The Fridge Studio

Fridge Studios advertisment. Designed by Bryce Galloway of Wendyhouse and Hitlers Cock

The Fridge was Contact 89FM's recording studio, but was also used by a plethora of bands. Bands to record albums and live to airs on Contact at the Fridge included Grok, Nodrog, Hand of Glory, Big Muffin Serious Band and an incredible number of others. The Hamilton compilation CD The Fridge was entirely recorded in the studio. The desk was 8-track analogue and the room was actually an old industrial fridge, with no windows and complete with big fridge doors.
