Comment on The Pros & Cons of Signing A Publishing Deal by Judy Rodman

I absolutely agree with everything in this article… I could have written it! I have had publishing deals with most of the major companies and am very happy now writing under my own publishing company. The hardest thing to deal with for me is keeping up with mechanical licensing… which so many indie artists fail to get done. I did research and have an article for those who find mechanical licensing confusing here http://judyrodmanproductions.com/2010/08/mechanical-licenses-for-recording-projects-what-when-how. Hope it helps your readers. GREAT series here… and your book has to be fantastic!

Comment on Why Songwriters Should Seriously Consider Using a Professional Recording Studio by Brad Allen (Kansas City Singer/Songwriter)

Brad Allen (Kansas City Singer/Songwriter) — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 18:21:31 +0000

Great article. I think it depends a lot on your situation and what you enjoy. Some songwriters have very good day jobs. Therefore, they have ample money, but may be very short on time. Those people are probably much better off paying to record in a commercial studio. As for me, I’ve been a full-time freelance musician for over 10 years. I’ve had had very little money to work with, but I’ve had the time and desire to learn to record my music in my home studio. I’m still learning. To me, it’s an ongoing process. It can be very frustrating at times, but it’s also very rewarding. I have to say that I’m still especially inspired when I hear a song that was recorded and mastered in someone’s home studio, and it sounds fantastic. I truly admire those type of musicians because I know that achieving that isn’t easy.
