Less than a week after it was announced that Just Blaze was closing down Baseline Studios, formal announcements were made today that the hit-maker for Jay-Z, Fabolous and Jay Electronica is moving his operation to Harlem, New York’s Stadiumred compound.
Located at 1825 Park Avenue, the sixth-floor studio presently houses engineers and producers responsible for over 15 Grammy Awards. Outfits such as Mix Engineer Ariel Borujow of Westward Music Group and Producer Sidney “Omen” Brown, who have worked alongside artists such as Kanye West, The Black Eyed Pees, Ludacris, Drake and Diddy.NOTE: Ariel’s has worked with Black Eyed Pees, Kanye, and Diddy as an engineer. Omen has produced for Drake and Ludacris and our other engineer Joseph Pedulla has engineered for Kid Cudi.
The studio was designed by Frank Comentale, responsible for designing such studios as The Hit Factory, Daddy’s House and Chung King. Besides recording, the facility contains high-tech rooms for mixing and mastering.
Prior to Stadiumred’s 2007 founding, the space was previously owned and used by Jazz legend Ornette Coleman.

Just Blaze reacted in a statement, saying, “I’m looking forward to setting up shop with the guys at Stadiumred. I’ve been in this business for 13 years and their vision and drive are the perfect compliment [sic] to what I look to build during the next phase of my career. I’m looking forward to creating something great with them. World domination coming soon!”
Just Blaze is presently at work with Jay Electronica and Eminem. There is still no word on the future of Baseline Studios.
