EP#55: Are you a Music Producer‪?‬ Girls Twiddling Knobs

Now, what is a music producer? I mean what do they do? Or maybe most importantly, when have we earned the right to call ourselves one? Surely there’s some way we know for sure we’ve graduated from music tech dabbler to full blown producer, right?

Well, not really, which may be one contributing factor to so few women being represented in this profession. And, that’s why inside this episode, Isobel draws from women in music production and one of the most respected producers of all time, Brian Eno, to better understand this term.

By the end of this episode, your knowledge of the term will be significantly expanded as will your confidence in owning the title of producer if this has been something you’ve been struggling with.

Girls Twiddling Knobs is hosted and produced by Isobel Anderson with production support from Jade Bailey and Francesca O’Connor and is a Female DIY Musician Production.
