All aspects of production are handled exclusively by Scott M. Rifkin of The Exploration Project.
The preproduction consists of the development of musical concepts and visions, the hiring of musicians and artists and the development of the musical chemistry needed to record.
The Production section requires the setting of a schedule for the use of the home studio; communicate the preliminary concepts of the music in its raw form and finding out what visions and concepts should be added to the project from the musicians and artists hired. Additionally, copyrighting; in which the artists and musicians are fairly credited on the copyright form for contributions to the work they created is completed. Forms are sent out and payments are made.
Post production involves the duplication, marketing, distribution and the development of all the music for live performances. Prior to duplication, all audio masters are check for clarity and volume via a pair of Stax Omega Heaphones with a Stax SRM007t Tubed Amplifier (see website photo if interested.) Duplication is done with Diskfaktory of Irvine, California. Additional activities include; Looking for Venues to perform, renting out venues for self developed performances, such as with Smash Recording Studios, Sending copies of finished releases to CDBABY.COM , Various communications via e mail in regard to inquires, reviews and postings on other websites.
From start to finish this is what an Independent Artist must do.
