Things are finally looking up for Wayne Young GMA Nominated Producer / Engineer. Receiving multiple nominations for his work with PHAO (Producer/Engineer/Mixer/Writer/Mediator/Coffee-Runner) and winning multiple GMAs for his engineering work on the Toronto Children’s Concert Choir album.

Wayne brings an unique perspective to his projects, drawing from his experience as a classical musician and arranger, to playing guitar for several Canadian Rock Acts and Worship Bands. Having worked in state-of-the-art studios all across North America, Wayne is able to adapt to whatever space he is in, and will do whatever it takes to draw out the most musical performance possible.

  “Wayne Young has changed the way I look at music. If you want to take your art and your business to the next level, it's hard to know what to focus on. But from personal experience I can tell you that a studio is just a room with gear, songs are just some notes and words on a page but finding someone who is able to pull the maximum potential out of the musicians and the machines around him is what truly makes a measure-able difference in a record. Wayne Young is a technical wizard but also incredibly gifted at pushing his artists through their stubborn limitations to the place where the industry will embrace them. Simply put... he produces”

                                                                               

                                                                                Mike Gnandt (PHAO)

  "I've had the pleasure of working with a few producers, but none have compared to WYoung in terms of stretching an artist's thinking in terms of the process of sound recording and production.  If you want to work with someone who has GREAT (but not limited to) rock sensibilities and pop influence, look no further!  With a GMA nomination under his belt, watch out, WYoungProductions is on the rise!"  -

                             

                                                                         Shu-Ling Lee (Worship Artist)

"Phao has come out of the gate screaming with their new self titled record!

Solid tunes backed by solid production! "This Vanity" & "Safe and Sound" are stellar tracks! Definitely keep your eyes on these guys!"

                                                        

                                                                           Josh Macintosh (Manafest)

    “Wayne has good sense in what gear to use for any given project to produce the intended result, from classical string quartets, to jazz combos or rock/pop bands. His recording mixes have sparkle and character, clarity and depth.

     He is highly detailed and determined to provide a finished product of superior quality. He takes pride in his work, and makes sure it is acceptable to all involved in the project. He also takes initiative and moves projects forward in a timely way, making sure that everything is well managed and well organized.”           

                        Ken Dosso (GMA Nominated Worship Leader / Arranger)

    "When it comes to my songs I have a tough time trusting others with musical decisions; however, Wayne worked with me down to the smallest detail to make sure that each song conveyed the intended message and feeling. It’s every singer-songwriter’s dream to work with him and I am beyond satisfied with the production and audio quality of my tunes. I feel very fortunate to have found someone who can produce, mix, engineer, and play virtually every instrument I could have wanted on my album. Wayne truly is a jack of all musical trades."
