The Rise of Internet Music "Experts"

[@BoloDaProducer]

Great video let’s keep the Conversation Going!!!

[@tigerpantherrobotghost]

You kind of talk like the transition to DAW based workflows was a sudden thing. As you would know, early DAW design is based in, and existed for a long time alongside "analogue" studios (DAT machines, sequencers etc). It feels like your description of this transition ignores the role engineers played in this slow transition toward heightened fidelity, and characterizes an era of engineers as generally less competent at something they were actively involved in.

Apart from the music shenanigans, i am happen to be an IT guy. And in IT we have a shit ton of certificates. My personal take on this - mostly this is something vendors are coming up with to generate an additional revenue - to get one you need to pay, the price could be anywhere between 100 and 1000 (in rare occasion higher) smackers. I saw a decent amount of folks with the certificates who knew absolutely nothing, because the just memorized the right answers to get their exam pass. For me certificate is more like an ego boost thing.

[@uzadegotone]

Even my teachers on my music production course said to me certificates don’t do shit unless you want to work more in TV commercials etc but even for that is not necessary bolo is right

These same 'music experts' were the ones paid by unison to say how great their shitty midi pack was. 🤣

[@JaggyP1109]

Sounds like he mad someone told him he didnt know what he was talking about. And it pissed him off.

[@henrievery-3eye]

Problem with experts is there is always one smarter or thinking they have an edge which may or may not be true depending on the results they have

[@elliotalewel3163]

The big benefit of having a degree and/or certification, given you went through a decent program, is that you know how to efficiently troubleshoot a variety of issues that come about while recording and mixing based on technical knowledge of sound, electronics, and recording software. Past that, real world experience is everything. Obviously they can't put you through every possible scenario for every different genre in recording school. The best engineers are the ones that know the fundamentals but aren't afraid to stray from them when the recording could benefit from that. A lot of recording school graduates are just a bit too rigid and are scared to take chances because, well, that's how they were taught unfortunately.

Please tell him to use FEWER WORDS!!

[@BoloDaProducer]

No!!! I love Long Video!

[@dakota-sessions]

How is this still a debate in 2025?

[@beatz04]

Where does this idea come from that having a certificate and studying "under a great master" in a studio is somehow mutually exclusive ? I'm sure there are lots of people who have done both. I feel like his whole rant is built on a strawman argument and/or a rather hypothetical situation.

[@ReeWebster]

Yeh man, I studied music at a small college and almost every teacher had some famous credential.

[@arkdmind]

This guy just keeps on going it stupid discussions. Theres no single truth, having a certification is always better, but doesn't automatically make you good, as well as not having makes you good or bad. Prejudice is just prejudice, wether you go one way or the orher. This guy probably needs some certification on understanding shit.

[@beatz04]

All these people with half knowledge trying to pretend an education is wasted time smh. I wanna see Bolo record an acoustic drum kit or a horn section, then we can talk.

[@scamculture]

[@beatz04]

I think this is more about an inferior complex than anything.

[@Determined-fj6wt]

So is this the producer hater era what's going on

[@LukeIcardMusic]

I went to full sail back when they were not recognized as an established entity (in the industry). This was back in 2010-2011 back when you were laughed at if you went to school for audio engineering. I graduated and left and went to work under many amazing engineers in nashville and kansas city. I kept that full sail stuff under wraps boy did i ever! Until recently, i told a few of my close artist friends i went to full sail. They were surprised but still continued to work with me. Getting a degree in audio engineering used to be a laughed at, someone make it make sense.

[@EndlessMeece]

Bozo is way too whiny for a grown man. Considers himself a thought leader in this space (on what merit, I have no idea) but still has an intro stinger. Also, side note, but no less important: Barry John's never shuts the **** up. Not just about protools. That man has been crying in front of the camera about how wealthy he is and how much insane gear he has and how unfair the world is to him since he started the channel. And when I say cry, there were moments where it was literally cry. Filmed himself blubbering over internet music producers. Then edited it. Then uploaded it. It may still exist on his channel if you feel like punishing yourself with unfathomable levels of cringe. Fina Thought: BusyWorks is completely delusional, perhaps even diagnosed schizo in real life, but damn if he isn't infinitely more tolerable than Bozo. He is like ice picks in my ear canals. I love Weaver. Weaver so s3xay. Bolo is poo. Bolo wants to be Taetro when he grows up to be a big kid. Taetro is my mom. Weaver so handsome. -->CommentSectionPoetry

[@jackbauer1805]

Get off weaver’s 🍆. He’s turned into nothing but a troll

[@beatz04]

The "on what merit" question should be asked more often.

[@gammypage]

He didn't actually say anything just repeated the same thing over and over..

[@beatz04]

Certificates might not make you an expert, but being a KZbinr doesn't make you a "full time music producer" either. Just sayin'

[@apexone5502]

Dude has produced platinum hits. He’s not merely a KZbinr.

[@juanchotpee2]

The amount of times he said "I've had people who have came to my studio" stressed me out.

[@BoloDaProducer]

Because it true

[@juanchotpee2]

@BoloDaProducer the english though, bro. They have been to your studio or they have come to your studio. I'm not doubting your personal success as a producer here big dawg, I'm getting triggered over grammar that would have got me some heavy stink eye, at least, even in primary school.

Screw certification. I haven't found 1 person who ever had a mcdonald's music school certification who I would let work for me. My certification is 40 platinum records and 10,000 beats sold. Oh and yeah...Protools sucks.

[@Maplefoxx-vl2ew]

there is a ton of BS info about over mixing your music and it's almost always from ppl who went to audio engineer schools bro it's funny to me to be honest. i told you i know Cirkuit right? like his dad has known my dad for over 20 yrs.
