The Animal Farm are producers / writers Mat and Ville Leppanen, whose careers started in 1993 as staff songwriters on Bob Grace’s Empire Music. Between 1998 - 2003 the brothers released albums and toured (with bands like Blink 182, Alkaline Trio, At The Drive-In, The Ataris, and Less Than Jake and many more) as members of punk band Snowdogs, signed to Victory Records US. In 2003 the Leppanens stopped touring to set up The Animal Farm.

The Finnish brother's productions include bands such as 'One Night Only', signed to Mercury / Vertigo Records, Diesel U Music winners 'Quad Riot' for Fierce Panda and Steve Lamacq's favourite new band 'Ejectorseat' - who have recently signed a publishing deal with Animal Farm Music Ltd. (A publishing company formed in collaboration with Taste Music Limited).
 
'The Animal Farm' work out of their own recording studio near Tower Bridge, built around Neve and Protools with plenty of live acoustic space - a great environment for developing bands.
 
Mat and Ville are also accomplished multi-instrumentalists. They play, program and produce backing tracks as well as writing top lines and lyrics. 'The Animal Farm' also compose music for commercials and corporate brands.

Recently, The Animal Farm have continued to produce tracks for new discovery 'Rosalita' and writing for Major label new signings.
