...The Future of Music Careers - In this first in a series of articles for Music Careers, Peter Spellman reflects on where things are at and where things may be going in the music industry Four Tactics to Pack Fans Into Your E-mail List - Have you been dreaming of a huge email list? Sean Farrington of BandProfit.com shares four techiniques on how to build a marketing powerhouse mailing list. Sound Engineering Schools - Dan has been kind enough to find a good comprehensive list of sound/engineering schools on the web. He also offers a few thoughts about choosing a school that's right for you. Playing For Life - What is your definition of a successful guitarist? I would answer, one who plays for life. I've done okay as a guitarist and I'm going to tell you how I've done it up to this point. How I satisfy both my financial and artistic needs and how you can too. Cheap Recording Studios - Worth Every Penny! - Kelly Marsh points out that shopping for the cheapest studio may not give you the greatest results and may in fact end up costing you more money than you'd planned! Cheap Recording Studios - Worth Every Penny! - by Kelly Marsh - So, you're ready to take the plunge and professionally record your CD. Where do you go? Kelly Marsh points out that shopping for the cheapest studio may not give you the greatest results and may in fact end up costing you more money than you'd planned! Top 10 Tips: Recording a Home Demo - by Keane Li - Here are ten thoughtful steps to making your home demos sound more professional. Besides being a Guitar Noise reader, Keane Li is also the songwriter/guitarist for the band Festizio. He is also the winner of the 2003 Online Rock Festival's "Original Song" award. Recording on a Budget Part 1: The Equipment - by Scott Hysell - So, you've written and perfected a bunch of original songs and you're ready to lay them down in a permanent form. The problem is, you're probably worried or maybe even a little discouraged by the potential costs involved. It can be incredibly expensive, but have no fear; it doesn't have to be that way Recording on a Budget Part 2: Recording Concepts - by Scott Hysell - The simple truth is, recording (even home recording) can get pretty complicated, but don't let that pile of stuff scare you. As with most things complicated, the recording process can be broken down into a series of steps and concepts that are relatively easy to understand. The "Live" Technique - by A-J Charron - Until (fairly) recently, many bands recorded their first albums (and almost all recorded their demos) this way. A-J takes us through a very busy weekend of recording. This is a great way for the band-on-a-budget to make a recording in a professional studio. Home Recording: Equipment and Preparation - by A-J Charron - A-J gives us more tips on home recording, gleaned from his work on his upcoming CD. Packed with a lot of advice for the do-it-yourself person in all of us, A-J goes over the necessary equipment and the need to be prepared so that you can make your home recording experience as painless as possible. Recording With Your Own Money (Without a Producer) - by A-J Charron - So you've decided it's time to record an album, yet you have no label backing you. It's a great idea overall: presenting a finished album to a label is much more interesting for them as all the work is already done. They just need to put it into production and onto the store tablets. Where Does All The Money Go? - by A-J Charron - Ever see some pop or rock star in an interview complaining that he/she has no money? You're thinking "yeah, right!". They sold so many albums that they have to be rich. Let's see how it works.

Here are some tips that will help you cover the basics of this deft art and avoid the pitfalls that will render your efforts a jangly and dolorous cacophony. So if you don't want your Dreadnought to sound dreadful, read on. Can You Really Do It All Yourself? - by Stephen Sherrard - Recently, on the message board on this site, someone was thinking about buying a digital recording system and was wondering if he really could get major label quality results from a low budget home studio system. This is my unedited reply to that question. 3D Mixing and the Art of Equalization - by Stephen Sherrard - When you're mixing your CD it's more important to look at the finished picture than at the parts. Learn the intricacies of "sound sculpting" and EQ in this piece from Stephen's site, Music and Technology.com. Compression - A Simple Explanation - by Stephen Sherrard - A compressor is basically a variable gain device that is used to either try to smooth out the dynamic range of a signal, or is also sometimes used as an effect. Different compressors have different types of characteristics and sounds that they impart to the source signal as well... the really expensive compressors are often expensive because of the character of their sound that is desirable for a lot of applications. Do's and Dont's on Gigging Like a Pro! - by Lesa Taylor McCabe - The Manager is the poor slob that gets the job no one else wants. The person that can talk to anyone, anytime, anywhere, and about anything, and do it well. It is my job to make contact, keep in contact, and keep the contact happy. This involves many things, please, allow me to explain. The Importance of a Contract - by Lesa Taylor McCabe - August 19, 2002 - When you and a club have decided that you and your band are the perfect match, dates are settled on, price is negotiated, the next step is to put all this in writing. This is for the protection of both parties. How To Advertise Yourself and Your Band - by Lesa Taylor McCabe - The "Life Blood" of a band, any band, is advertising!! I'm sure you have heard the saying "Any press, even bad press, is good." Why? If you can get people to hear about you, say your name, talk about you over coffee, without hurting anyone or committing a crime, this is "good". What Should I Have in my band's Promo Package? - by Lesa Taylor McCabe - Your promo is what's going to sell you to a club. It is the first impression you will give. And you will only have about a minute to make your point. Club owners and managers are very busy people. They won't or can't spend a long time looking at your band's promo. So, how do you make that lasting impression, hmm? 5 Essentials of Music Career Success - Written by Peter Spellman How To Audition New Band Members - by Lesa Taylor McCabe - Payday Daddy's bassist/manager, Lesa McCabe gives us some great tips on how to go about finding new band members. Tips to Live and Learn By: On and Off the Gig - by Joe Benedetto - We've got a couple of quick Articles this week that make nice "check lists." First up, bassist Joe Benedetto gives us a run down of practical items to bring to your gig. Myself, I'd add a second towel to the list Song Dynamics - by Joe Benedetto - Song dynamics, you ask? Yes. In my opinion, this is what separates the men FROM the boys and the women FROM the girls. I know we are all guilty of it: playing at one volume that is loud or playing above the rest of the mix Telephone Skills - by Joe Benedetto - The other night as I was drifting off to sleep I started to think. I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed about all the auditions and long phone calls that never panned out. The reasons were numerous, too many times a week, too far, too young, too old, too inexperienced, too experienced...everything was a conundrum The Little Black Book - by Joe Benedetto - After reading and hearing about bass players concerned with finding a drummer, guitarist, horn player, or anything else for their ultimate band, I thought I would share one of my record keeping skills: keeping notes, names and phone numbers of band members My Secret Life as a Bass Player - by Tracy Hardy Johnson - I heard there was an "open stage" for this band, so I showed up and jammed with them...and I've been their bass player ever since. We're Drew's Cruisers: guitar, bass, drums, and a keys/tenor sax fellow Hippie Rock and Roll - by Mab O'Connor - Back in 1969 I lived on Castro Street right in the Heart of San Francisco, California. Now 33 years later, I find myself in a band playing all the great songs of the Woodstock Era. So don't ever let anyone tell you that you are too old or too young to start in a band. I will be 53 years young this May, and our band has been together two years now. One Minute of Fame - by Mab O'Connor The Shapes of Things to Come - by Chris Juergensen - Chris Juergensen describes the current state of affairs in the music industry and shows us why the internet is one of the greatest tools for the apsiring musician and why now is a great time to be producing, marketing and selling your own music. Playing With Euros - by Hans Fahling
