Stain Studio

Stain Studio is a Bulgarian music company dealing with audio and video production and concert management. It was founded in May 1999 by Gospodin "Gepi" Gospodinov and Kliment Kalev, two Bulgarian musicians who decided to create and run a studio of their own in order to record the firstt album of Gepi's band, Stain.

Many albums with high sound quality were produced at Stain Studio, including:

  • Sepuko 6 - Cultivated
  • Crowfish - Requiem for a Broken Heart
  • Millennitta - Do It Again
  • Cigaretta - 14 songS
  • Fyeld - Fyeld
  • The Revenge Project - The Dawn of Nothingness

In 2000, Stain Studio started working on video production as well. Stain Studio's crew has shot and produced music videos for a large part of Bulgaria's contemporary music scene, including:

  • BTR - "Igrata" (играта, the game)
  • Ostava - "Shokolad" (шоколад, chocolate)

Stain Studio has two professional audio recording rooms and a green box video hall, with a total area of more than 300 square meters.

Stain Studio broadened its range of activities in 2002 when a decision was taken to not only produce albums, but to release and distribute them as well. About a dozen bands and solo performers have signed a record deal with Stain Studio, including Crowfish, Cigaretta, The Revenge Project, Fyeld, Last Hope, Ostava, Sepuko 6 na Svetlyo Zhilev. Stain Studio has the legal rights to sell not only its own releases, but also to distribute the works issued by No Way Records, Years of Pain Records, Positive Thoughts Records and Freecore Records in Bulgaria.

In 2003, Stain Studio began arranging bigger concerts for some of the best-known bands in Bulgaria. The company's crew has promoted sold-out live performances by Ostava and Millennitta (2003 and 2004, 3,000 visitors in total), Last Hope, Stampin Ground and Backfire (2003 and 2004, 2,000 visitors in total) and Sodom (2004, 3,000 visitors).
