After No Damage Done (1992) I was determined not to be compromised by the recording process again. I resolved to gain control of the means of production and buy myself one of those new fangled Digital Recorder things. Technology that even ten years ago seemed like a dream now exists to make records of the kind of quality that in the past could only be made with the financial clout of a record company behind you. While I know there are plenty of musicians doing things this way I’m still surprised at how many people still put themselves in huge debt to record companies. The power should be in the music, the recording process is most effective when it doesn’t get in the way. Without this sounding like a manifesto, if the artist controls the means of production he or she can also retain their integrity. The record industry works on the principle that if twenty projects fail, the one that succeeds justifies the huge wastage of talent and resources expended on the others. The problem being that the success of the one must be instant. It is this blockbuster mentality that leads to the extreme conservatism of most record companies. It means that potentially good artists are never given the chance to develop. New technology and of course the internet hopefully is creating a new autonomy for musicians.
