About SoundLab
From the heart of Dubai, Soundlab is the go-to space and online platform for enthusiasts seeking the latest in electronic music gear and expertise.
Born from the passion for music and sound, SoundLab is a childhood dream project by Hakim and Yassine founders of Raw Music Store to own their own music production haven and experiment with sounds, melodies, and studio gear.
We have built this space to be an experience cave for music lovers, musicians, producers, and anyone curious about how music is made and enjoyed.
Our love for vintage sound made it necessary for us to display some of Hakim’s vintage synthesizers collection and make it available for visitors to test, play and record.
