Eight months ago I visited Brandon (Monk) at Monkwood Studio. He’s an artist, a studio desk legend who has built desks for famous musicians and producers like Ryan Tedder, Justin Paul, Tori Kelly, James Hetfield, and many others. Brandon built me a desk which will become the center of my studio. Studio redesign video coming soon.

i'm an autobody guy almost my whole life,, (i'm 55 years old),but i've always liked working with wood, it's cool what this guy is, doing, i get my inspiration from the same things, super cars and scifi space craft, i recently got a mixing board and had nowhere to put it, so i built it a little 64' X38" desk with parts from a crib, an broken 80" tv,a bunch of plexi glass ,ikea bed ,and some scrap pallets, all being trashed, so all i paid for was fasteners and glue, but it looks like something studio desk might build for a star wars movie set
A true gifted Craftsman doing what his vision brought forth. " Each desk is an Instrument..." well said!
Wow, that’s a piece of art anyone will be proud to own in their music studio! You are going to enjoy producing and creating music at this desk for years to come. I’m jealous!
Yes, its amazing! Can't wait to show you all how it looks in my studio!
@@SanjayC I love this desk. What's the name of the desk you bought?
Looking at the desks just sparks creativity already.
I agree!
THIS IS THE MOST GORGEOUS DESK!!!!
Can’t wait for you to reveal your🔥new desk in another video! Till then, I love this video sooo much! Especially your music, ohhh those vocals😍 and the way you put his story together! It was amazing meeting and now becoming friends with Monk! He is so talented, has a great heart and it’s just soooo inspiring to see his work and hear his stories!!! Wow! Can’t believe I could witness this meeting! ♥️ You’re an excellent interviewer! Ok I have so many compliments for this one for both of you! Lol. Now it’s your turn to pay me one! Hahahaha
Thanks. Yes, he's an amazing guy and these desks are just gorgeous!
The way you gas Sanjay up in all of his videos makes me so happy. Love how supportive you are!
You gotta give yourself credit for some nice video as well!!
@@lachlanrussell18 LOLLL I'll always be his fan first before his wife! Also, that's what a built-in wifey-cheerleader is for, am I right?! And thank you for that kind comment! Appreciate your support!
@@varunnarayanan3477 See?! Now that's nice someone noticing your work! LOLLL THANK YOU! I mostly played around though!
So, is no one talking about the "Jaws" reference on the wall?
There's a big shark about to swallow the fire extinguisher in the back during the sit down interviews. By far one of the best things I've ever seen...
Bought my Monk Desk years ago, he’s the man ! A true artist and great dude ! Truly one of a kind ❤️❤️
Absolutely...such a great guy and amazing artist! Which desk did you get?
Iconic video!!! ... Sanjay c. Wow
Thanks, man! The desks are beautiful, aren't they?
@@SanjayC bruh yes they are !!💎🌶🔥🔥🔥
This is definitely one of my favorite videos on your channel. I came back to it because last spring I had a custom studio desk made for me, and the feeling of having a well made piece of furniture from pro woodworkers is indescribable. They are very good at what they do, but I was its first customer to request a studio desk, and they really came through. The emotion captured in the video is close to my own when it was delivered. Again, thanks for inspiring, and thanks to the crafters who rock!
Yes, thanks to the crafters - you can feel the energy they put into these desks!
I'm glad someone finally did a video on Monk I've been drooling over his desks for years and ended up building one modelled after his work but definitely no where near as good as what Monk makes!
Yeah, I had searched for videos about Monkwood for a while. That's part of the reason I really wanted to make this video. Such a great guy, too!
@@SanjayC yeah, truly an inspiration!
An artist !!
Thank you CJ !
Even for the trip in California !
Yeah, it was amazing to see everything in person
Beautiful work, and great energy on your love of doing it.
I love the sit/stand option. Thanks for sharing this story - your keyboard tray design helped me see how I can optimize my current “ikea-ish” setup to work better!
Thanks! Monk said he uses sliders from a file cabinet for the keyboard drawer because they are very heavy-duty.
Sanjay C that makes great sense - and they’re easy to find in used/thrift store file cabinets - thanks, Sanjay!
Wow! I want one !!!
Thank you for documenting this and showing his beautiful work.
Hey Adil. Yeah, it was a very special experience. The story and relationships behind it all is even more meaningful to me. I love sharing that.
Yessssssss that's amazing.. I made my sorta studio desk out of leftover wood and it was the best..
Good for you. Like he said in the video, you can make it yourself. You just need a place for your creativity.
wow ! 🙂 Thank you for this great video !
Amazing artist! Can't wait to see it in your studio and see the creativity it inspires!
Next week!!!
Fly over here and see it in person!
WOW ! I love this video and the desk is beautiful 👏👌👍excellent work !
Yes it is!
Wow. This is something that people don't even think about. Usually if it's a table or shelf system that holds up everything that's all people think about. I think your the only one to post an interior design aesthetic of a home studio. Have you ever done a video on what your studio actually consist of? I know you do product descriptions so I just assumed you have every gear known to man in a warehouse for equipment. 👍
Ah...that's coming next week. The full setup revealed in my studio with all the gear explained! :-) Can't wait to share with you all.
@@SanjayC Hey, have you heard of the Samson MIDI controller? I was looking for one that has a MIDI out and that one does and comes with Komplete Control from Native Instruments but no mention if it comes with Ableton which was the sticking point. I'm not sure if Ableton doesn't come with it or it just wasn't mentioned as it says it works with all DAWs.
It's here! - Well almost, can't wait to see the follow up :-)
Yes. Next week is the new studio reveal! :-D
@@SanjayC oh YESS can't waitt
Hey Mick! I was wondering. Are there any special things I should definitely tak into account when designing an under-desk shelf for my keyboard? Do you use some kind of locking mechanism when the shelf is maximally extended (I'm thinking magnets?)
Your work is beautiful form of art, you both really made my day. Keep it up! Greetings from Poland ;)
Aleksy Wnęk I’m not the maker of these desks, sorry!
@Aleksy Monk, the desk artist in the video told me that he uses rails that are made for large filing cabinets for the keyboard drawer. So they are very heavy duty.
Dope! Truly inspiring. He is a real deal artist. One of those has my name on it.
Yes he is. Get it get it!
Wow, his work is beautiful! I wish I could afford one of his pieces of art!
Monkwook Desks are beautiful! Great story 😃
Thanks!
I need all black in red trim desk like this one. Dope
Very cool. Good to see the behind the scenes of the craft, creating the right environment for creation. Great perspective on what's necessary vs what's cool and expensive ✊😎
Yeah, he has a great attitude. I like when he said, "You don't need any of this." You just need a small space to create.
@@SanjayC that was the part that got me as well. I mean I see this man who creates studio furniture for legends yet from the looks of it he has a humble workshop and suggests going to Ikea for the legs of a plywood topped workstation! He comes across as "in touch" on more than one level. I really appreciate this video, thank you. Can't wait to see your creation station. 😎
You totally get it. Love that man. Keep that realness.
OMG! it's awesome.. 😍😍
Yes, it is. Amazing artist, isn't he?
@@SanjayC S, bro. He's awesome
What a timing to see this video. I am making my own studio desk and this gives me inspiration and ideas to do it better.
Nice! I like to hear that. Good luck and let me know how it turns out!
@@SanjayC I will. Thank you.
Fantastic work. Never heard of this place. Would probably never be able to afford any of these desks in my entire life, but.... lovely work. Perfect.
Yes, its not for everyone's budget, but I love what he said...."You don't need this, you don't need anything but a small space for your creativity." Its that type of attitude that really drew me to this guy's work.
🤩 🤩 wow
Wow! Those are gorgeous. I’m drooling 🤤
Haha! I know what you mean!
Two incredible talented persons on one screen.
This puts a smile on my face
Thank you! He has such a great attitude, right?
@@SanjayC yeah..and I am excited for the studio reveal
Ok but that beat at the start???? The vocals are fantastic! When’s our next Sanjay single?!
Thanks! Just a random beat I never finished. My next goal is to release a bunch of songs. How is your Sunday?
I can’t wait! Undone has been on my main music playlist for ages. I actually genuinely love your style, independent of how much I appreciate your videos.
And for me, it’s actually Monday as of an hour ago! Having a good day though. Late birthday celebrations with the fam.
Nice. Keep the birthday celebrations going!
Exactly right!
That hot-rod desk looks sweet!
Yeah totally get the sports car feeling from it.
Sanjay C darn it! I watched this video and now I’m getting studio desk videos suggested....
Thank you very much UA-cam, but I already have a studio desk!
what a pleasant video today 👍
and I must get me one of those desks! (I will copy cat that elevator desk)
Thank you! You'll see more of my desk in next week's video (with all the gear in it)
I’m Inspired!!!!!
Beautiful work!!!!
Makes me want to create!
Wow dude, great video! One of my favorites I’ve seen from you.
Hey Patrick!! Thanks, man! How’ve you been?
@@SanjayC Great over here man. How bout yourself??
$65 in materials plus imagination and some TLC equals dream console.
Awesome
He's the man!
Have to say the fact you can stand or sit at your desk is awesome.
Yes, it makes a huge difference!
You are the best
Thanks, Taha. So are you! :-)
How strange that I've spent the past 2 days watching studio desk videos and now this pops up. Great video!
Wow! What have you been looking at?
@@SanjayC Just different ideas for inspiration when I build one in the coming weeks. Thanks for showing us this company. Their instragram is full of great content!
wowww
Such a beautiful video ❤️
Thanks! Its really the desks! :-) And the guy!
Such an amazing business! Can't wait to see the new desk/studio setup!!
Next week! Woohoo!
@@SanjayC I'll keep my notifications on!!!!
I'm drooling so much seeing those desks. I don't record that much I used to to, but from having career as SysAdmin and musician I'm used to be behind a desk with a computer. As a guitarist it was easy sit at my desk with computer and monitors. Actually I used a dining room table it was big enough for computers monitors and occasionally a small controller and play guitar.
Since playing keyboard 90% of the time now I would love a desk that would fit a 88 key controller as well as computer and monitors and etc. So one of those desks would be awesome the only other one I've seen someone have was a film composer who had a powered desk with a keyboard tray so she could work sitting or standing her monitor were on stands next to the powered desk.
Yeah these desks are amazing. Film composers always have the best stuff right?
Once media composer get established they can afford all the good stuff. I wish I could find someone who sells keyboard trays then I'd try to build a desk myself or get another dining table and attach a keyboard tray.
Dope bro, love Monkwood stuff! Great vid!
Yeah, I've been eyeing these desks for so long!
@@SanjayC congrats!
awesome desk
Yes he's a real artist
That is the MonkWood Turbo Deluxe SD88? I need that in my life!!!!
Yes, its one of the best he's made! I can't get enough of it!
@@SanjayC Need 1!
your wife is so so supportive
Definitely for people who have disposable income $6000 for a desk is bananas considering how much gear you can buy with that.
Very nice. Love the double keyboard trays.. that's a slick idea.
Thanks 👍
Awsome😍😍😍😍😍
HI Kavindu!
@@SanjayC hi sanjay!
Can't wait for your next video 😍
Yes that’s going to be epic!
@@SanjayC 😍😍😍😍
@@SanjayC did you buy the lounchpad ?
These are gorgeous, but soundesign is just as pretty and just a hair above half the price
Awesome pieces of art right here , stunning desks
🎉🎉YOU JUST HIT 100K !!!!🎉🎉
Those are beautiful desks!
Inspiring! DAMN!!!
Yes, he inspires me. How are you doing today?
@@SanjayC Today I am fine and really busy by thinking about a new flat and how to manage the acoustics inside of the studio room there. And really especially I am thinking about a new desk - with no more bad back again ;-) You are doing very well, I hope?
Get a sit-stand desk. It is really helping my back.
Get a sit-stand desk. It is really helping my back.
Sade style way to go!
Thanks! That's a real compliment! Love Sade
Nice track Sanjay!
Very cool!
Sorry for late comment!!!!!.....Nice video 😁😁😁😁😁😌😌😌😌😌bro
Hi Sphinx! How are you doing?
@@SanjayC bro..my movie work was going:)))).....
Guy is a genius 🙏🏿
Yes he is!
Damn👏❤️
:-) What are you working on today, XORAN?
@@SanjayC watched a couple of tutorials and then just stalked people on Instagram 🤔
Haha haha!!
Wow so inspiring 😍
Yes, I was inspired as well
❤❤
Hi BTM! HOw are you today?
@@SanjayC its a good day :)
I made a custom Desk for myself and it cost me less than 80$..! My productivity has gone up so much after that... I think its mostly because every time I get into my studio I am just happy with what my little room has become and that gets me Inspired.
That's all it takes - you loving the environment you work in. It makes such a big difference. Good for you for creating an $80 desk!
That looks awesome!
Yeah it’s beautiful!
Wow
Yes, he's amazing!
I'm impressed with that auto incline wow lmao sick
Really nice desks but beyond my budget 😩🤣
Something to aspire to! What do you use now?
@@SanjayC I'm currently using a desk that the wife bought me from a certain store, that I'm unable to remember right now. Has everything but a spot for a bigger keyboard, since I want to get the nektar 49 keys.
Great wood artist! So...how much is it?
Check out his website in the description. Some prices there
ME WANT!!!!!!!
Haha!
It's one of my dreams to have a desk like that.
Yes, its definitely a desk of my dreams as well. What do you use now?
@@SanjayC computer desk.
Yeah I did that for many years. From ikea
@@SanjayC beginnings are always humble
That's gorgeous! Way out of my price range though. However, I do work a bit with wood so now I have a couple of ideas. Maybe one day down the road.
Yes, price range is high, but the quality and workmanship is justified. Definitely a piece to save up for and the last desk you'll ever need.
I am now trying to find a electric sitting/standing desk for my studio. Do you have a recommendation under $1000?
Great video!
Thank you Ollie Cooke!
What cables other than midi keyboard go through all those holes on the extra shelf?
Wow...where do I begin? I have a power strip on the shelf...so all the power cables. I also tuck the slack of the audio and USB cables there. If you have a lot of stuff on the desk (like I do), it gets full very fast.
Ableton given some sounds in it but
How to add extra instruments sounds in Ableton ? Make a vedio on it plz
Here's a video about it: ua-cam.com/video/Ss-7ZtlHzi4/v-deo.html
love it
Thanks! Shoutout to Monk!
Notification squad slept a little longer today. Will be on time from next video 😍❤ . Awesome video sanjay. Hope you are okey now.
Hi Maslin! All good my friend. How are you?
@@SanjayC I'm good brother. Learning to produce country songs using the session guitars from komplete brother . That ultimate 12 has taken my production learning process to another level.
Woah! County songs. Nice!
What is your favorite from Komplete 12?
@@SanjayC i love the sampled instruments so much brother more than the synths that come with it. Example I always wanted to do orchestral music but never had proper samples.... Komplete just opened a new door with all those Ensampled instruments and percs.
It's just... So amazing. If I have to conclude with one statement about komplete 12 ultimate....
It's a ocean that has resources to produce every single genre of music that's ever heard by man.
Hey Sanjay, my song 'Counterfeit' is getting SIGNED to Wolfrage Recordings!
Wow! So cool! Congratulations! When will it be released?
@@SanjayC Unknown but hopefully in the next 3 months.
great stuff here folks! big love from Randy `w. H~orton here in KSA..
Awesome! Thank you!
Ooooh, so I think the pandemic started after your wife touched that desk, man! She needs to go and touch it again. ;-)
Hey Sanjay,I just wanted to ask that I already have a midi keyboard but without drum pads so what should I get??
Hey buddy. I really like Maschine drum pads, but if you want something cheaper, check out the Presonus Atom or even cheaper ones by Akai. But remember that you can play drums on your keyboard already. :-)
what was the total cost ?
Did I say I was jealous? 'Cos I sure am!
There will always be something to aspire to! :-)
@@SanjayC It's actually given me the impetus to build my own... It might take a while though!
So why does the actor Andy Garcia needs a music desk and some Neve 1073s?
I'm beyond curious.
He records his own music. I believe he has a band (Cuban music)
Is there any good store like this in india
14 hours late. Oh my!
Woah! super late today!
oh Man, this is an awesome desk!!! but it looks like they don t sell in europe...pity!!!
Yes, its a small business.
0:42 How everybody wishes there Wife was when she’s waiting for you in the car 😂 🤣
LOL
Someday...
Yes. And it will happen sooner than you imagine. Keep pushing!
Wow beautiful desk!! I've always wanted to ask you this. Do you master your own tracks? What do you think about the brainworx masterdesk from plugin alliance and what do you use to get that professional streaming ready sound when putting it out into the world?
Hi Kenji. Yes, I master my own tracks. I typically use Izotope Ozone to do it. For my Spotify release, I used Ozone. I've used Brainworx Masterdesk and the Masterdesk Classic version that UAD has. I like both of them, but I find that (because of my mastering experience level) Ozone is faster and provides better results for me. Masterdesk has a really nice stereo enhancer.
@@SanjayC Nice man!! Yeah Ozone is really good at that. I have ozone 8 elements. I just got the ssl 4000 E channel strip by brainworx(which sounds really good on drums) for $30 through a voucher and I can get another for $30. What do you think about the new plugin alliance shadow hills class A mastering compressor?
Can munk make studio desks for people in india????
Hi Sanjay,
I love your reviews on keyboards. Could you review the Studiologic SL88 Grand ?
I have read it is better than the Arturia Keylab 88 and Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S88 MK2 and closer to a real piano feel and would love to have your opinion on it.
Thank you
Sure...let me see if I can get one for review
@@SanjayC Thanks !
@@SanjayC There is also the Studiologic SL 88 Studio which is cheaper (around $400 www.studiologic-music.com/products/sl-studio/ ). I think it might be the equivalent of the Arturia Keylab 88 in terms of keybed while the SL 88 Grand may be more high-end.
Check out this mic: Antelope Mic Edge Duo
Ok will do
Sanjay can you help me,I have Yamaha keyboard psr s775 and I want to use it as a midi keyboard, later i download the driver but the driver refuse to install on my computer, Please Sanjay what will I do, i have hope in you please help please Sanjay C I will be happy if you help me thank you sir I love you
Sorry you're having trouble. If you can't install the driver, you may need a MIDI interface to connect it to your computer. I use the MOTU fastlane, but you can also get an audio interface with a built-in MIDI interface. See the Presonus Audiobox 96 or Focusrite 2i4.
Am using focusrite 2i2, and i bought 2 pin midi cable ( IN and OUT ) the upper is USB
Am using focusrite 2i2, and i bought 2 pin midi cable ( IN and OUT ) the upper is USB
WOW 🤩 That’s AMAZING!!! How much was your desk? I’m interested 😊
I love how u got it designed to move up. I also have back issues.
Hi Cach. Check the Monkwood site in the video description. Some prices there. FYI, if you're building your own desk, you can purchase sit-stand bases on Amazon!
i am gonna make a 3m desk for myself it wont be that pretty but it would be a long boi
Good for you! You can make a lot by yourself. Send me some pictures when you're done. What kind of keyboard are you going to put on it?
@@SanjayC oh well that's a project for next january it will be a computer desk actually with maybe an arturia mini mk2 and an Audiointerface.
Very cool!!
Nice. Keep me updated!
Sanjay bhai hame bhi bnwado
