What you should know about Stebbing Recording Centre
Since its formal inception in 1946, Stebbing’s recording and music production business continues to be a significant part of New Zealand’s music history from the days of 78 rpm shellac recording to the age of the CD, the DVD and the digital download. One of the most famous was by US jazz swing legend Artie Shaw who was here on tour in 1943. By the end of the war in 1945, Eldred and his new bride Margaret had committed their working lives to recording music. Early in ’46 they started their first studio at their home in Methuen Rd, Avondale.
Eldred and Margaret recorded music of many genres in their Methuen Rd studio, in community and school halls and in musicians’ own homes. They recorded sound for weddings and recorded commercials for radio, via a telephone link to their studio. By 1950 Eldred had established his second studio in the Pacific Buildings in Queen St, Auckland city, extending the couples’ enterprise to manufacture 78 rpm shellac records from their pressing plant in Great North Rd, Grey Lynn. By 1959 the Stebbing family had moved into Saratoga Ave in Herne Bay central Auckland, establishing their famous basement studio beneath their family home the following year.
From 1965 to 1967 Stebbings ran their live music nightclub venue marketed as the Galaxie Lounge in a building where Auckland’s Downtown Centre now stands at the bottom of Queen St. The 1970s saw Stebbing’s boldest expansion to date with the establishment of their purpose built music and commercial studios in Jervois Rd, Herne Bay. By 1998 Stebbings was manufacturing CDs for all the major record labels for the domestic and international market. The move into the digital age is a complement to Stebbing’s ongoing CD and DVD production, and the requests of the few bands yes, some bands still want cassettes who want their product recorded, mastered and packed in cassette shells. For almost 70 years, Stebbing has stayed true to its commitment of producing a recorded sound that re creates the experience delivered by its musicians. Be it an in club environment, a studio, or an orchestra pit the Stebbing team pride themselves on their versatility to produce product that makes for the best possible listening experience no matter the genre or medium outputted
