Absolutely inspired by DJ Paulette on this amazing podcast, only discovered the series this week but will be returning for more joy for my ears 👌

So many mindset shift magical gems in EP55. It took me to write and produce 100% of an album before I could call myself a music producer! Wish I’d heard this episode before! Am also going to reference to myself as a ‘Sound Artist’ a term coined by the legendary ‘Brian Eno’. This feels so...Read full review »

I just listened to Orla Gartland talking with Isobel about becoming a producer. I love hearing two skilled women share their thoughts on the craft of producing music. Vulnerabilities and unique perspectives are shared on this podcast along with inspiring music. I can’t wait for the next season!
Grace @saolascene via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/11/23
This is my go to podcast for long car rides. I get inspired every time when I hear other womens’ stories and the technical episodes make me realize I have so much to learn and something new to try.
Jess Magoch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/23
Informative and engaging podcast. I wish the podcast and Isobel’s community had been around 20 odd years ago when I was first finding my way into recording music in my home studio! It’s a wonder to hear amazing women doing their thing in the industry in spite of the rampant misogyny.. Back in the...Read full review »

I love hearing how other people have navigated (and succeeded) building their music careers, how others produce their work and of course Isobel’s pep-talk style solo episodes always get me thinking and re-inspired! I’ve never felt so seen and supported as a woman in music before!
RedMusicOfficial via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/10/23
An excellent podcast about music production. I’ve been teaching myself production and recording for the last year. Listening to Girls Twiddling Knobs and being part of the online community (female DIY musician) on instagram and facebook motivates me to keep learning. Isobel always finds great...Read full review »

I’m not in the target demographic for this podcast, but I love Isobel’s approach to the subject matter, and her philosophy on pursuing a career in the music/recording industry, in general. I don’t hear many people in this field talking about creative self-doubt and emotional well-being in the...Read full review »

This podcast is amazing! Who else has spent this much time and energy to meet women music makers were they are and give them the information and support to move forward? Thank you Isobel and contributors, I am inspired and encouraged to keep going with creating music.

Every time I check in for a new episode I wonder if the topic will actually resonate or just be mildly interesting. Each time I’m genuinely inspired by the though-provoking, perspective-widening discussions. Sometimes I’m even moved. I’ve shared many episodes with so many friends, some musicians,...Read full review »

I've only listened to the first episode, but Isabel has a way with words. She helped ease my mind with some of my own moments of self doubt today and is an inspiring voice for a struggling creative. Thank you for making these. You definitely have a new listener.Read full review »
Jtarr123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/21
These podcasts are fascinating and insightful. The conversations are so interesting but even when there is no guest and Isobel is musing on a topic by herself, you get a really considered point of view on music, tech and creativity. Can’t recommend enough - thank you!
Starry buck via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/16/21
These podcasts are brilliant and I hope there are lots of men also sneaking over to hear what Isobel has to say and share. Polished, engaging, grounded and I always come away feeling I have had a session with a life coach! So many interesting conversations, pro tips and voyages of discovery. If...Read full review »

I would urge you to listen to this. Isobel speak eloquently with no patronising and it has given me the real push I needed to start making a release plan for my music. She is rebuilding my mindset around creativity, vulnerability and work ethic. Thank you!!

I love this podcast. It simply explains things without being patronising and it’s so refreshing to have a female focused podcast about music production!
Lilbbiggestfan via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/01/21

Great pro tips about the music industry, while aimed at women but applies to anyone interested in working in the music industry. Excellent production values as you would expect given the subject matter. Well done to all concerned and highly recommended.

This is such an important podcast to be out in the world. Thank you Isobel for bringing all this brilliant wisdom to my ears!
gabst*r-music-chick via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/03/20
As a female musician having this podcast is wisdom overflowing ❤️❤️❤️
mamuamo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/30/20
This podcast is a revelation! I wish it had been around 10 years ago as I really could have done with this knowledge when I bought my first DAW (Magix, if anyone remembers that one!). Anyway, it’s never too late to learn and I’m excited to have Isobel as my tutor.
MyOwnNorthStar via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/30/20
Love a music podcast getting nerdy and geeky about music but not being ‘superior ‘ or wanky about it. 🎵🎵🎵
ellen 3333 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/27/20
This is a godsend for people (like me) who think they need more self-discipline when in fact it’s perhaps encouragement that is missing.
piannapple via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/27/20
The first three jargon-free episodes demystify DIY production. Open, down to earth and informed host who is all about the journey.
lukomyke via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/26/20
What an awesome podcast delivering honest, down to earth, relevant and punchy ‘take homes’ to support the female d.i.y musicians!!! Love it ❤️
LauraLoftMusic via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/26/20
A generously honet, warm-hearted and inspiring podcast which is an absolute must for any womxn in music. I am so inspired by Isobel and her work and the first 3 x episodes have got me so excited already. I cannot wait for more! xx
ClaireJi1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/26/20
Never has a podcast (or just an artist/industry figure in general!) made me feel so seen, heard and encouraged. As a woman who’s been instinctively ‘twiddling knobs’ since I was 14 but always felt like a fraud so just threw money at producers, never felt good enough and kept quitting on myself,...Read full review »

This is already exciting and excellent from the first second. After years of trying to blend into a creative artistry that is 99% of the time judged by men, this podcast (with no doubt) will be an eye opener to all female music creatives who have wished, but felt anxious to take the lead and...Read full review »
