I'm also a UK top ten record producer. Jus' sayin'...
You paid for the service, you should get what you did in any way you want, to do with as you see fit. "I can't let you have those" my arse. If you paid, you OWN 'those'.
I like having ultimate quality control over everything I do.
Yes, you are entitled to the stems. I almost expect requests like that nowadays.
However, I have also been a bit miffed when I have had to record awful bands and then they say that their EP was produced by me in interviews and magazine and webzine features.
In reality, they're not. They're recorded and mixed, yes. But I don't want to be responsible for some of the utter crap that comes through. And I certainly don't want my name or the studio to be attached to these sorts of clients.
If I HAD actually produced it, yeah fine.
But a few days recording with me, for a four track EP or something is definitely not having it PRODUCED by me.
It's a funny position being an engineer/producer. Your work is what gets you work. So you have to be careful who you associate yourself with sometimes.
Fortunately, I manage to at least turn the worst dog shit into something that at least SOUNDS good. The song writing could be an absolute basket of waste, but y'know.
And then it says that I produced it. Yeah. Fuck right off.
A no go for me.

I know, I do it myself, but if someone wanted to hire me for tracking and not mixing I'd be perfectly fine with that. You can sort out the credit business beforehand - including discussing the right to not have your name associated with it if you don't want to.
Withholding material that the client owns and has paid for, on the other hand, is not on.
If a band tracked the best sounding tracks in the world with me and paid me for that work, then took them away to be murdered in a shit mix, it wouldn't be my problem. But I'd make sure my name was not down as a producer or a mix engineer.
As far as I'm concerned, they pay me to do what they want me to do. Once they've paid, they own the recordings.
Giant wafer in mid wales (well, near Llandrindod Wells). Top spec studio, very cheap, and cheap accommodation too
Lovely owner/engineer
