Trackdown Studios began its journey in 1972 when high school students Simon Leadley and Greg Creecy launched a small business called Delta Sound out of Greg’s parents’ living room in Sydney. Simon and Greg built amplifiers and speaker boxes from scratch, planting the seeds of what would become one of Australia’s most iconic audio post-production companies. By 1975, their love for music pulled them further into the scene—forming a glam rock band called Orion, and even deferring university for a year in the hopes of making it big. The band quickly folded, but the experience fueled their dedication to creating spaces where musicians could thrive.
