Steve Levine: The Hitmaker Behind Culture Club, The Beach Boys & More | Music Producer Legend #cultureclub #boygeorge #stevelevine #recordproducer
He’s the man behind the mixing desk who helped define the sound of a generation.
My guest today is a Grammy Award-winning producer and one of the true architects of ‘80s pop. He shaped the global success of Culture Club, producing timeless hits like Karma Chameleon and Do You Really Want to Hurt Me, and played a key role in launching Boy George into superstardom.
But Steve Levine’s story goes far beyond Culture Club. He’s worked with a staggering range of music legends — from The Beach Boys and Gary Moore to Lemmy — leaving his sonic signature on everything from polished pop to raw rock.
A pioneer of studio innovation and a passionate advocate for new talent, Steve has never stopped pushing boundaries. Today, we’re diving deep into the music, the moments, and the mindset of a producer who helped shape the soundtrack of our lives.
