Heard the slow cooked bears on an episode and subsequently binged all of them! I’m always looking for new stuff and listen to and being especially keen to hear how others navigate the music industry and thank you Phil for giving this show to us! Spirit boosting.
I’m finding some really good bits of information, but it’s also really well executed! Really enjoying it!
Really enjoyed these episodes and think that there's a lot of worth and relevance to the subjects covered.
Now that I am working remotely 24/7, I am always looking for podcasts that will hold my attention, yet are easy listening so that I can still focus on my work. I’ve been a musician working in studios for almost 15 years but there is always more to learn. This podcasts gave me a perspective of how music is done on the other side of the pond (UK) and how creative other approaches can be to recording, music production, artist development etc. Each episode makes you excited to hear the next!

During lockdown I’ve discovered the joy of podcasts while working from home and this is one that was brought to my attention by one of the hosts.
As an active band dude I enjoy the content and am finding it really informative and useful. A plus side is the banter style of presentation and neither voice is irritating. I’ve advised my band mates to give it a listen.
Really loving this podcast. Lots of great information but not condescending or patronising.
Consistent and well produced.
Keep it up.
An entertaining listen - interesting music chat with friendly, welcoming host + smooooth radio voice
Just getting into this podcast and I’m loving it.
Conversational and relaxed but informative.
Joe is mixing one of my songs at the moment and this podcast has given me confidence that he knows what he’s doing so I’m looking forward to hearing the results. (I’m sure Phil does as well)
Keep up the good work guys :-)
Worth the listen, recommended to all the music pals
Really informative!
