This week, we celebrate the easing of lockdown in the UK and the possibility of doing more face-to-face sessions, and begin a campaign for sessions to start earlier in the day. This is at the instigation of our guest, George Reid. As an artist, he found fame as one half of electronic pop duo AlunaGeorge, who were shortlisted for the BBC Sound of 2013 poll, as well as receiving a nomination for the BRITS critics choice award. They soon became part of the pop vanguard of the early ‘10s, thanks in no small part to George’s distinctive and esoteric RnB production style. George has since turned his talents to working with other acts out of his home studio in New Malden, including producing Spice Girl Mel C and remixing Coldplay.

The Process of Production is presented by Lawrence Diamond and Bob Matthews.
Lawrence cut his teeth playing and writing in Indie bands before finding international success and touring the world with his band CITIZENS! During that time he worked with a host of revered producers including Liam Howe, Mark Ralph and Alex Kapranos. Since the band ended in 2016 he’s been using that experience to help other artists develop their careers as a writer and producer while continuing to release his own music under various different guises.
Bob learned his trade as the producer and multi-instrumentalist in Electronic Pop duo Alpines, whose career spans 3 albums, releases on major and indie record labels, shows with Florence + The Machine, The xx, Emeli Sandé, and a top 20 hit 'Tidal Wave' in collaboration with Sub Focus. In recent years he has turned his focus to producing other acts and has a studio in Chiswick in West London.
