There’s a specific kind of arrogance to Easy Sound—the kind that comes from knowing you have the best acoustics in Copenhagen and not needing a neon sign to prove it. Founded by the Lund brothers in ’74, the operation spent its infancy in Hellerup before graduating in 1982 to the old Triangel Teatret at Østerbrogade 70. You can still hear the theater’s skeleton in the recordings; there’s a height to the room that turned Mercyful Fate’s 1983 Melissa sessions into something architectural rather than just loud. By the time they wrapped Don't Break the Oath in May ’84, the studio had perfected a sort of 'Nordic clinical' sound—sharp, dry, and unforgiving. Then, in a pivot that usually baffles the leather-jacket crowd, Miles Davis moved in for the Aura sessions in early ’85. It’s a delicious bit of irony: the same floorboards that vibrated under Shermann’s Flying V were, months later, supporting the weight of a jazz deity. The walls didn't care about the shift in tempo; they just gripped the high frequencies with that same signature, chilling precision. It’s not a cozy room. It’s a machine for clarity.
