Neumann.Berlin and Sennheiser Champion Talent at the 2025 Music Producer and Engineers’ Guild Awards
The Music Producer and Engineers’ Guild (MPEG) Awards once again celebrated the producers, engineers, and creatives behind Australia’s most exciting music.
Sydney, Australia, March 6, 2025 – As long-time supporters of the audio production community, Neumann.Berlin and Sennheiser proudly sponsored the Producer of the Year and Breakthrough Producer awards, some of the most prestigious awards in the field, while ensuring an unforgettable night of world-class sound. Neumann and Sennheiser proudly continued their commitment to the audio production community as sponsors of the MPEG Awards on 26th February at the Aerial, Ultimo in Sydney. The brands’ support reinforces a shared mission to foster creativity, innovation, and the future of music production.
At this year’s event, Neumann sponsored the prestigious Producer of the Year award, recognising outstanding talent making waves in the field. The honour went to Chris Collins, an artist and producer whose journey began as a teenager playing in bands before evolving into a highly respected solo artist and producer, known for his work with Royel Otis, Matt Corby, The Buoys and more.
"Excited to get this MPEG Producer of the Year award,” Collins said when accepting the award. “This means a lot – growing up playing in bands, I had the chance to work with some great Australian producers who really influenced me. To now be in the same pool is something really special. Huge thanks to Neumann for supporting the award, the Producers Guild for celebrating and backing all the incredible production coming out of Australia, and to all the artists I get to work with. I feel very lucky.”
