Giles Martin on Completing the Beatles

Beatles producer Giles Martin is back! Giles joins us to talk “Now and Then,” the new Red and Blue re-releases, and… his personalized action figure? About Giles: Giles Martin is the mastermind behind the recent remixes of Sgt Pepper, the White Album, Abbey Road, Let it Be/Get Back, and Revolver, and the son of legendary producer George Martin. Most recently, he co-produced the last Beatles song “Now and Then” with Paul McCartney, and remixed the "Red" (1962–66) and "Blue" (1967–70) compilation albums, released this week. He began working on Beatles projects alongside his father, starting with the Beatles Anthology and later collaborating on the groundbreaking 2006 Love album, the mashup soundtrack for the Beatles-themed Cirque du Soleil production.  Outside of the Beatles, Giles is the executive music director for the band INXS, music directed the 2019 Elton John biopic Rocketman, and created last summer’s immersive, Dolby Atmos mix of the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds. Giles is currently the Head of Audio & Sound at Abbey Road Studios and the Senior Vice President in charge of Sound Experience for the home audio company Sonos. Giles is a two-time GRAMMY winner for his work on The Beatles’ Love, and won an EMMY for his work on The Beatles' Get Back. --------------------- +Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter/X for photos, videos, and more from this episode & past episodes — we’re @bcthebeatles everywhere. +Follow BC the Beatles on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you’re listening now. +Buy us a coffee! www.ko-fi.com/bcthebeatles +Contact us at [email protected].
