I like the recent Selena Gomez song, 'Bad Liar' — in parts of it she genuinely sounds like P J Harvey, from the 'Dry' era. |

It's crazy, she's in her mid 20s and could easily be a freshman in high school without anyone noticing an age disparity |

The backing track and vocal arrangement in by Beyonce is actually fucking insanely good. Gets really intense halfway through. The delay and harmonies are all fucked up. Another guilty pleasure is one. Vocals are very cliche but something about the whole thing works. Moody one. |

my subconscious/id/shadow really really REALLY enjoys even though my conscious/super-ego/persona considers that shameful and ridiculous almost all parts of my self are fine with liking , though. it just makes me feel like living in a world of perverted psychopaths, that should be destroyed rather sooner than later. |

She has a few really good tracks, must be working with some great producers and her voice isn't obnoxious. |

Torn is one of my dad's favourite tracks of all time, along with Walking on Sunshine. |

These great producers what do they do in their free time? How is there not one commercial great producer that has a known solo project that we know and appreciate? I'm so jelous of the outboard they use. But many known innovators didn't have that gear. That's what made many of the early 90's electronic music that we enjoy. |

A couple of them are famous in their own right, Prince is the most notable example. Sia wrote a fair few hit singles too before she became famous. I imagine the vast majority of these people are middle aged men though and don't exactly have the image to suit singing the songs for teenage girl performers. |

no i didn't mean commercial releases. someone who produces commercial hits but also does what they enjoy in their own time. there are electronic music mastering engineers that do their own productions like tobias for example. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I'm sure there's loads but you don't hear about it because they never talk about it. I don't think Joey Negro mentions his Take That productions and Take That aren't likely to get asked about it. I just had a flick through the producers on the first christina aguilera album and half of them have their own bands etc with releases from before they go in to production. Maybe producing commercial tracks is where unsuccessful musicians transition to if they're lucky enough to avoid getting a day job? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah could be. i don't think it's easy to produce commercial tracks but i also don't think it's as hard as some claim it to be. |

I would imagine that it largely falls in to one of two main areas. Emulating what is currently in fashion or trying to predict what will be in fashion next. If you're entrenched in the corporate Sony/Universal etc world you're probably doing the former which definitely seems easier and you'll be tackling things with money making for the label (and a steady paycheck for you) in mind. Although if you're in that world working with manufactured artists you've probably had all of the decisions made for you by committee, who knows? Would love to talk to someone in that position. If you're doing the latter that's when you probably end up using ghost producers and producers with more interest in non-pop music. Like Dr. Dre or Diplo using ghost producers who never get credited or Hudson Mohawke being plucked from relative obscurity to produce Kanye and Drake because your particular style is on the cusp of going mainstream. |

any pop tracks that I've heard whilst out and about in the past take on a speshul meaning when i hear them again after a while... dunno if any one else gets it but they really remind me of the time that they were first out. Like Cate Nash was on earlier and instantly its 2008 again. So p much any tracks like that are guilty (cos totally retrospective) pleasure 4 me. |
