Often we are not able to predict or even see great change around us until the change is well under way or the change is complete. This article's goal is to provide a real time report of the most profound change in the creation and delivery of recorded music in history. In many ways, more important than the invention of audio recording itself.
What is the change and what caused it?
Put simply, the tools and the ability to record professional quality songs and music is being taken from the hands of the few and put in the hands of many.
The Top 7 Reasons (So Far) That Home Recording Musicians Will Take Over Supplying Hip New Music to Hungry Listeners
- Reason 1: The rapid improvement, increase in power, and increased affordability of home computers.
- Reason 2: Rapid improvement and affordability of internet delivery speeds and bandwidth, causing the availability of high speed internet to more and more users.

- Reason 4: Internet music file sharing has begun the death of the big recording labels' monopoly on music distribution.
- Reason 5: The death of the unholy alliance between big recording labels and traditional radio, which previously succeeded in dictating style, genres and taste to more than a generation of music buyers.

What Does the Future Hold for Home Recording Artists?
For those aspiring musicians and producers who understand, and also embrace and act on the possibilities and opportunities now available, the future of the music industry seems to belong to them.
Consider this:
The average home computer with even free recording software installed, possesses more power than the studios where most of the great records were recorded. This represents a massive opportunity for home recording artists to take control of their own fate. The increasing affordability of the home studio equipment available for today's home studio, make this even more true.
Recording Your Hip New Music - What it Takes to Get Professional Sound in the Home Recording Studio
It is now possible to achieve pro quality recording at home with very simple home recording equipment. Therefore, the tools of the trade are no longer an obstacle.
Making successful and confident sounding home recordings now comes down to the desire and determination of each aspiring recording artist or producer. In other words it is important to become familiar with the characteristics and needs of various sounds and the interaction of their frequencies.
When you know how to take control of how sounds behave together, the recording process becomes a series of quite simple and logical steps from the beginning of the recording to the final successful mix.
This does not mean that it is necessary to re-invent the wheel. Instead, seek a straightforward and simple guide to successful and professional home recording.
In other words, your music may be your unique creation, but the "craft" of recording is not. Before needlessly wasting months of trial and error, make the decision to accept the knowledge of those who are already achieving the results you desire from the home studio.
We Are Entering the Golden Age for Independent Music. Will You Be Ready?
The demand for independent and self-produced recordings has never been stronger. TV series, major and indie movies, web content, documentaries, advertising, CD compilations, and a host of other opportunities too long to list here, are all clamoring for hip new music to provide a fresh and original soundtrack for this explosion of new projects.
Indie and home studio musicians and songwriters are the captains of their own ships, whether they realize it or not. Those musicians who have the foresight to embrace the realities of the new music industry, will find little resistance in forging their path and making their mark.
I invite you to see hip new music from simple home recording set ups. These various indie artists' recordings are successfully being placed in movies, tv, cd release etc. Their songs have one thing in common: They were recorded with the help of the step by step Easy Home Recording Blueprint method.
