The Music Producers Guild Announces its 2019 Awards Winners

dimanche 3 mars 2019, 20:55 , par Digital Pro Sound
A
host of music industry VIPs and celebrities filled London’s Grosvenor House last
night for the 2019 Music Producers
Guild Awards – an annual event that recognises the creativity, skill and
talents of music recording professionals.

The top accolade of Producer Of The Year was won by
James Ford for his work on the Arctic Monkey’s sixth studio album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino,
Everything Everything’s fourth studio album A
Fever Dream and Gorillaz’s sixth studio album The Now Now. Ford is also a founder member of Simian and Simian
Mobile Disco.

For
the second year running female recording professionals made their presence felt
at the MPG Awards by carrying off a quarter of the accolades, including
Breakthrough Engineer of the Year – a category that was totally dominated by
women and was ultimately won by Dani Bennett Spragg.

Other
notable award winners were Skepta, who was given the MPG Inspiration Award; Hugh Padgham, who received
the PPL Present The MPG Award For Outstanding
Contribution To UK Music, and Rockfield Studios founder Kingsley Ward and his
family who received a Special Recognition Award. Their contribution was marked
by a unique live performance featuring a number of artists who have recorded
seminal projects at Rockfield over the years, including James Dean Bradfield
from the Manic Street Preachers.

The 11th MPG Awards featured
a total of 16 award categories, each designed to recognise and celebrate
the best and brightest talent in music production, along with the industry’s rising stars. The event
was hosted by broadcaster Shaun Keaveny and was attended by over 350
