The Producer’s “vision” for an artist/band
Having considered the different roles a producer plays in recording, post your thoughts as to how much control a producer should have over a musician’s/band’s sound and image. Please do some research into the producers involved with one of your favorite songs or albums, and post an example here (copy and pasting a youtube URL will automatically embed the video). Is that producer recognized for having a particular “sound” or representing a certain type of musician? Should the producer have a say in how the musician/band is represented in terms of image and publicity?
Given this is the only homework due for the week (beside the Unit 1 test), it is worth 4 points.
Example 1
I believe a producer should not have total control over a musician or bands sound/image. Instances like these lead to unfair treatment over the artists and causes many to leave, as they feel like a puppet to their producers. I feel like an artist should maintain the aesthetic they want for their brand and music and the producers should help them polish it so they re able to brand the artists image well and in the way the artist likes it. One artist who doesn’t seem fully controlled by their producer is Taylor Swift. She was able to write her own lyrics and helped brand herself in the way she likes with the help of the producers being able to put her ideas in vision:
Song: Taylor Swift – Love Story (written by herself)
Example 2
I think a producer should have some control to an extent. If the producer knows how to produce or ensure quality. They should help them become what is trending in the world today and how to attract the audience. Though the artist should also be in control of their creativity. They should still be able to be themselves while also ensuring quality.
My favorite albums right now is Higher by Chris Stapleton. Chris Stapleton is just an outstanding singer with incredible vocals, its almost unreal. Chris Stapleton was actually one the producers himself on this album. Hes also helped produce other songs for other country artists, after doing research and carefully listening to different songs hes produced they all have a similar sound to his own.
