3 Things to Know About Kate Bush’s Hounds of Love Studio

Kate Bush built a 48-track studio in a barn next to her family home in Kent. She spent two years recording Hounds of Love there.

She called building her own studio “the best decision I ever made.” The creative freedom directly shaped the album’s sound.

That barn studio gave us the “Running Up That Hill” and “Cloudbusting” run. Those tracks defined 1980s art-pop.
