In recent years, the term electronic actually encompasses all manner of genres, approaches and subcultures. Starting a studio (or switching up your existing one) with this type of music in mind is perhaps the most plainly cost-effective way to get started. After all, we’re predominantly working within the realms of synthesis, drum machines, samples and processed vocals – all of which can be easily realised in the box. We’re keeping things under £500 here, and with that budget in mind, we’ve carefully chosen where you should be spending money, and what you can afford to lose.
