steve & Gus, District63
Hey man, just wanted to send you a quick "thanks again" for all the hard work the last couple days. Totally great experience for the band, and we'll for sure pass the word around about your skills to other bands and stuff. I'll be in touch.
Thanks a million
Ari, Reptiods
Hey whats up Jim? This is Josh from On The Front. The band has been very happy with your work to date. Like we talked about on the phone, sometime at the end of September or early October would be a great time for us to get back in there and record again. We also if possible like to take it up a couple notches in the recording process, with your help of course. We are looking for a sound that we know you can help us achieve. We have gotten great exposure and opened a lot of doors from the first two demos done with you. Now it is time for the next step as a band and with your help and your studio we can get the product we want. I will talk to the guys tonight at practice and try to get a date. Also, we have some demos of the songs we will be recording. Hopefully you could listen ahead of time and make any suggestions about them before we get to the studio. Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jim and we will be getting back to you very soon.
Josh, On The Front
Hey Jim- just wanted to thank you again for the excellent job you did with our CD. We've been getting a ton of positive feedback about the recording! We've been dropping the Ambush studio name all over the place.
Thanks again!
