THE SPACE
Hidden in a
1926 Bank Vault.
Silkcrayon has been developed over five years with one question in mind: what does an artist actually need to do their best work?
The answer isn't just equipment. It's environment, energy, and someone in the room who genuinely understands where you're trying to go.
We're for the artist.

THE STANDARD
Music that moves people forward.
Silkcrayon operates a No Harmful Music Policy — not as a restriction, but as a standard. One we believe Cardiff's music scene deserves, and one that runs through everything we do from Silkfutures mentoring to Silk Records releases.
If your music is honest, if it has something to say, if you mean it — you'll fit here
We do not record music that glorifies violence, exploitation, or the degradation of others — regardless of commercial precedent.
We believe authenticity is the most powerful artistic force. Music made from a real place always lands deeper.
We ask every artist to complete a short values alignment form before their first session. This isn't gatekeeping — it's how we make sure we can genuinely help you.
We hold the same standard for every artist, from SilkFutures mentees to Silk Records acts.
Cardiff has produced exceptional artists. We want to be part of a scene the city is genuinely proud of.
