About The House

We file the Articles

rock and roll forgot.

Studio Number Six is an investigative documentary house. We chase the records, the contracts, and the
witnesses — then we publish the case file.
Editorial Feed

A documentary house for the records that mattered.

SN6 was built on a single complaint: the most important stories in rock and roll keep getting handed to people who weren't in the room. Liner notes go missing. Producers die. Lawsuits get sealed. The official histories smooth over the parts that made the records dangerous in the first place.
We work the other way. Every dossier we publish begins with a session log, a deposition, or a tape no one was supposed to keep — then it gets reported, footnoted, and put on the record. The films do the same with footage. No host, no narrator, no gloss.

If the record changed the wiring of the room it
was played in, it deserves a case file. That's the
whole brief.
