Red Lamp Studio
The music of Homeless Balloon is recorded in Red Lamp Studio. Below are the tools and instruments Helge Krabye have been using when creating
music during the years. Many of these instruments have been sold and replaced, and software
instruments are definitely taking over in the studio. However, his acoustic instruments,
Alembic electric bass and Fender Strat will never be replaced - he loves them
too much ;)
