Ok, this is to all of the full time producers on this forum. Somebody who produces as their career.
I've not had too many of these experiences with signed, established bands.
But have you guys noticed how a lot of local bands/new signed bands think they're entitled to basically run your business?!
Shit like: "Ok nick, we have an extremely strict deadline. It's December 3rd right now, and we're expecting our first drafts of mixes TOMORROW. If this is not done, we will be driving up there without compensating you".
Or
"Nick, It's been one week since we tracked our full length! Why isn't it done yet?!?! You're taking longer than we had expected and we would like part of our payment returned, or we will be taking legal actions. We know what goes into your job and it doesn't take that long."
REALLY?! Who the fuck are YOU to tell ME how to run my business. I've been doing this full time for over a year now.. I'm pretty sure I get the fucking nitch.
I just feel like the majority of bands on this level DON'T understand anything that has to do with the recording industry and they DON'T realize how much fucking work we put into it, especially if it's a one man business like mine.
Where do these bands get this arrogance and the BALLS to tell me how to do things?
