(…And 8 of them were mine.)
It’s been a pleasure writing for Janice Brown and David Weiss of SonicScoop again this year.
2013 was a huge one. We saw record levels of traffic and the launch of a new content network that has begun to join together some of the best music production blogs on the web, including SonicScoop, The Recording Revolution, The Pro Audio Files, and my own digital magazine, Trust Me, I’m a Scientist.
Out today is a complete list of the top 10 stories of the year from Scoop. I wrote eight of them. Editor David Weiss wrote another two himself. (And who knows, maybe in 2014, you could start working toward writing one of them yourself.)
Here they are:
#10 – The Uninsured Musician’s Guide to the Affordable Care Act
#9 – Spotify Payouts Revisited – What does it pay, & what should artists demand?
#8 – Acoustic Treatment for the Small Studio
#7 – The Best Snare Drums for the Recording Studio
#6 – Industry Intel: Recording Engineer Salaries, by Industry & Region.
#5 – Why (Almost) Everything You Knew About Bit Depth is Probably Wrong
#4 – The Best Small Tube Amps for the Recording Studio
#3 – Mick Guzauski & Mixing Daft Punk’s “Random Access Memories.” (by David Weiss)
#2 – Vince Clarke’s Synth Kingdom in Brooklyn. (by David Weiss)
And, #1 – The Big List of Free Pro Tools Plugins.
Thanks as always, for reading, and enjoy.
Stay tuned for the first 2014 issue of Scientist, which begins launching tomorrow afternoon.
