  • Episode 2: The Producers (Part 1)

    Episode 2: The Producers (Part 1)

    In this episode we make our amends to Mr. Lange and discuss the role(s) of a music/record producer and how it has changed since the days of George Martin. What is a producer? A songwriter? An arranger? A project manager? An audio engineer? A digital audio geek? Yes, say Jeremy and Leon, and sometimes much, much more. See if you can follow our mental meanderings and reach a conclusion of your own. Thanks for listening and make sure to give us a review!
