With over ten years of experience, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Hidden Chapel Studios Abhita Austin serves as a unique talent to the recording industry. Alumna of New York University’s Music Technology program, Abhita began her career in the late 90s at Quad Recording Studios in Manhattan. There she developed her craft while working with artists such as Christina Aguilera, Missy Elliot, Common and R&B legend Roy Ayers.
With the rise of digital recording at the start of the millennium, Abhita transitioned into freelance Pro Tools engineering. Working extensively with acts on the Warner Bros. urban label, Abhita recorded chart-topping artists such as Anthony Hamilton and Craig David. She has also recorded and mixed songs for the Grammy Award winning R&B group Product G&B.
Abhita’s list of satisfied clients continues to grow. Serving as Staff Engineer for 3 years at Sabella Recording Studios, Abhita “energized” the atmosphere as she expanded her musical repertoire.

Abhita is best known for her outstanding Pro Tools editing skills and is often referred to as “the Doctor” by many of her clients who liken the care and expertise that she applies to generating an exceptional product to that of a “professional healer.”
In 2008, Abhita expanded her creative vision and opened Hidden Chapel Studios, a boutique recording facility in the heart of Long Island. Hidden Chapel Studios provides a retreat atmosphere enabling artists and professionals to create in a low-stress environment.

Career Achievements:
The one that I just kick myself for is Macarena. We, Carmen Cacciatore, and I got Macarena signed. I found this little dance number, Macarena, in Seattle (with the help of Shelley Hart at KUBE). I delivered it to RCA. Carmen found a better mix from these Cats called the Bayside Boys in Miami). We were STRONGLY discouraged from the powers that be at the time, to not make any side deals. And, the label wouldn’t cut us in or make any deal with us at all as we were “promotion employees”. We were told “It wouldn’t be considered above board.” And, boy, did I learn a lesson from that. After bringing it to the label, and helping spearhead the campaign to deliver a #1 record resulting in the megamillions sold worldwide.
There are so many artist campaigns that I’ve been involved with, or created and directed over the years with artists emerging from all types of genres. As a local and regional for RCA I worked with most radio formats: Top 40, Rhythm Crossover, Rock, Alternative, Hot AC, AAA.
