Turnkey Creative Solutions
for a Professional Clientele
The Refined Approach to
Composition, Recording & Post at
Montreal’s Lamajeure
By Andrew King
A
fter opening its doors for busi-
ness in 1984, it didn’t take long
for Lamajeure to develop a rep-
utation as one of the top audio
recording and production facili-
ties in Montreal – a reputation that the studio
maintains to this day despite the aggressive
ebb and flow of the industry surrounding it.
In fact, its stature in creative and corpo-
rate circles is one of the few things to remain
unchanged throughout Lamajeure’s nearly
35 years of operations.
Originally founded by professional mu-
sician Sylvain Lefebvre, the studio was rooted
in music recording and production for its first
few years of operations; however, as the land-

scape of professional recording facilities has
shifted significantly in the years since, so too
has Lamajeure’s array of integrated services
and overall approach to business.
Currently, the creative hub at 1110
Bleury St. in Montreal’s downtown core
specializes in advertising, interactive media,
and original music and voiceover recording
for a diverse and ever-expanding clientele.
This entails service offerings ranging from
music composition and recording for film,
television, gaming, and commercials to ad
production, French versioning, TV distribu-
tion services, and beyond. Of course, they’re
always happy to return to their roots and
track pop or indie music when the opportu-

nity presents itself, too.
Through its ongoing evolution towards
creating turnkey solutions for clients in
the advertising, TV and film, and corporate
spheres, Lamajeure has seen the size and
success of its operation swell to the point
that it now boasts a team of 30 full-time pro-
fessionals, ranging from project and account
managers to mixers and technicians to com-
posers and more.
What’s perhaps most impressive,
though, is that they’ve done it amidst a try-
ing time in the industry that hasn’t been as
kind to some of their peers and competitors
on the national landscape.
Here’s how.
