Talented
artists starting out with promising material
often find it difficult to get to the next
level with their music.
Our mission
is to assist music artists in the production
of their original material while providing
a rewarding experience the artist will enjoy
and develop from.
A high quality
recording of their original material gives
an emerging artist credibility and allows
others to understand their vision. Pulling
together a band, getting gigs and garnering
industry interest are also expedited with
the aid of well developed - high quality
product. Lets face it- these days the powers
that be often expect to see fully developed
"finished" work from music artists
before getting behind them.
Recording
material also provides an opportunity for
the artist to assess their creations and
develop their skills in song craftsmanship.
The process, when engaged thoughtfully,
develops the fundamentals- rhythm, melody,
harmony, and of course performance.
Over the
years we have completed many projects with
talented singer/songwriters and bands who
just needed a little help (or sometimes
a lot!) 'finishing' their songs or interpreting
them in a different musical style that contemporised
their timeless idea.
Many of
these artists often felt alienated and stressed
by the whole recording process (where song
writing and performance issues come to the
crunch as the clock burns away dollars).
Unfortunately, many artists spend their
money on expensive resources when the work
is not quite ready and then no one is happy
with the result.
Artists
Development Services aims to treat the pre
production and recording process as the
ultimate learning and creative experience
for the artist. We take the time to treat
the process as a learning progression for
the musicians and teach our artists the
practical (i.e. secret) composition, performance
and production tips they need to know. We
also create an atmosphere and a working
system that cultivates creativity, learning
and ultimately satisfaction with the result.
We aim to empower the artist to develop
their song writing and performing abilities,
taking more control of how their material
evolves and is presented. Regardless of
where they start, all our clients have progressed
to that next level with their writing, performing
and mind set by the end of the recording
process.
