3 Chronicles Studio

Biography

I (Stuart Green) became interested in music from a very young age, and at age 9 I gravitated to an upright piano both my parents used to play, owing my whole interest in music to them. I later joined my high school band with guitarist and friend Noel Megan and veered off towards the bass guitar, rhythm guitar and drums, which I ended up playing for a while.

After leaving school I enrolled in an apprenticeship with Marconi Avionics during which time I went back to playing keyboards and joined two reggae bands, one from south London playing drums and piano, and the other from east London playing keyboards only.

The latter called Revelation released a single called With you boy becoming an instant hit in the reggae charts during the early eighties, eventually reaching number one for 5 weeks (with the “B side” reaching number four).

We continued successfully with top ten and twenty hit records, numerous radio and magazine appearances, releasing our first album simply called Revelation followed shortly afterwards by our second album Variation on a theme which created an interest from the Boney-M management team. After disbanding I joined forces with our drummer Gary Dixon and our production team/label called Satellite was born, with hits It’s a serious thing, Why did love die and our second number one hit Cruising man.

We later formed the group, M.B.S (mind, body and spirit) experiencing more success with a single called Out of the blue with singer/songwriter Oliver, and sung by my good friend, singer/ songwriter and guitarist Gavin Llynch who I eventually joined up with forming a co-writing production team releasing hit singles Day dreaming and I really miss you gaining huge success on radio coupled with a music video shown on Sky TV.

Brotherly love

During the late eighties & early nineties I began co-writing with my two brothers Tony (who came up with our studio name), and Stephen Green who (along with Gavin) was really supportive of my musical career while developing their song writing techniques. At this stage my life took a new and amazing direction accepting Jesus Christ, which influenced my style & motive towards music. Bending an ear now and then to the gospel genre was compelling, opening up a whole new world!

Producing

Producing, writing, scoring, composing, arranging, mixing and programming became a huge part of my life during the late eighties to date, due to the ever emerging and advancing computer age, which I found a difficult transition with my ethos of ‘keep music live’ held close to my heart.

Until I was taken up to the West End by my brothers and friend Chris Webber to visit theTurn key music store.

Kicking and screaming all the way there & after dragging me in by my stubborn heals I’ve never looked back since!

A whole studio and band in a box! WOW!

No more arguing at rehearsals, record and re-record at a push of a button, throwing ideas down without having to call band members together (whether they turned up or not), chopping and changing, experimenting, shaping, creating music with exactly the same equipment used in professional studios!

My word! It was overwhelming and still is to this very day! Hence the computer revolution was here to stay.

But of course it has to be said there’s nothing like getting together a group of singers and musicians vibeing off each other while creating original music!
