| dc.description | Recording is the process of documentation of sound or performance for subsequent reproduction or broadcast by the use of gadgets such as microphones, studio monitors and so on. Before 1877, people in the world had no idea about sound recording and could compose and do live performances accompanied with musical instruments for example the voice, the piano and many others. In 1877 the story of sound production began by Thomas Edison who invented the phonograph. So, the idea went on spreading throughout the whole world and at around 1940 and 1970 Ugandans also started travelling to Kenya to have their music recorded due to lack of gadgets in the country.
Song production is a process of overseeing the whole process of creating a song from recording vocals or instruments to creating instrumental arrangements, coaching the singer and instrumentalists on how to perform the piece of melody. | en_US |
