The Music Producers Guild
welcomes you all to its web-site, a forum for debate and  networking,
with access to the latest news, and announcements of up-coming MPG  special events.

There is a reference section, the Knowledge Bank, which contains a vast amount of information
which we are sure you will find useful. The Members' Directory is openly available to search
for and contact producers, engineers, mixers, etc. 



Who Are We?

The Music Producers Guild was conceived and is supported by producers and engineers who are
passionate about all aspects of making and recording music. It is a not-for-profit company and is
run by volunteers from the membership.

The achievements of this creative community are celebrated through the annual MPG Awards
event and we hope to stimulate development and evolution through the discussions and debate
at our events and through our website.

We see it as providing a community for us to share our collective experience and collaborate
with other like-minded people.

What Do We Do?

Formed as a Guild rather than a Trade Association, MPG has no party political agenda, but we do
represent our community to government so that our voice is heard. We actively engage with other
music industry organisations, to develop a dialogue about and exert an influence on matters of
mutual interest and benefit to our members and our industry.

We also encourage and support discussion and development within our community through
various events, sub groups such as the Mastering, Pro Tools and Logic user groups and our
participation in UK Music and JAMES, the jointly owned education wing of MPG.

Who Should Join?

Membership is open to all producers, engineers, mixers, re-mixers, programmers, sound
designers, mastering engineers, students, enthusiasts – everyone who shares our delight in the
possibilities of music and audio.

We have tried to structure membership to reflect this attitude of inclusion by offering a tier of
membership to suit all levels of involvement and budget whilst respecting and honouring the
commitment, dedication and creativity those at the top of the profession display.


A quote from Paul Rodgers, Editor, BBC 6 Music:

"I think the MPG makes a very valuable statement about primacy of the producer's craft
and its benefits at any stage in an artist's development."
