Sylvia's Producer's Lounge

Real stories, raw wisdom, and rare insight from the producers behind music’s most iconic records

At NAMM 2025, we assembled some of the most decorated musical minds for a special interview series. Sylvia’s Producers Lounge is a no-filter video series moderated by iconoclast marek stycos and hosted by legendary producer Sylvia Massy.

This is not your average panel. These are off-the-cuff insights, war stories from behind the glass, and decades of hard-earned wisdom from producers and engineers who’ve worked with everyone from Van Morrison and Maroon 5 to Busta Rhymes, Linkin Park, Chris Cornell- enough to fill your record store’s shelves.

Now, for the first time, you can watch the full series online.
