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.

Traditional studio operators can spend anywhere from $10,000 to $30,000 because of the need for more equipment to capture quality sound. By the 2000s, aspiring producers were achieving those goals by recording through their home computers for as little as $1,500.
