Meredith Brooks Redefines A&RMay 1, 2004, By Heather Johnson With the record industry seemingly more interested in fat bottom lines than long-term career development, many artists stopped grabbing at the “major-label record deal” brass ring long ago and began taking a more proactive role in their business affairs.... Classic Tracks: The Doobie Brothers' "What a Fool Believes"May 1, 2004, By Robyn Flans No one was more surprised than Michael McDonald when the song he wrote for the Doobie Brothers, “What a Fool Believes,” earned Grammys for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, as well as Best Arrangement Accompanying Vocalists at the 1980 awards ceremony.... Matthew Sweet: Happy at HomeMay 1, 2004, By Craig Dalton Tucked away in the Hollywood Hills, surrounded by the sites of countless hit movie location shoots, is the home and personal studio of Matthew Sweet.... Jimmy JamApr 1, 2004, By Heather Johnson Prince must have kicked himself squarely in his purple paisley derrière after firing his keyboardist and bassist back in 1983.... Music for GamesMar 1, 2004 We've moved from MIDI to audio files, from 22kHz mono playback to 44.1 stereo, and from repetitive bursts of loops to full scoring and interactive transitions — in key.... Audio at Electronic ArtsMar 1, 2004, By Blair Jackson AS LITTLE AS 10 YEARS AGO, sound and music for games were practically afterthoughts, usually handled by the same person, generated on MIDI synths and only occasionally using samplers and libraries for effects, and wedged into the game at the end, usually at 8-bit resolution.... Bob ClearmountainMar 1, 2004, By Maureen Droney In person, Bob Clearmountain looks much too youthful to have been engineering for more than 25 years.... Guitar Wizard Johnny A.Mar 1, 2004, By Barbara Schultz A home studio can be a blessing and a curse for a workaholic.... Living ColourFeb 1, 2004, By Chris J. Walker Much like a popular couple breaking up, the extremely dynamic alternative metal band, Living Colour, which officially disbanded in 1995, was constantly queried about reuniting.... Gary RydstromFeb 1, 2004, By Tom Kenny It's the rare individual who is able to go out on top, to walk away from a career while still at peak performance.... Nick LaunayFeb 1, 2004, By Bryan Reesman Some people work fastidiously to build a career while others naturally fall into one.... Classic Tracks: The 5th Dimension's "Aquariaus/Let the Sunshine In"Feb 1, 2004, By Dan Daley It seems axiomatic that the further back in time we reach, the more the actual making of records becomes almost anticlimactic to what transpired outside of the recording studio's confines.... Steve EarleFeb 1, 2004, By Gaby Alter Steve Earle is not a man to lay idle.

Rufus WainwrightFeb 1, 2004, By David John Farinella After what he terms a few “harrowing” experiences with record producers, singer/songwriter Rufus Wainwright has finally found an aural ally in Marius deVries.... Neil Sedaka's Breaking Up Is Hard to DoJan 1, 2004, By Gary Eskow Born in Brooklyn in 1939, Neil Sedaka was a gifted pianist once lauded by none other than Arthur Rubinstein as one of New York's best young players.

Walker If 2003 was “The Year of the Blues,” it's appropriate that the undisputed modern master of the genre, B.B. King, put out a fine album in the fall to cap the celebration.... Eric SchillingJan 1, 2004, By Maureen Droney Life never gets boring for Eric Schilling. An engineer with a knack for consistently creating polished pop/rock, Schilling is also in demand for the savvy that he brings to jazz and Latin projects.... The Naked Truth About The Beatles' Let It BeNakedJan 1, 2004, By Matt Hurwitz Ever wondered what The Beatles' Let It Be album would have sounded like had it been properly completed instead of released as a companion disc to their 1970 fly-on-the-wall motion picture of the same name?...
