It celebrates the individuals who are shaping how music is made and bringing a fresh approach to production, from the composers building distinctive sonic worlds to the engineers helping translate artists’ ideas into sound.

    Mastering is the final part of the album-making process – where the songs are fine-tuned and all the elements are shaped into a cohesive whole. Cicely Balston is one of the UK’s breakthrough young talents. They’ve worked across leading London studios like Gearbox, Air and now the legendary Abbey Road, with its iconic zebra crossing out front.

    Cicely has a hugely varied list of credits and has put their finishing touches to everything from punk to alt-pop to UK jazz, and from up-and-coming bands like Witch Fever to legends like David Bowie's back catalogues, as well as some of the most memorable film soundtracks of the past few years.

    Cicely’s ear for detail has been numerous times at the UK’s Music Producers Guild Awards. They won Mastering Engineer of the Year in 2023 and 2025, and also this year, they were part of the team that took home the award for Best Original Score Recording for their work on the very memorable thriller-comedy Saltburn. Cicely’s approach to listening goes way beyond the technical. Their finely-tuned intuition can elevate a track from great to unforgettable.

    This time we’re heading to the California coast with electronic visionary Suzanne Ciani. Her home studio overlooks a stunning bay, and has inspired many Grammy-nominated albums of meditative analogue synthesizer and neo-classical piano music. In the 1970s, she pioneered electronic music with her trusty Buchla modular synth, envisioning bold new horizons for where the sound could go, and designed inventive sounds for the advertising world, such as Coca Cola’s infamous “pop, pour and hiss”. She has returned to her Buchla in recent years, and uses the stage like a studio: she performs innovative shows in quadraphonic sound, manipulating and live mixing sound in real time.

    In this episode, Ciani talks to host Kate Hutchinson about the Buchla’s counter cultural beginnings, breaking through as a rare woman in early electronic sound, sleeping on Philip Glass’s floor, why she never became a Warhol Superstar, the importance of risk, the sensual slowness of sine waves and what drives her as an artist and innovator now.

    In this episode of Studio Radicals, host Kate Hutchinson is in Miami, Florida, with Maria Elisa Ayerbe, who Billboard magazine named one of the songwriters, producers and engineers who is “Blazing New Paths for Women in Latin Music”.

    Bogotá-born Maria Elisa relocated to Miami 10 years ago and has been part of the musical productions for some of the best-known singers in Latin pop and rock, including Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony and Juanes. She has received multiple US Grammy and Latin Grammy nods, notably for her work with Colombian powerhouse Paula Arenas, and a Latin Grammy win for the album Ancestras by Petrona Martinez.

    Maria Elisa’s wide-ranging CV also boasts string ensembles like Kronos Quartet, R&B superstar Mary J Blige and even American boyband New Kids on The Block. But she is also dedicated to uplifting breakthrough Latin talent and runs an indie record label, South Mountain Music, where she produces and develops more alternative artists who don’t necessarily fit the mainstream mold.

    Whatever she’s working on, Maria Elisa notes the importance of staying connected to her roots and of challenging the narrow lanes that Spanish-language music is often funnelled into.
