On Air Ottawa · Ontario CBR · JKGPC Inc.

A small house for records. Built by working engineers.

We produce, deliver, and develop a short list of artists we can actually serve — in the country's best rooms, or wherever the record needs to live. Masters kept by the people who made them.

01 — The Label

Built for records. Not volume.

Caber Studios is a boutique independent label and music production company. We cut records where the music lives — in the country's best tracking rooms, in a client's home studio, in a chapel, on a stage. Our engineer travels. Our gear travels. The record gets made where the record is right.

Then we handle the label work that scales a release past a SoundCloud upload. No retail calendar. No influencer budget. No volume roster. A short list of artists, a long horizon, and masters that stay with the people who made them.

DJ PERKi

Electronic — Resident DJ

Up-and-coming Ottawa DJ and producer building a club-forward body of work. House DJ across multiple venues in the city. Caught the label's ear at the October 2025 Rainbow Bistro showcase, co-presented with Raven Street Studios.

Debut releases through 2026 — the first step toward a profile on the national funding registries, and a catalogue that scales on its own terms.

03 — Any Room

Built to travel.

James is TARA-trained on a professional console — and just as capably behind a mic kit wherever the music actually lives. We go where the record needs to be made. The gear comes with us.

Studios are sometimes the answer. They aren't the only one.

Primary Tracking

Raven Street Studios

Ottawa, ON · Est. 1992

Ottawa’s largest and oldest recording complex — founded in 1992 by Breen Murray, now owned and run by his daughter Shannon Murray Mead, and home of The Audio Recording Academy (TARA). James cut his first single here at sixteen and trained on the Audient ASP 8024 — it’s where his Ottawa sessions track.

Clients include Avril Lavigne, Snoop Dogg, Queens of the Stone Age.

Production — Toronto

Banquet Sound

Toronto, ON

Toronto production house led by Nixon Boyd — Juno-nominated producer and former lead guitarist of Hollerado, with credits including Dizzy, Anyway Gang, and “A Little Bit Alexis” from Schitt’s Creek. Nixon produced James’s singles Blink, Laugh Again, Complicated, and No Place to Go at Banquet Sound and his Simcoe Mechanical studio. Our Toronto production partner and the gateway to the broader Canadian indie network.

For projects that want big-room production and a seasoned producer's hand.

05 — Friends of the Studio

People in the orbit.

Not signed, not staff — musicians and makers we share rooms and stages with around Ottawa, who wear the mark because the work is good, not because anyone told them to.
