Happy 4th of July, and Some Recommended Reading
by claybutlermusic on Jul.04, 2009, under Career Building, Music Theory, Recording, Uncategorized
I’m taking a bit of a break from the norm this weekend to be with family and friends, so I’m not going to post anything lengthy. However, as I reflect on the freedoms that I enjoy as a U.S. citizen, primarily the right to education and the freedom to be able to pursue my goals and dreams, I’m reminded that I return to my role as college professor this coming week. I’m teaching another quarter on Music Production and Introductory Music Theory–basically a class on how to be a producer.
The class has some required reading, and I wanted to share that book with all of you. The Art of Producing is one of the definitive books on how to become a music producer. It’s incredibly thorough, yet easy to understand. It covers everything from basic music theory, planning and organization, budgeting, musical composition and arranging techniques, and mixing. I refer to the book time and again as a refresher, and I recommend it to all my students who want to produce music as a career (their own or for others). Now I recommend it to you to!
Enjoy your holiday!
