Ha...I just don't agree... You more often see the same artists with the same producers.. |
I don't know why it happens more than once. Sometimes the artist does a record, and decides to find another producer for the next one, sometimes they go back. I'm not them though, so I can't say
It's not just a money thing also, although thats frustrating too. I guess I just wish everyone had the same views as me..haha! Then the world would be boring though..so that's out of the question.

Communication can be challenging...and keeping the artists best interest in mind, maintaining confidence and at the same time trying to avoid big mistakes (because the artist has a wild hair) isn't always cut and dry...
I give that respect to anyone in this...

Agreed. It's easy for things to get out of hand before someone notices or say's anything.

However..Al's statement is as valid here as anywhere...You can't always know why a 'producer' does what they do. You don't know the challenges they are up against...this particular gig, the budget, the rooms, the musicians, and most important the artist and what they expect...
You might get 1/2 into a project and the artist changes thier mind, or wants something new, or wan't to re-do vocals, or this or that or etc...
There is just too much in any one situation to judge what is right, wrong, common and otherwise..
Obviously we all know what we we would PREFER to see happen and how we would prefer to work...but that ain't the reality.
Not to mention...the 'changing' of the guard so to speak. The rules have changed...the game is not the same... it is still evolving and with a few simple searches here on GS you can get everyone's perspective on the subject as this subject is not fresh...  |
You're right. I'm not always there and don't always know what happens. I just wish people wouldn't act like this. I'm not everyone though..so again, the whole world can't feel the same way I do..haha!
