Record Label Marketing Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before I got into the music industry I read every book out there that had anything to do with the business. After years of working I realized only a select few of those many many books were accurate. This book, you can tell, is written by people who know the industry from an inside perspective. Most other books i've read are from authors who don't really have a clue other than what they've heard. This book is a testament to the "old industry" before Steve Jobs and MySpace hit the scene. It would probably find the authors well to update the book with more information about what's going on NOW. If your serious about managing someone's career in the music business I recommend three essential books: Record Label Marketing, The Future of Music, & Legal Aspects of the Music Industry.

From Demo to Delivery (The Mastering Music Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For this review I consulted my spouse, Dr. Lyn Schenbeck, who has many years' experience in the music industry. She writes:
Instead of being written as a single unit, From Demo to Delivery is a book of essays from some of the great producers and engineers of today. Each chapter takes you one step further in the process of taking a song from its demonstration version to the completed format, ready to deliver to a distributor. Not only is the technology explained in brief but accurate scenarios, but a discussion of some of the business aspects of publicity, promotion, distribution, and retail take the reader into the delivery process. In addition, the book contains a brief biography of each of the contributors which explains why Mr. Hepworth-Sawyer chose these particular people. This is a good, useful book for anyone who wants to understand how song goes from creation to the marketplace.
