Sweet Silence Studios was the leading Danish recording studio for rock music during most of its existence. It was originally built in Amager by Danish engineers Freddy Hansson and Stig Kreutzfeldt beginning in February 1976. Flemming Rasmussen was immediately hired as assistant engineer, who later became producer and main engineer, taking full ownership of the studio in 1999.[1][2]The studios relocated a short distance in the late 90s, sometimes being credited as "Sweet Silence Upstairs Studios" afterward, and closed in 2008. The building was demolished in 2009 to make way for an apartment complex and a car park.[3] Rasmussen then moved to Winding Road Studios in Copenhagen, where he stayed until opening Sweet Silence North in Helsingør in January 2015.[1]
