Local recording business secures BG Effect Funding

Steelhouse Productions, incorporating Steelhouse Education, also offer technical enrichment workshops in a variety of educational settings, to enhance standards digital competency and impart their knowledge and understanding of the principles of sound whilst enabling participants to gain hands-on experience in audio production and sound design.

Dean Richards and Jordan Day-Williams who decided to go into business partnership, have both recently completed their degrees in Sound Engineering at the University of South Wales and are keen to tune their passion for music into an innovative local business. They are both looking forward to providing quality recording and audio duplication from their in-house production facility and offering a unique customer care experience from booking a recording to receiving the final recorded product.

Dean and Jordan said “We are extremely grateful to BG Effect for all of the support and guidance we have received over the past year. The grant has enabled us to purchase essential CD duplication and printing equipment which has given our new business venture the best start possible and will help to ensure the future success of our business.”
