KikkyMonk Posted May 11, 2001 Share Posted May 11, 2001 Im about to copyright some of my bands stuff. Is there a "bible" out there for musicians? Actually what books do you consider indespensible? either for keyboards, synths, recording, live sounds... Anything??? Im looking to start a book collection on anythinga and everything to do with music. Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dansouth Posted May 11, 2001 Share Posted May 11, 2001 You can start by searching Amazon. There's so much stuff out there that I can't make any recommendations unless I know more about your interests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KikkyMonk Posted May 11, 2001 Author Share Posted May 11, 2001 I think a better question would be what books have you found useful regardless of the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenElevenShadows Posted May 11, 2001 Share Posted May 11, 2001 For practical music business stuff, Donald Passman's "All You Need to Know about the Music Business" isn't bad. "Sound Advice: A Musician's Guide to the Recording Studio" by Wayne Wadhams has creative, useful, and easy to understand advice for both the novice and the experienced recordist, whether using a commercial recording studio or trying it at home for the first time. This is the only book on the mechanics and creative side of recording that I truly enjoy and find myself going back to. Brian Eno: His Music and the Vertical Color of Sound by Eric Tamm is fascinating. Seven Years in Tibet by Henrich Harrer for determination, self-reliance, adventure, awe, and escapism. "Women" by Charles Bukowski for a slightly seedier side to, uh, relationships with women? "Finnegan's Wake" by James Joyce, for the sheer fun of it!! http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif ------------------ Ken/Eleven Shadows/d i t h er/nectar ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ music*travel photos*tibet*lots of stuff "Sangsara" "Irian Jaya" & d i t h er CDs available! http://www.elevenshadows.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ken Lee Photography - photos and books Eleven Shadows ambient music The Mercury Seven-cool spacey music Linktree to various sites Instagram Nightaxians Video Podcast Eleven Shadows website Ken Lee Photography Pinterest Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
