Für alle unter Euch, die der englischen Sprache mächtig sind: Der Autor Eugene Foley liefert meiner Meinung nach, ein kurzes und knackiges Statement zum Thema Hit-Produktion, welches ich hier posten möchte… Eigentlich hört sich das doch relativ einfach an… 
Also, nichts wie ran an die Hits. Sollte jemand unter Euch sein, der bereits die eine oder andere Nummer in der Schublade hat, und auch an eine Veröffentlichung denkt, stehe ich gerne zur Seite…
Hier das Zitat:
“You need every advantage that you can find to make it in the competitive music industry. Hit songs are the most important element in securing the interest of consumers, radio, press, A&R, publishers, managers and booking agents. Compare your material to successful songs within your genre. Not in terms of recording quality, but areas such as lyrics, melody and arrangement. If your songs do not measure up – rewrite.
If your music is rock, alternative, pop or R&B, keep the introduction under 10 seconds in the songs chosen to be singles. Reach the chorus between 38 and 42 seconds. In rap, reach the chorus around the 58 second mark, since the verses are traditionally longer than in pop. Keep the song’s total time to under 3:30. I recommend this arrangement: Introduction, Verse One, Chorus, Verse Two, Chorus, Bridge/Solo and the Chorus again.
Once your songs and press kit are at the highest level possible, build your team of professionals and formulate an intelligent, realistic game plan. To attract the attention of top labels, publishers, managers and booking agents – build a strong buzz with college radio, favorable press, touring, CD sales and Internet marketing, at the minimum.”
