Tag Archives: label

As an audio and video engineer, and also a producer,I’ve seen first hand the arguments presented by Radiohead and Elton.  It seems to me however that the fault still lays on the labels, specifically the major ones, whose abuses in the past have turned off many people to their necessity. Excessive markups and huge profits compared to the same artists who’ve brought them said money, is unfair, to say the least. I feel like this is something that can be worked on, like Elton said, if they so desire. Right now, they seem to have their nose in the air. The Pavlik reading brought an interesting idea to mind regarding a media guide. I’d like to see how that could happen but again it would seem to require cooperation by the video hosts themselves, the new record labels and tv studios if you will.
