Now in its sixth year, the Music Producers Guild Awards
recognises the contribution made by recording professionals to the success of the UK’s music industry. This year’s event, sporting a new host (comedian Rich Hall) and a new venue after five years at the Café de Paris, once again highlighted the essential relationship between artist and recording professional, with many artists attending the ceremony to present their producer with an award. Steve Levine, chairman of the Music Producers Guild, said: “Our winners highlight the creativity that is inherent in UK music production, and when you look at the amazing work these recording professionals have done in the past 12 months it is no surprise that Britain’s recording talent remains the envy of the rest of the world.”
The complete list of winners and sponsors for the 2014 Awards is available on the MPG Awards’ website.
