a simple, cut and dry question. When I use the term, I’m referring to a role that sometimes is filled by two people, a producer and an engineer. Oftentimes, the term “producer” will be used to describe a person who did very little work. Despite the fact that there’s little general consensus about what a producer is supposed to use, I like to refer to the person who created a majority of the instrumental and/or mix to be the producer. Note that a lot of people will refuse to think this way, and will insist that the role I’m referring to is the engineer. To those people, I will simply point out that if you choose to argue about this, you are missing the point. It’s not about getting the labels of the crew absolutely correct. It’s about stepping back and realize that there’s people behind the mixing board that are helping to make the music and aren’t getting the recognition that they deserve.
The Impact of A Good Producer
For artists who work exclusively with one producer, this producer is DIRECTLY responsible for creating their signature sound. And if someone happens to be a fan of that particular sound, then they owe their thanks to that producer for bringing that entertainment into their life. If an artist happens to work with multiple producers, then that is a good indication of whether or not you will like their new music. You can simple research who produced their new album, and if your favorite producer happens to be on the new album, then you are more likely to like it.
The movement to get more recognition for music producers isn’t an impossible goal. If Alfred Hitchcock can bring attention to the role of a movie director, and pave the way for directors such as James Cameron, David Fincher, Darren Aronofsky,
