It also appears that you can read minds - you knew what Al would say.
So....what am I thinking right now?

Al I'm not talking about that part of the failure. I'm talking about mp3.com and independent artists making it . I should have clarified. When mp3.com came out everyone had an account and thought they'd get somewhere with their music. But the great stuff floated to the top and the crap sank.

Ask yourself, "When is the last time I've seen Al give thanks or give anyone a pat on the back for their success?"
Not a very nice fellow.
Fun as shit to read when he's trolling, but otherwise, relatively impotent to anyone who has read for a while.
You only post here to troll me now and you showed up to post to troll me, troll. This post isn't about Popmann's success anyway, it's about his business packing up.

well that simplifies it by too much to even get into, but I do agree that the dream was big back then for many.

Al, you do not represent "indies". You represent someone making a demo... period. There are "Indie" bands making records as we speak with more drum tracks than you have in any one of your songs. I'm talking about working bands. Some bands want the BEST sonics that they can get for their album. They're going for broke, because they don't want to stay "indie". Pop has a lot of talent and this is a GREAT deal. You just don't get it.
You aren't even familiar with my music, you fraud. Or you'd know I have numerous songs featuring pro producers and great drummers. You don't know nothin' about nothin', you just chimed in cause you're an asshole with a big mouth.
You're the kind of dope who is clearly impressed with 32 tracks of drums just for the sake of it! Ya dope.
If you think this is such a great deal, show Popmann the money, it would bring me pleasure to see you waste it. but no, you won't put your money where your mouth is, you just wanted to be a twat.

100 bucks for a quality mix is stupid cheap for anyone, indie or not. The key to getting a good product from an engineer is to listen to some of his stuff. Everyone has a "style" and a type of music that they are good at. If they dont usually mix your type of music then use someone who does. The chances are you will be a lot happier in the end and the money will be VERY well spent. Sorry to hear you are giving it up Pop. Its the reality of todays music scene. The cheap DAW has almost completely killed the studio star.

I'm very familiar with your music. I've listened to about half of every song that you've ever posted.

If I had the 100 bucks, I'd let you work your magic in a minute, Pop. I've heard what you can do, and regardless of anything said on this thread, when a guy(or girl) know their shit, they are worth their weight in gold, and you KNOW YOUR SHIT!

You're either a total liar or really stupid then. I'll go with the latter.

If it's stupid cheap, you go buy some mixes from him.

Sorry to hear you are closing the doors POP ... We are down sizing ways to keep the revenue coming.
... Maybe just tracking in the studio /little or no engineering...?
We use to charge $750 for a 8 hour shift w/limited-engineering. It's the mastering/mixing the clients seem to fore go > hand them some type of WAV & they are on their way.
We still do videos monthly > but to compete for the clients price point > we just shoot the video and hand over the cards , they usually can't afford the editing.

Did you pay the producers or drummers? If so, you were taken advantage of. It's too bad that no one was around to warn you. Ya gotta admit that's pretty funny too. The saddest thing about this thread is we're talking about a guy losing his job here. Not to mention a piece of his dream. And Scott, you're barging in here and kicking him while he's down. Frankly, that's pretty shitty of you. And I actually agree with your premise that not everyone might want or need a mix like Jamie provides. But it's still pretty fucking shitty the way you're expressing your opinion.
I think you're overboard on the empathy here. He doesn't seem so down to me, he's voluntarily packing it in, if he made money mixing songs he was lucky to begin with. and I'd add that guys like him and Havlicek demean indies often, they usually put down that I even dare to do my songs, are far more dismissive to me than I've ever been to them. Luckily for me I don't respect them at all or it may bother me, but I find it kind of pathetic that every time somebody says something about Popmann who is often a pompous ass in his own right, some guy like you goes out on a limb to defend him. Do you really not see all the snide shit he's posted here over the years or do you idol-worship him or something and you're blind to it ?

Name the songs I'm talking about. Of course you can't. You've never heard them. You're just a total phony, sucking ass. You are an ass sucker. You have ass on your tongue as you post.

Chimp, if you'd stop trolling me you wouldn't have a problem, but you need the kind of acceptance you get believing that you're part of something, because you're a timid lil' shit with low self-esteem. It probably started when you flunked 5th grade and could never quite make it to high school.

Lord have mercy you're so pathetic and predictable it's astonishing sometimes Al. Trying to spin your childish bad behavior into you being some kind of "protector of the indies", is lame even for you. Put up lard ass and show where I've "demeaned indies". What you call "indies" are simply the millions of people who've bought recorders, and the vast majority of them (while they may be having fun, which is great) aren't doing anything more than doodling around.
Luckily for me I don't respect them at all or it may bother me, but I find it kind of pathetic that every time somebody says something about Popmann who is often a pompous ass in his own right, some guy like you goes out on a limb to defend him. Do you really not see all the snide shit he's posted here over the years or do you idol-worship him or something and you're blind to it ?
It really IS lucky for you that you've developed the defense mechanism that allows you to only "say" you respect people who (astonishingly!) think you're doing something worthwhile. ***So you revert to your tired come back that someone who is calling out your nonsense is actually defending someone else. There is a difference between calling out an asshole and defending the person the asshole is dumping on. You need new material tubby, because if this thread shows anything, it's how much people respect Jamie and how little they respect you (and exactly why).
