Special guest Will Sandalls shares his experience working on American Idol and Will Kennedy (Producer, Mixer, Engineer) talks about his recent experience working on a similar weekly singing competition TV show based out of Kenya called Maisha Superstar. We discuss the challenge of tracking vocalists of varying degrees of experience under severe time constraints and the challenge of having to mix super-fast. This leads to a more general discussion about the mixing process with some terrific insights from all. Enjoy and remember to like, subscribe and maybe throw us a review in iTunes!

Episode 11 - Piracy and Digital Consumption of Music We start off talking about the movie "Downloaded" which is the story of Napster and Kenny describes what he thinks piracy did to the business and how it cut out mid-level bands. Will adds on to the same theme where budgets were dropped and how the audience doesn't see any value in music and especially downloaded music and the rationalizations that go with it. Phil also brings up the same idea that bands need to reach out to the fans and let them know what's happening and how we've spiraled down. Thanks for listening!!!!

Episode 9 - Producing vs. Songwriting - Turning in Masters We start by taking a reader's question regarding producing a record and going over to the side of songwriting and how to deal with the discussion of taking that credit and figuring out splits. Kenny talks about splitting everything equally when doing songwriting sessions. Will brings up the Wrecking Crew movie http://www.wreckingcrewfilm.com and how session players can sometimes write parts that could be considered songwriting. Richard brings up how musicians are hired to come up with parts as well and how to deal with that. Matt explains that in general, this is work for hire. Will brings up the concept of bands sharing songwriting even when it's not the way the writing happens. For the sake and success of the band. Matt brings up the importance of pre-production and that's the time to be writing. We then shift gears and discuss handing in Masters to labels and artists and whether or not to share your settings and plugins. Thanks for listening!!!!
