Introduction to Pop Music Production

“Thank you for sharing this time with me. I hope you enjoyed it a lot and that everything you learned helps you on your way in music production. Now let's review the key phases of the project. I would like you to briefly explain what you have done in each one and accompany the explanation with one or more images or links. The artist and his song Manage the first meeting with the artist you are going to produce. This meeting is very important to fully understand the project and the expectations. Next, analyze the references given by the artist and his demo. Change the structure of the song, its tempo and key.

Don't forget to do 3 takes of each part. Editing, mixing and mastering It is time for the post-production of the song. Start by editing and comping, then do the mixing and, finally, the mastering. In the downloadable resources of the previous unit I have left you my finished song. To share yours, upload it to any online platform and share the link so they can listen to it. That sure sounds great! The time has come for you to share your final project with the community by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to it. I look forward to seeing your project and giving you feedback. Although I ask for your patience, I will try to access the forum as much as I can and what my professional projects allow me. Finally, I want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, to share your music and your projects, and also to give advice and try to help the rest of the community. I hope to see you in the future making music. See you soon!”
