What music production always gave you chills? For me It's Pink Floyd The Final Cut The lyrics, and production really bring a tingle to your spine especially on “The Final Cut”. The production breathes with the story with the sensitive vocal beginning with piano. As the emotion grows the band comes in, French horns help it build throughout. “And if I show you my dark side will you still hold me tonight? And if I open my heart to you and show you my weak side what you do?” https://lnkd.in/gF5BPkyj What is it in the production that gives you chills? The words? An Instrument? The arrangement?

Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix: two masterful musicians, but with very different thinking styles and approaches to life in general… While both conquered the world and carved their name into #musical history… they did it in very different ways. We haven’t had the privilege of a definitive KAI style for either of these greats, but we can make some educated estimates based on their reported #behaviour… Based on Jimi’s frequent smashing up of guitars, endless ground-breaking, ‘out-there’ guitar riffs, and his refusal to adhere to “convention”, we can guess that he was a more #innovative individual. Meanwhile, Eric Clapton often recorded covers – most famously, Bob Marley’s “I Shot The Sheriff” – which he would incrementally build upon. He also often collaborated with the same musicians over the years – consistently building on the groundwork already laid. He was known as a skilled perfector and developer of existing musical #concepts. We can guess from his public persona that he was a more adaptive thinker. There’s no doubt that both were extremely #creative and very talented individuals – but they achieved this in very different styles! So, there’s no right or wrong way to be creative or solve problems. You can be on either side of the spectrum (or a balance in the middle), and still achieve enormous creative #success. #ericclapton #jimihendrix #rockstars #guitarists #musicians #musicindustry

The Perils of the Music Business: Legends, Contracts, and Lost Fortunes The music industry has a notorious history of exploitation, and even the biggest stars have faced financial battles against the very industry that elevated them to fame. The Rolling Stones lost control of their early catalog to manager Allen Klein, while The Beatles saw their publishing rights slip away through complex deals, even ending up owned by Michael Jackson. Billy Joel and Bruce Springsteen both fought years-long battles to regain control after mismanagement. David Bowie and Elton John faced crippling losses due to questionable contracts and managers, while Prince famously rebelled against Warner Bros., changing his name to protest his lack of ownership. Tina Turner had to start over after losing rights in her divorce from Ike Turner, and Leonard Cohen was left nearly bankrupt in his seventies after his manager stole from him. Artists often lack business knowledge and end up in contracts filled with hidden clauses and royalty-sharing schemes that drain their earnings. Today’s artists must educate themselves on contracts and demand transparency. The hard truth? Fame doesn’t guarantee financial freedom. True independence comes from understanding and controlling your rights. #MusicBusiness #ArtistsRights #EntertainmentIndustry #FinancialLiteracy #RollingStones #TheBeatles #BillyJoel #BruceSpringsteen #EltonJohn #DavidBowie #Prince

Three things I’ve learned from social media. 1. If you like Pink Floyd. You are a ‘musical connoisseur’ and respected. If you don’t like Pink Floyd. You have no credibility and are a lunatic. 2. If you like Led Zeppelin. You are a ‘musical connoisseur’ and respected. If you don’t like Led Zeppelin. You have no credibility and are a lunatic. 3. If you like Jimi Hendrix. You are a ‘musical connoisseur’ and respected. If you like Jimi Hendrix, but believe there have been better guitarists since his time (like Michael Schenker or Eddie Van Halen). You have no credibility and are a lunatic. #music #logic
