Join Patreon Get some merch ~~~~ FEATURED SONG NICK – “Fool for You” (from the upcoming album, Valley of the Ureleased) ~~~~ Part 5 of my Great Producers series takes us to the 1990s, a hinge decade if there ever was one. So much of the “old world” of music production was still in play, and for so many reasons. But the new world that was being shaped in the ‘70s & ‘80s finally took hold, and a new standard of recording quality was achieved that has been the template ever since. As usual, I go through the technological & musical changes that helped define the decade, then discuss some of the best producers. Are you a fan of ‘90s production? Could you hear the huge shift in sound quality from the ‘80s to then? What are some of your favorite ‘90s albums & producers? Were you aware of how much of a pivot the ‘90s was from the old ways to what we consider the norm today? Discuss dammit!
