"A good music producer needs to have good ears and a determination to get a track sounding as good as it can. A great producer will passionately try to find common ground between his/her vision, the artist's vision and what is best for the track. Phil Warren falls into the latter category and displays the patience, meticulousness and enthusiasm that's essential in a great producer. He's mindful of the clock and can be task-master when required to call upon these skills but never at the expense of the track. Warren's people skills are equal to his production prowess and he's able to get the very best from the musicians and engineers he works alongside. Tension is inevitable in any studio environment. Add Phil Warren into the mix and this is minimised by half just by his presence. I would recommend him for any band, artist or session requiring a great producer"Andy Duke Back2Forward Records/Producer, (Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue)“Phil Warren is an extremely honest, talented and trustworthy individual. Our first experience of Phil’s passion and ability was in 2004, when we asked him to produce some demo material for Susy Thomas. Phil’s work was truly brilliant, giving us a professional product far beyond all expectations. Phil is quite simply a wonderfully gifted producer/musician and my company looks forward to working with him again in the near future.” Daniel Godding Season Records Ltd.“Working with Phil was a joy. Phil was compelled without being overbearing and possessed an acute ear, not to mention a great sense of humour, which always puts everyone at ease.”Dave Stirrup Sound Engineer, (Ok-Go, The Blockheads, Jamie Cullum)Philip E. Warren. Co-founder and co-owner of Back2Forward Records – currently promoting Buck Brothers who have had significant success across North America and founder and owner of The Rock & Pop Music School, South England’s largest Rock/Pop music teaching agency.Phil Warren is co-founder and co-owner of Back2Forward Records. Over the last two years Back2Forward has promoted Buck Brothers enabling them to achieve significant success across North America. Buck Brothers have achieved regular rotation on most of the 450 college radio stations across North America with a number of top 10 chartings; MTV has asked for licensing permission for use of the band’s music on its show ‘My super-sweet 16’; notable actor Daniel Radcliffe is now also a big fan and proponent of the band. In 2005 Phil helped found the band and has produced their debut album ‘Me’ and helped oversee this entire project.Phil also founded and owns The Rock & Pop Music School, South England’s largest Rock & Pop Music Teaching agency. He has had 7 years experience as a music tutor during which time he has become one of South West London’s most successful private music teachers. Phil has therefore had to deal with all manner of clients and personalities, with varied musical abilities and who present various types of teaching challenges. As a result, Phil is in a unique position to work with musicians, which has been demonstrated in his producing work and his experience has given Phil a powerful ability to show performers how to achieve musical goals that many would struggle to enable performers to meet. His business and teaching experience has also taught Phil valuable lessons with regard to dealing with potentially difficult and ‘challenging’ clients. Philip offers private tuition for artists who need to improve their musical skills.Phil, who has been dubbed Philip ‘the Ear’ Warren, also demonstrates unparalleled aural ability. He has relative pitching ability and is gradually developing perfect pitching. He also has impeccable rhythm, virtuoso guitar ability, strong vocal ability and drum ability, keyboard skills, and exceptional mixing ability. Phil will happily demonstrate that he can quickly hear every tiniest detail and note on a recording and is capable of scoring entire songs and can duplicate whatever he hears note for note. Clients are repeatedly astounded by what is becoming his legendary ear. This places him in a unique position as a producer to iron out and isolate even the smallest error or in discrepancy on a recording. In his producing he also demonstrates his skills of instinctively knowing what the listener needs to hear in a successful chart song. Phil knows what he wants and refuses to rest until he has achieved this. Years of experience have now enabled Phil to achieve these goals with precision and speed.Philip has also pioneered in the study of popular music song-writing and has developed a database analysing chord sequencing and melodic movement of hundreds of contemporary hits, which is continually updated with more songs. Very little or no work of this kind has been attempted in the academic sphere since almost all in depth harmonic musical analysis has concentrated on the study of Classical Music due to the erroneous belief that the harmonic structure of contemporary music is a simplified version of traditional classical structure. Some of the results of his studies can be found at The Rock & Pop Music School website www.rockpopschool.com. In 2004 Philip put together the GAP song-writing team in order to write for Susanne Manning who was 4th runner up in Pop Idol. One of the resulting songs has been included on his production demo in order to demonstrate Philip’s ability to write and co-ordinate team song-writing. Philip thrives on combining his skills with talented artists and is keen to write with more promising new acts.www.back2forward.com www.buckbrothers.net www.rockpopschool.comYour results:
