Matt Taylor, MPG Executive Director, commented; ""Congratulations to all the winners. What a fantastic year. The MPG awards are now firmly one of the premier events in the calendar... and last nights deserved winners reflects that.

The MPG is all about growing and sustaining the talent pipeline and seeing winners either be presented or present awards to their mentors echoes the feeling of the wider community."

Singer, producer, songwriter, dancer and actor FKA twigs was presented with the gifted, PPL Present The MPG Award For Outstanding Contribution To UK Music. Twigs commented on her win: "I'm really honoured to be receiving the award for outstanding contribution to UK music. It means so much to me because the MPG awards are truly industry facing and acknowledge the talented people who are still chained to the desk past midnight.

The fact that for over a decade I have been able to write and produce my own music and still take part in all the glitz and glamour is truly a testament not only to my dedication to my art but also to all of the amazing collaborators I have worked with and learnt from over the past decade. This award is for all of us."

Another notable recipient was the producer, engineer and mixer, Alan Moulder who was awarded the gifted MPG Icon Award. He was presented his award by Catherine Marks.

This year sees the MPG continue to partner with Mix With The Masters who will be capturing content during the ceremony to run across their platforms reaching their global audience and audio community.
