ABOUT US
BEN WHYNTIE
Ben is a distinguished audio engineer and music producer whose career is built upon a rare and extensive dual foundation: elite-level performance and production expertise.
Since starting the trombone at age seven, Ben's musical journey has been a dynamic blend of precision and passion. His career highlights include graduating from the Royal College of Music and performing at world-renowned venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, Festival Hall, Buckingham Palace, and the Kennedy Arts Centre in Washington D.C.
Equally proficient on the drum kit, Ben has performed over 600 function gigs, played major international festivals including Glastonbury, Bestival, Latitude, and Sziget, and contributed his talents to over 100 studio recordings. This unique performer's perspective is invaluable, allowing him to anticipate artists' needs and translate performance energy into final mixes.
After college, Ben leveraged his technical skills in London, working in the audio department for the popular game franchise PlayStation's SingStar, gaining essential experience in high-volume, professional audio delivery.
In 2011, drawn by his lifelong fascination with sound capture, Ben moved back to Portsmouth to focus on audio production. He soon took over The Old Blacksmiths Studios, where, over more than a decade, he honed his craft working with hundreds of bands and artists across the South of England.
In 2025, driven by a vision for a personalized, high-end production space, Ben made the decision to close The Old Blacksmiths Studios and relocate. Taking all the knowledge, experience, and the very best equipment from his 14-year tenure, Little Piggy Studios was born at his new residence in Havant, UK.
