Music Productions Schools Look For Next Generation of Experimenters

Seattle, WA (prHWY.com) August 22, 2012 - It seems that there are two main segments of the music listening population right now, the majority - which is quite comfortable with what they find on the radio and aren't really concerned that it is rather difficult to tell any of the female lead vocalists apart stylistically or lyrically, and the minority - which believes that a musical revolution is right around the corner.

Current music productions schools are catering toward both of these types of people, but if you press some of the teachers and administrators, you will find that their hope lie on the new students who are coming in that want to break the mold and jump into uncharted musical waters.

"So much of the music that we hear today was experimental at one point," said an administrator at a music school in Minnesota who wished to remain unnamed, "and it was gradually adopted by people as being the norm. But we seem to have been at a standstill for about the last ten years now, and the people who are deep in the industry are starting to get bored."

"Many of us are too old to take too many risks to avoid killing our careers," continues San Francisco Recording School president Jean Upchurch, "but we really are looking to the next generation of producers and composers to take people on a new journey, especially because of the onset of new and cheaper technology that really let's people's imaginations fly."

Still, many people new into the music industry simply want to copy what is already popular, because they feel like that is the quickest road to success. It is this attitude that music production schools across the country, and across the world, are trying to gently suggest may not be the best either for the producer or the eventual listener.

"The people who take the biggest risks at the beginning are going to be the ones who have the most success at the end," says John Martin, "but it is hard to convince people that the best thing that they can do is fail as much as possible when they are still at that age when they are looking for approval in everything they do."

One thing that the staff at music production schools all tend to agree with is that fact that the highest success rates comes from students who are as genuine as possible in their work.
