A New Hope For Young Music Producers!

By Mary Barla


During the early 2000's, the music business, in particular the communities of hiphop and rnb, observed the coming up of what we now call the "super music producers", accounting for frontrunners: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins and also The Neptunes.

What is a "super producer"? Well, the ideal interpretation of their distinction with a "simple" producer will adopt the illustration of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, comparable to Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or even Naomi Campbell. You know these legendary super-models as well as everybody else and you can see them on all the catwalks. To be brief: safe values.

That was the same thing in the music industry: there were "big" producers, risk free, that directed entirely the projects and were looked for by the most well recognized singers and also rappers. This is really risk-free for record label to capitalize on a nationally ranked music producer compared with a novice. The widley known one delivered a lot of successful singles, in theory. Simply because at the time normally big names sold cd.

But, the music industry, after the beginning of the decade changed. Firstly, most people don't really spend money on disc nowadays.

Which means the record labels give substantially less budget for a project. And clearly, record companies are no longer looking to participate between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for one single beat, as was the scenario at the time of the golden years of music producers. The disks not sell and world-wide-web develops. To deal with illegal downloading of their artists, record companies align with statutory download tools and decide to impose their existence on internet, that has been getting out of their control for way too long.

But the rise of the internet has allowed the coming up of lots of unknown producers as good as, if not more advantageous than, "Super Producers".

Those producers have focused on the growth of the Web, that has assisted them to sell their beats online. Permitting them to reach and work with artists on a local scale as well as a world wide one. A producer from New york will now be able to try to sell beats to an artist in Japan. It gets now more effective for them to gain a good repute and have a career. For the artists, this makes a huge difference! They are able to buy beats online at home for their album, EP or maybe mixtape for affordable prices; certainly not those practiced by the "super producers".

Record companies pay a special attention to this modern business. They buy beats online too. And most recently we could see that a few internet producers are getting signed by majors.

The golden era of super producers like the years of super mannequin disappears steadily, revealing option to this modern business driven by producers who, generally, have next to nothing to envy to the "super producers".
