actually the person who makes the underlying music is called a COMPOSER. learn the game.
go to
www.homerecording.com or
www.vsplanet.com and post that. you will get ran off the board. better yet go to artistpro.com and type that. if you cant do that please pick up various music books such as MIX,ELECTRONIC MUSICIAN OR EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT THE MUSIC BUSINESS.
so whats the difference between producers royalties and composers mechanicals? when does a producer get paid? how does he get paid? this is one of the main reason why the game is saturated with crap (especially in the bay area).
wycleff,quincy jones,raphael saddiq,babyface. these guys normally DONT play the instruments. labels or the ARTISTS HIRE these guys to come and in mold/shape a artist OR project. they get PRODUCERS ROYALTIES. this is NOT the same as COMPOSERS/WRITERS/ARTIST mechanicals.
contact
www.ascap.com or
www.bmi.com or call em up. i bet if you tell them that a producer is the beat maker they hang up in your face.
check yourself b4 u call people idiots. i bet most of you do a "poor mans copyright". incredible shrinking POCKETS............
