    Your Recording Studio Is Sitting on a Gold Mine: How AI, Stems, Sync Licensing, and Music Asset Services Can Create New Income

    Making a Scene Presents - Your Recording Studio Is Sitting on a Gold Mine: How AI, Stems, Sync Licensing, and Music Asset Services Can Create New Income The recording industry is changing, and independent recording studios have an opportunity to change with it. New AI audio tools, expanded production workflows, and a growing need for specialized music assets are opening doors to services that go far beyond recording, mixing, and mastering. For commercial studio owners struggling to keep their rooms booked, and home studio engineers looking to turn their equipment into a profitable business, the opportunity may be hiding inside recordings that have already been made. The Recording Studio Business Has Changed, but the Bills Have Not If you have owned a recording studio for any length of time, you probably know that running a studio is as much about running a business as it is about making great records. You can have the best microphones, a beautiful mixing console, excellent monitors, and a room that sounds like a million dollars, but none of that guarantees that enough paying customers will walk through the door. Meanwhile, the electric company, insurance company, software developers, and landlord have absolutely no interest in whether you have sessions booked next week. They expect to be paid, and they are remarkably consistent about reminding you. http://www.makingascene.org

    Making a Scene Music Business Weekly Wrapup

    Making a Scene Presents - The Music Industry Has Discovered Another Gold Mine. Somebody Should Tell the Musicians.Making a Scene Music Business Weekly Wrapup There is something almost comforting about the music industry's ability to announce a revolution every few weeks. Somewhere in a corporate boardroom, executives are celebrating another record-breaking quarter, technology companies are explaining how artificial intelligence will change music forever, and streaming services are working on exciting new ways to charge people for listening to songs. Meanwhile, an independent musician is loading a guitar amplifier into a twelve-year-old van, wondering whether the promoter remembered to include parking in the contract. The technology changes, the business models evolve, and the press releases become increasingly enthusiastic, but the economic realities facing working musicians remain stubbornly familiar. http://www.makingascene.org

    Gerry Casey's Interview with Dennis Bryon Graff

    Making a Scene Brings you Gerry Casey's Interview with Dennis Bryon Graff Dennis Bryon Graff is an independent California singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and recording artist whose music is built around complete creative control. Based in Green Valley Lake, California, Graff writes, performs, records, mixes, and masters his own material, approaching each song as a fully self-contained creative project. Graff plays a wide range of instruments, including guitar, bass, keyboards, and programmed or keyboard-based drums. He also handles both lead and backing vocals, giving his recordings a distinctly personal character from beginning to end. Rather than separating songwriting from production, he treats the studio as another instrument, shaping every part of the final sound himself. His music moves through soft rock, blues, and rock-oriented songwriting, with an emphasis on melody, atmosphere, and straightforward storytelling. Graff’s catalog reflects an artist who has spent years writing and recording on his own terms, developing songs without the pressure to fit neatly into a commercial genre or production formula. http://www.makingascene.org

    Your Song Is Registered. But Is It Getting Paid? AI Uncovers a Hidden Problem in Music Royalties

    Making a Scene Presents - Your Song Is Registered. But Is It Getting Paid? AI Uncovers a Hidden Problem in Music Royalties An AI investigation found recordings by Fleetwood Mac, Michael Jackson, and other legendary artists connected to the wrong musical compositions. If some of the biggest catalogs in music have questionable data, what does that mean for independent musicians who have no army of lawyers watching their royalties? The Music Industry Has a Problem Hiding Behind a Green Checkmark Imagine spending months writing, recording, mixing, and releasing a song. You paid the musicians, covered the studio costs, hired someone to create the artwork, and probably spent more money promoting the release than you care to admit. You did everything the music business experts told you to do. You registered the song, obtained the proper identification numbers, entered your songwriting information, and delivered everything to your distributor. Your music is available around the world, and your royalty dashboard shows that the song is generating activity. Life is good, or at least as good as it gets when you're an independent musician trying to pay the electric bill. Now imagine discovering that somewhere inside the giant computer system responsible for tracking your royalties, your recording has been connected to a completely different song. Perhaps that other song has a similar title. Maybe it was written by another artist with a similar name. Perhaps some software made a connection that looked reasonable to a computer but would be ridiculous to anyone who actually listened to the music. Either way, your registration exists, your ownership information looks complete, and the system appears to be working. The only problem is that the recording and the composition may not belong together. http://www.makingascene.org

    You Built Your Own Artist Website. Does Facebook Think It Can Use What's On It?

    Making a Scene Presents - You Built Your Own Artist Website. Does Facebook Think It Can Use What's On It? Meta's proposed business terms have sparked a fight over website scraping, artificial intelligence, and copyright. For independent musicians, the bigger question is whether using social media to promote your music should give a technology company new permissions over the creative work you own. You Own the Music. You Built the Website. Now Read the Fine Print. http://www.makingascene.org
