What btwn.us studios inc. does

btwn.us studios inc. is a Montreal-based private operator of DJ-focused physical spaces serving electronic music artists and creators. The company runs three distinct venues in downtown Montreal: The Lab (a futuristic four-deck practice studio with custom Pomelo Sound hi-fi and projection-mapped reactive visuals at 1088 Clark in Chinatown), The Apartment (a cozy living-room-style studio with full kitchen, multicam Blackmagic setup, and hi-fi sound at 65 Ontario O in Place-des-Arts, hosted within the DASA creative hub), and entre-nous (a 75-capacity private event space with a Danley-patented sound system and a 360-degree programmable DJ booth). All venues are equipped with club-standard gear — Pioneer CDJ-3000s, Technics SL-1200 MK2 turntables, and Pioneer/AlphaTheta mixers — enabling practice, jamming, recording, livestreaming, and small live events.

The company monetizes through three channels: usage-based hourly studio rentals (self-serve online booking), prepaid Studio Passes offering up to 40% off hourly rates as a recurring-revenue layer, and inquiry-based private event bookings for the entre-nous space. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the btwnus.studio website and an integrated scheduling link (getbtwnus.as.me), with a strategic hosting partnership with DASA Studio extending reach into Place-des-Arts. Marketing relies on the website, location-based presence in Montreal's creative districts, and community-level alignment with Red Bull Canada and STM Underground.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Beatport: Leading electronic music download and streaming platform serving DJs with tracks, charts, and tools. Operates broadly in the DJ ecosystem with overlapping audience but does not provide physical practice space or compete with btwn.us's core offering.
• Resident Advisor: Global electronic music platform covering events, club listings, reviews, and tickets. Operates broadly in the same DJ/electronic music ecosystem as btwn.us but as a media and ticketing layer, not a physical studio operator.

Others

• Pioneer DJ: Global leader in DJ equipment (CDJ players, mixers, controllers) and a key supplier of the club-standard gear used at btwn.us. An industry enabler rather than a competitor; equipment choices at btwn.us (CDJ-3000, DJM-A9) align with Pioneer DJ's product line.
• Mixcloud: DJ mix sharing and streaming platform popular with the same electronic music and DJ community that btwn.us serves. Functions as a community/discovery layer in the DJ ecosystem; not a direct competitor for practice space.
• Native Instruments: Major music production software and hardware maker (Traktor, Maschine, Komplete) widely used by DJs and producers. An enabling technology partner for the DJ/electronic music ecosystem rather than a direct competitor to btwn.us's studio business.
• Serato: Developer of Serato DJ Pro and related DJ software used by millions of DJs worldwide. Serves the same DJ practitioner audience as btwn.us but as a software tool provider, not a physical studio operator.

Direct peers

• Pirate Studios: UK-based company operating self-service music rehearsal, DJ, and recording studios with online booking. Operates an essentially identical business model to btwn.us — commercial studio space with club-standard gear, hourly rentals, and memberships targeted at DJs and musicians.
• Scratch DJ Academy: NYC-based DJ education and practice facility focused on teaching and equipping DJs with club-standard gear. Comparable to btwn.us in its DJ-specific focus and physical studio offering, though more education-weighted in its mix.
