STUDIO 1

The Bignote philosophy is about balancing the technical aspects of modern recording with the reason why you came…its all about the song, the creative process, you the artist and the Bignote team of producers, arrangers and musicians who can help you musically explain your vision of a great song.
Our Pro Tools Digital Audio multitrack hard disk recording system, outboard gear and associated software produces broadcast quality recordings every time under the fingertips of Chief Engineer, Adrian Stuckey and our four  recording spaces offer acoustic variations to suit the requirements of any project.


Adrian Stuckey
The founder of Bignote Productions, Adrian cut his teeth in N.Z., performing live at the tender age of 14. A Pro Tools devotee, Adrian was fortunate to develop his engineering and production skills throughout the digital audio revolution during the 80's and 90's. This has given him a well rounded insight into both analogue and digital domains and his technical skill and speed never ceases to amaze clients. This man rocks on guitar and keyboard, bass and drums, composes string and brass lines to die for and is affectionately known to his friends as "phatman jive".

Adrian's client list include: Split Enz Neil Finn, Tim Finn, Eddie Rayner, Warner Records Aust, E.M.I, Fox Studios, Suzanne Lynch (Neil Sedaka/Cat Stevens), Proton Films, I.R.U (International Rugby Union), T.V.New Zealand Idol, Jonah Lomu, Sony Music, Peter Urlich, Toni Janke, Ponamu, Mahara Tocker.
