UPRAWR Studios - Music Rehearsal Rooms Birmingham

I have been coming to this club for years and I still love It especially the themed nights gutted to see such bad reviews if you are going clubbing surely bring cash with you =P the music is always great and the people who work here and the people who come here are always so nice

The music is ever evolving and I'm always surprised every time I go.
I was a bit worried when Eddie's died that I'd only be left with pop punk in uprawr but the music is bold, the staff are cool and the audience DJ/audience participation, makes it seem like a holiday in Ibiza more than a rock night in Birmingham. Magic.

Drones have just set off for a mini tour this weekend, and we wanted to a squeeze in a quick rehearsal. Uprawr studios is one the best rehearsal studios iv been too hands down. Friendly staff and the rooms sounded great! Clean, and stage lighting to boot! More...

I left a review on my first time visiting but i’m gonna rewrite it for the sake of things. Recent times have saw Uprawr getting some heat in their reviews - which, might I add, are completely inaccurate - so here’s my take on things.

Uprawr is one of the best places to go on a night out for me personally - and yes, that is a particular opinion, not just because of the cheap drinks and excellent music. The whole point of Uprawr, to me, is a place where you can be yourself and rock out without having to care. I’ll say this from the outset - if you don’t like heavy music, moshpits, or if you care a little too much about social norm and conforming to expectation, Uprawr is not for you. If, like me, you just want to go all out and not have a care in the world while you headbang, air guitar, mosh, and drink with your closest friends and the community, come on down and make a bloody good night of it.

Some reviews mention a “sexualisation of women” and that just totally isn’t the case. Girls AND guys get to wear WHATEVER they want and there is no problem with it at all. The girls get to wear whatever they want, and there is no intent to purposefully sexualise them, not by a long shot. Men have worn EXACTLY the same things - I’ve seen three blokes in corset dresses with my own eyes - political correctness has no place at Uprawr and that’s one of the things that everyone loves! I attended last night’s St Trinian’s Party complete with skirt, knotted shirt and tie, and nobody cared because they were wearing exactly the same thing, and I even got compliments on my costume!

Now, the Uprawr community - one of the greatest communities i have had the pleasure of being involved in. Rocking out with strangers, making wonderful friends who i see on a regular occasion, and enjoying eachother’s company all night, all whilst being as carefree as ever. The community always band together and welcome new faces with open arms. The moshpits are always regulated and if ever someone falls over or ends up on the floor they are on their feet, picked up by complete strangers, in less than a second. Everyone looks out for everyone regardless of the fact that they may be complete strangers.

The staff are absolutely flawless and genuinely look like they love their jobs. Always on hand with a smile on their faces, even during busy nights, the staff have always got on with their jobs and remain some of the friendliest people in Uprawr. I cannot commend them enough, they are absolutely wonderful people.

The security cannot be faulted either, and are always making sure that things are running smoothly. The security always speak with respect, asking if i could be pat down before commencing and asking for a bag search with such respect and politeness. Conduct and communication with security has always been done on the basis of respect and I have often seen security members smiling, rocking out with the rest of us whilst doing their jobs, and making sure nothing goes amiss in the pits.

I’ve heard the traffic light stickers got some heat on twitter for the choice words emblazoned upon them - and for god’s sake, it’s only a bit of fun! Get off your soap boxes and stop being so sensitive - it does not affect the rest of Uprawr one bit and it is still a wonderful place, for rockers, for metalheads, for people who feel like they don’t belong, for people who think today’s music is absolute cack and would rather stick with something that makes a GOOD noise.

I love Uprawr and always will. I’ve never had a bad night there and made amazing mates along the way. And I won’t stop going. More...

Went here for the first time on Saturday and it was great! I'm from Sheffield so we have a night up here called Corp which is similar but 100% this is a better night for the sole reason that the playlist isn't from 2003.

10/10 would reccomend.

Just finished recording with Alex at Arkham...4 tracks in 3 days is no mean feat and was only possible given Alex's commitment and expertise. The cost is the best in the area, and given this and the quality of the end product I am not surprised that he is so busy!

Extremely highly recommended, thanks for everything dude!! More...

One of the better rehearsal studios I've been to. Staff were friendly and helped with gear. Great selection of food, drink, and equipment. Would definitely recommend.

Arkham studios is an outstanding recording facility based in the Madhouse rehearsal complex. Steered by muso genius Alex Cooper the quality is nothing less than outstanding. Expect an awesome product and take your songs here as you will not be disappointed. We are currently recording Corvus' debut album 'Chasing Miracles' at this studio with Alex at the head of production and at every turn he surprises us with yet another awesome idea to breathe life into music. You want an awesome song? Then you want Arkham :) More...

Alex, absolutely surpassed any expectation I had in regards to what i thought the results of my bands tracks would be. There are not enough words to credit him on his wisdom, work athics and passion he had put not only into the tracks as a whole but in adding a total new dimension to my guitar playing. Cannot wait to get the rest of my band Mallen's songs recorded and produced down at Arkham Recording Studios with the cooper aka Gandalf the black! More...

We cannot recommend Arkham enough. Just recorded our EP here and it is the best quality recording I have ever been involved in. Alex is a sonic genius and made my guitar sound the most punk rock it has ever sounded.
The finished tracks simply shine and have zero errors -testament to Alex's skill and quality control.
We will be back very soon. More...

We've just spent 3 days in the studio with Alex who managed to get a slick and polished 4 track EP out of us. I can't say enough about the set up and the guy.
The studio is great - a comfortable environment for a singer who has to sit about for 3 days listening to the rest of the band until its her time to step up and Alex is a guy who really really knows his stuff.
Really professional,really knowledgeable and great guy. Thanks for a great job and a great product. More...
