It's just depressing for a movie lover like me to see a film like Joel Schumacher's 1990 Flatliners remade. Why? Can anyone come out with something we haven't seen before or at least from a fresh new POV.
Recording costs in the music business are borne by artists, not record companies. Record companies commonly make loans to artists (all-in advances) for these costs and recoup them from royalties. With the exception of jazz and classical artists, new major label artists can spend between $100,000 and $500,000 to make a record, but recording budgets of one million dollars and more are not uncommon.
âIn our day, when you came in, you could do a demo with an artist on tape in about an hour. It was about half the price of what it costs now. In the 70âs, you could record a song for anywhere between $350-500 a song. Studio demos were expensive.In the world we live in today, you can make $2,000 go a long way â much farther than previously. Back in the day, it would cost you $2,000 just for recording quality tapes to get you in the front door. We cater to budget projects here.
