Amplifying live music since 2012
ANNOUNCEMENT
To our wonderful Magnet community,
We regret to announce that, from 16 August 2024, Magnet will be going on hiatus.
After much reflection, consultation & planning, we have decided to close our Coburg North location permanently.
We will be on the lookout for a new location which will better suit our services, and better serve our clients. To put it simply, the Coburg North building was too large (and therefore expensive) to run, and did not have many amenities we would like to provide (such as air conditioning). Plus, zoning laws restricted what we could do here.
For now, we continue to offer recording & production services – please contact Di Drew at di@magnetmelbourne.com.au.
We will keep you updated with our movements. Until then, thank you for your support over the past 11 years, and for being a part of the Magnet world.
xoxo – Di and Ben
