Studio is a Swedish music project founded by Dan Lissvik while studying at the Valand School of Fine Arts in Gothenburg.[1] The project later expanded to include Rasmus Hägg as well as collaborators Jesper Nordblad, Dieter Hallén and Oskar Johansson.[2]

Studio have been described as the missing link between The Cure and Lindstrøm – while simultaneously touching upon Can, Neu, Happy Mondays and The Smiths – in their creation of an "afrobeat-dub-disco-indie-pop" adventure. Their debut album West Coast was originally released in 2006 and was reissued by Ghostly International in January 2025.[3]
