I'd like to meet:

CGM PRE-PRODUCTION

A little time spent ahead of the recording process can save you a lot of money in the end. I will work with you to make your songs the best they can be before you step into a studio. Working out arrangements, lyrics, melodies, harmonies etc...are all things you can do inexpensively. ___________________________________________________________
CGM PRODUCTION

As your Producer I will strive to create a positive recording environment and team oriented atmosphere to produce music that you the artist are happy with (why not...it’s your music!). Music Production is a subjective art in itself and everyone hears things differently. I believe that the artist must be comfortable with the recording process and the music itself or they can’t perform to the best of their ability. Therefore, the final creative decisions are always made with utmost regard for the artists input. ___________________________________________________________

Canadian band in need funding for your CD project...check out FACTOR for grant and loan information

Click here to apply for a FACTOR grant

FACTOR, The Foundation Assisting Canadian Talent on Recordings, was founded in 1982 by CHUM Limited, Moffat Communications and Rogers Broadcasting Limited, in conjunction with the Canadian Independent Record Producers Association (CIRPA) and the Canadian Music Publishers Association (CMPA). Standard Broadcasting merged its Canadian Talent Library (CTL) development fund with FACTOR’s in 1985.

As a private non-profit organization, FACTOR is dedicated to providing assistance toward the growth and development of the Canadian independent recording industry. The foundation administers the voluntary contributions from sponsoring radio broadcasters as well as two components of the Department of Canadian Heritage’s newly formed Canada Music Fund Council’s programs to support the Canadian music industry. FACTOR has been managing federal funds since the inception of the Sound Recording Development Program in 1986 (now known as the Canada Music Fund Council).

Support is provided through various programs which all aid in the development of the industry. The funds assist Canadian recording artists and songwriters in having their material produced, their videos created and support for domestic and international touring and showcasing opportunities as well as providing support for Canadian record labels, distributors, recording studios, video production companies, producers, engineers, directors – all those facets of the infrastructure which must be in place in order for artists and Canadian labels to progress into the international arena.

FACTOR started out with an annual budget of $200,000 and is currently providing in excess of $14 million annually to support the Canadian music industry.

Canada has an abundance of talent competing nationally and internationally and The Department of Canadian Heritage and FACTOR’s sponsors can be very proud that through their generous contributions they have made a difference in the careers of so many success stories.
