Since the turn of the millennium, both<br />
the record and recording industries have<br />
gone through a major upheaval.<br />
Because of the collapse of physical media<br />
sales (CDs) and the minimal margins<br />
on streaming, the record industry is a lot<br />
smaller than it used to be, but it seems to<br />
have now found its footing.<br />
In this issue we interviewed four Brooklyn<br />
label insiders about how they operate<br />
within this new scenario. <strong>The</strong> result is a<br />
feature many of our musician readers<br />
should find informative, and at times<br />
even surprising.<br />
Recording also went through a similar<br />
transition caused by the rise of home<br />
recording, which empowered the artist—<br />
while killing many professional studios.<br />
<strong>The</strong> advice we’ll be providing for musicians<br />
about recording is even better: six<br />
live classes about mixing with some of<br />
the best producers in the world, at the<br />
fourth edition of the <strong>NYC</strong> Mixcon, hosted<br />
at the Manhattan Center on July 21-22.<br />
Hope to see you there!<br />
