Details/Description:
Confessions of a Record Producer by Moses Avalon exposes the bad, the baddest , and the worst elements of the music business. This new, expanded version of the top-selling guide to the music 'biz is not about how the music business should work, but how it does work. Music Industry insider Moses Avalon tells it like it is – how producers dip into budgets, artists steal songs, lawyers write contracts in code – and shows you how to survive these and other career-stifling situations. Bad stuff, indeed.

Deconstructing actual major and indie-label record deals, this book dissects each party's involvement and offers perspective on their actual roles, how much they get paid, and what their agendas really are. Engineers, managers, producers, artists, labels and lawyers each take their turn in the hot seat. It also outlines realistic alternatives for newcomers, such as “baby” production deals and vanity labels.

This new third edition of Confessions of a Record Producer includes: an entire chapter comparing ASCAP and BMI – a publishing first
• new insights for indie artists, including the lowdown on digital-distribution scams and independent A&R
• information on new legislation and its impact on sampling and other legal matters
• new music-industry “family trees” that reflect recent consolidation and reorganization
• 80 pages of new material • and much more.

Consider Confessions of Record Producer your survival guide to the New music Industry! It's a MUST-HAVE for anyone considering a long-term career in the music industry!
