Are You An Unknown Music Producer ? The Music Industry Is Seeking For You !

By Marcia Alvin


Starting in early 2000's, the music industry, in particular the communities of hiphop and also rnb, noticed the coming up of what we call the "super music producers", accounting for frontrunners: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins or even The Neptunes.

What is considered a "super producer"? Okay, the most suitable answer of their difference with a "simple" producer would certainly take on the instance of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, such as Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or Naomi Campbell. You know these popular super-models as well as anyone else and you can see them on all the catwalks. In simple terms: safe values.

That was the same thing in the music business: there were "big" producers, risk free, that led entirely the projects and also were invited by the best known singers or rappers. This is usually better for records label to capitalize on an esteemed music producer compared to a newbie. The recognized one supplied a plenty of powerful singles, in principle. Because back then normally big names sold cd.

But, the music industry, since the beginning of the decade has totally changed. Firstly, many people don't actually pay money for disk now.

Consequently the record labels offer minimal budget for a project. And as expected, record labels will not be willing to make an investment between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for just one single beat, as was the situation when the golden period of music producers. The disks tend to not sell and the web grows. To surmount not approved downloading of their artists, record companies create or align with with statutory download applications and want to force their existence on this internet scene, which has been escaping their control for such a long time.

But the popularity of the web also has made possible the expansion of countless not known producers as good as, if not preferable to, "Super Producers".

A lot of these producers have paying attention to the progressing of the Internet, that has permitted those to sell their beats online. Making it possible for them to connect and work with rappers on a local scale as well as a world-wide one. A producer from Australia will try to sell beats to rappers in Japan. It most certainly is now easy for them to gain a solid authority or have a career. For the artists, this makes a great difference! They are able to buy beats online from home for their album, EP or maybe mixtape for affordable prices; away from those practiced by the "super producers".

Record labels pay a specific awareness of this brand new business. They buy beats online too. And these days we are able to notice that some web producers are getting signed by majors.

The golden years of super producers just like the years of super model disappears little by little, delivering option to this modern business driven by producers who, usually, do not have anything to envy to the "super producers".
