Nemo Studios was a recording studio in London, planned, built and used by Greek composer Vangelis between 1975 and 1987.[1] Numerous highlights of Vangelis' career were composed in Nemo, including soundtracks for Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, and Hugh Hudson's Chariots of Fire (the soundtrack for which he won an Oscar).
Vangelis' equipment included more than 20 synthesizers and acoustic keyboard instruments,[1] as well as numerous percussion instruments.
The studio was located on the second floor of the former Hampden Gurney Primary School building.[2] Brian Jackson (actor) owned and ran several TV production and international distribution companies from his photographic, film & recording studios at the Hampden Gurney Studios[3] complex near Marble Arch.[4] The building no longer exists.[4]
