Changes in the process of producing music
A ____
Because producers were now so important in making music, many artists and singers decided
to become producers too. They began to write the music and produce it.
B ____
But with the invention of tape recording this changed. Many small independent record studios
started and you paid for these studios by the hour. These studios had excellent equipment and
some became very big and famous. Everyone wanted to record in them.
C ____
This happens now with hip hop music. The record producers always write the background
music and do the traditional record producer work too. They make the music then give it to
artists to add the words.
D ____
The process of producing music has changed a lot in the last hundred years. In the first half of
the twentieth century, big record companies produced music and a record producer was the
person in charge of the recordings. He/she chose the musicians and the people who worked
the recording machines. Sometimes he/she chose the songs for the artist, but songwriters
wrote the music. Everyone worked in big record studios.
E ____
The latest computer software has also changed the music business. Producers don’t need
studios now. The software is cheap and you can use it on your home computer, so these days
people often write, record and produce hit music from their own homes.
F ____
In these independent studios, record producers’ jobs were different. They chose the songs and
wrote the background music; they were in charge of the recording sessions; they also helped
with the marketing and selling of records. They became very important in the music
production process.

Part 2:
You are going to read Hannah’s letter to Mike. Read the text carefully and do the
task that follows.
Hi Mike!
I’ve just had the most fantastic experience of my life. We went to Lapland! It was a school
trip (one week instead of school) and it was fantastic. We went reindeer spotting with a Sami
guide. He took us into the tundra where we walked for ages in the freezing cold, but suddenly,
in the middle of all the empty snow, we saw a huge herd of reindeer.
We visited a Sami camp too. We saw people making knives and leather clothes and
houses – all from reindeer. Their houses seemed really warm and comfortable. We also went
on a sled ride with husky dogs – with a driver. We went really fast and it was so exciting, and
guess what – we found Father Christmas. He was hiding behind a tree (only joking!).
One afternoon we drove north and stayed there deep in the Arctic Circle. We didn’t
experience the midnight sun – that only happens in summer – but we saw the most amazing
Northern Lights. They were fantastic, absolutely stunning. You see so many colours dancing
around the sky.
But I think the best thing was we stayed in an ICE hotel. Can you believe it … a hotel
made just of ice? You sleep on ice beds, you sit on ice chairs … OK, with reindeer skins on
top, and don’t worry – the hotel’s a nice, warm –5C! The hotel’s in a place called
Jukkasjarvi. It’s very small and quiet with just a museum and a restaurant. But the museum’s
really interesting. It has an exhibition about the Sami way of life.
This was absolutely the best trip I’ve ever been on. Go there too – you really must.
Love
Hannah
