InfluencesNirvana's Nevermind is not the only great record ever made.

If it sounds good, it is good.

For general educational purposes we recommend you watch Metallica's Some Kind Of Monster DVD.

Read Paul Zollo's book "Songwriters on Songwriting" and then listen to and find inspiration in the work of those interviewed.

Invest in the fantastic autobiographies of Bob Dylan and David Lee Roth. Fred Goodman's "Mansion On The Hill" and Frederick Dannen's "Hitmen" will tell you how the record industry was built and by whom.

One sure thing: you can't go wrong with D.W. Fearn, Neve, SSL, Neumann, Protools, Fender guitars and basses, Marshall amplification and good Italian coffee.

   About The Animal Farm
.. THE ANIMAL FARM is a music production company. We produce records, write songs, manage artists, run a publishing company and a record label. We're engaged in this great business that is the "music business". Notice how "music" comes before "business".

We are based at the Biscuit Factory in London, near Tower Bridge. It's a cool community of music and entertainment based businesses and we can see the London Eye from our windows.

If you're an exciting new band making exciting new music - you should get in touch. As you should if you're a manager or a label looking for a producer or a co-writer for your artist.

To find out what's REALLY going on... check out our blog News At Zen

To get News At Zen into your mailbox, subscribe here RSS

To hear what we consider to be great new music, please listen to some our current projects like I Remember Tapes , the wonderfully grand Lost Aura , Derby's finest You-V-Me , The Souvenirs , Essex boys The Jayways , Moontown who a friend described as a "leftfield Kylie thang", or North London rap/indie/poppers Kyoshi or the wonderfully synth poppy The Light Cascades , or the one and only One Night Only (Vertigo), Road To V Festival winners Rosalita (Taste Media), Universal's talented Pianoman Jack McManus (Polydor); Mancunian Emo quintet Smudge (The Animal Farm); Slice The Pie winners Shortwave Fade (Shifty Disco), desert funksters Esteban (The Animal Farm), Diesel U-Music winners Quad Riot (Fierce Panda), Irish songstress Tara Blaise (Spokes/Warner), Southampton art rockers Soma High (label tbc), Indy Award winners The Brent Flood (The Animal Farm) and the very excellent Cambridge youngsters Alpha Road

The Animal Farm is run by producer/writers Mat and Ville Leppanen. We started our careers in 1993 by signing as songwriters to Bob Grace's Empire Music. Our career took a severe and welcome left turn when our punk band Snowdogs signed to Victory Records in the US. We toured the world from the late 90s until 2003 when we set up The Animal Farm. Consequently, our CV is a veritable smorgasboard of artists as diverse as At The Drive-In, Shakin' Stevens, Blink 182 and S Club 7...

If you want us to check you out, please direct us to your MySpace remembering to tell us what it is you're after.

Our contact details are here.

Please note that there are two things we don't do: book gigs or give feedback on demos. We're not a booking agent and... if it's feedback you're after, try turning your amp louder.... ;-)

We are represented by Safta Jaffery at SJP and we are partnered up with Taste Music.

The old saying goes: "It's all about great songs."

Please remember to update the saying as follows: "It's all about great songs but without great production nobody will know you've written one."

The old saying goes: "It's all about who you know."

Please update as follows: "It's all about who you know, but if you don't have a great record, you might as well talk about the weather with your contacts."

The inspirational American novelist Kurt Vonnegut said: "There is no reason good can't triumph over evil, if only angels get organized along the lines of the mafia." He also said: "A plausible mission for artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit." He went on to say that "The purpose of life is to love those who are around to be loved" and "We're here to fart around - don't let anyone tell you any different".

So it goes.
