Phil Harding balances autobiographical discussion of events and relationships with academic analysis to offer poignant points on the value of pure popular music, particularly in relation to BoyBands and how creative pop production and songwriting teams function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded here are practical resources, such as recording studio equipment lists, producer business deal examples and a 12-step mixing technique, where Harding expands upon previously released material to explain how âStay Another Dayâ by East 17 changed his approach to mixing forever. However, it is important to note that Harding almost downplays his involvement in his career. At no point is he center stage; he humbly discusses his position within the greater scheme of events. \u003ci\u003ePop Music Production \u003c\/i\u003eoffers cutting-edge analysis of a genre rarely afforded academic attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at lecturers and students in the subject fields of Music Production, Audio Engineering, Music Technology, Popular Songwriting Studies and Popular Music Culture.
