Saltlands Studio

Saltlands Studio is a recording studio based in New York City neighborhood of Dumbo, Brooklyn, founded in 2007 by owner Steve Salett and partners Dawn Landes and Gary Maurer.[1] It was later joined by music producers and engineers Eli Janney, Jim Smith, and Aaron Rutledge. The studio gained notoriety with records by French Kicks,[2] Alexi Murdoch, Josh Ritter, The Soft Pack, Wilco,[3] Robbers on High Street, Obits, and the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players. The studio also functions as a collective of commercial composers, and in the spring of 2010 the studio received attention for the composition of the song that was awarded the Cannes Lions 2010 "Best Use of Music in a Commercial" Award for the Match.com commercial.[4]
