HOME STUDIO

As the frontmanand songwriter for his rock project Electric Enemy, Lawton needed to upgrade his home studio to achieve the sound he wanted for the band’s self -titled debut album, set to release on April 21. The addition of the KRK ROKITs made an immediate difference for him. “One of the things I love most about them is that they tell me the truth about what I’m hearing,” Lawton explains. “Whether I’m producing rock, dance, or pop, the audio quality is immediately noticeable. What’s great is that they are able to handle all the different genres I work with.” Lawton’s roster of artists includes No. 1 charting artist Example, R&B and pop artist Jaki Graham, and rock artist Bang Bang Romeo, among others. With such a diverse range of clients, Lawton knew he needed studio monitors that could handle anything he threw at them. “The ROKITs are ideal because despite their smaller size, they still get the bass tones out clearly, which is crucial for dance, pop, and reggaeton,” he says.

The KRK ROKITs are not only versatile but also provide consistency, which is essential for Lawton’s work. “When tuned properly to your room with the KRK Audio Tools app, the ROKITs give you very clear highs without ‘control room syndrome,’ where everything sounds great because it’s super loud and bassy ,” he explains. Lawton’s work with Electric Enemy’s debut album is only the beginning, as he’s already begun production on the project’s second album. With the KRK ROKITs by his side, Lawton is confident that he can continue to create the sound he wants for his music. “There’s no denying that, for all my work, the ROKITs are by far the most important piece of gear in my home studio,” he says. For any musician, producer, or songwriter looking to upgrade their home studio, the KRK ROKITs offer versatility, consistency, and authenticity in voicing that can take your productions to the next level.
