History

The first official incarnation of Pet Sounds Studio was created around 1997 after Schneider moved his recording equipment from Jones's residence to friend and ex-Apples member Jim McIntyre's residence at 1170 Elati Street. The studio in the house was decorated with detailed murals painted by
The Apples in stereo's Tone Soul Evolution, Her Wallpaper Reverie, The Discovery of a World Inside the Moone and Velocity of Sound, as well as early singles for McIntyre's solo project Von Hemmling
and many other albums from the Elephant 6 collective and the 1990s indie scene.
