Phil Bodger has been engineering and mixing for the last 30 years, working on some of the biggest records with renowned artists. In recent years Phil has mixed tracks for the Sugababes, Lily Allen, Lene Marlin, Alison Moyet, Beverley Knight, Ray Davies and Sheryl Crow, as well as mixing a number of film scores.
In his early career, in-house at Lansdowne and Regents Park Studios, he worked with legends like Thin Lizzy, The Jam and The Sex Pistols. When he became freelance in the mid 80’s he worked with many producers including Trevor Horn, on Frankie Goes To Hollywood and John Williams, where he recorded and mixed both the first Housemartins (as well as all subsequent albums) and The Proclaimers albums. Phil then had a Billboard No. 1 with his remix of Maxi Priest’s ‘Close To You’, as well as several more top ten hits on both sides of the Atlantic with his co-production of Cathy Dennis’ debut album ‘Move To This’.
In the years that followed, Phil built his reputation as one of the most sought after mixers working with artists such as Sinead O’Connor, Brand New Heavies, John Cale, M People, Mark Morrison, Stevie Wonder, Lighthouse Family, Dave Stewart, Sade, Russell Watson, S Club 7, Gareth Gates, Tina Turner, Shea Seager, Jamelia as well as The Spice Girls reunion tour.
Phil has his own mix studio in Brighton and has recently mixed ‘Classic’ and ‘Classic Christmas’ for Joe McElderry on Decca. He also mixed ‘This Ain’t New Jersey’ for Smith & Burrow on Kitchenware Records and tracks for Kyla La Grange, Lotte Mullan and Dubstar.
