Animation, Art & Music Videos
You may have seen the music video for ‘Just the Way You Are’ from Bruno Mars which combined live action and some animation. In the video, Mars drew shapes with unspooled tape to show his girlfriend how he felt about her. It seems that more artists are using animation in music videos because an...

3 Benefits Of Music Crowdfunding Beyond "Show Me The Money"
It's not surprising that we all tend to focus on the money when we talk about crowdfunding music. But all the work that goes into crowdfunding campaigns can result in other benefits especially when you keep those in mind. Such benefits can include getting your business act together, spreading ...
Your point is completely valid that now one can record anytime, anywhere - one doesn't need to go to studio to do most of the stuff now.
i'm just saying that in terms of 'recording technique', there's nothing new about using digital modelers and electronic drums (triggering midi). forget abt 2010, Def Leppard (a genuine rock band) did this 'technique' of recording drums AND guitars way back in the 80s! of course, it's more accessible for last 8-10 years or so than it was before :)

True. A thought - If I have to think of crowd-funding as a business model then I should mention to my fans that a portion of the monies raised will go to my personal account in addition to mentioning exactly how much goes into production and how much into fulfillment and distribution. Else, you're just covering costs and it's still great - just not a business model. And if you don't mention how much goes into your personal account, then it doesn't seem right. Anyone else feel like that?

Just wondering on "recording straight into a computer, Mansoor was able to record all of the guitars present on Periphery. Drummer Matt Halpern recorded drum takes on an electronic drum kit to trigger pre-produced drum sounds, which maintained human timing, achieved professional sounding drums, and didn’t anger the neighbors." - Isn't almost every other (new) rock/ metal band doing the Axe FX/ V Drums thigy since last few years? Not exactly a new idea there but good article anyway!
