Post 6: An expert / person in your field you admire


His name is Muddy Waters, he was born on 4th april, 1913, in Issaquena, Misisipi and lived until 1983. He was a blues rock musician and usually called The Father of Chicago Blues. 

Muddy in 1960 did a tour to England and that was the beginning of everything. 




This is the most important show and I saw in a video Paul McCartney was there, I don't know if it's true but I heard this in a video!


There are a lot of musicians that have been influenced by Muddy Waters, some of them are:

- The Rolling Stones

They called like this because the single "Rollin' Stone" by Muddy Waters





      Rollin' Stone









The Rolling Stones's first album all songs are covers. In the first part, numer 2 they knew this song by Muddy Waters and also in the second partm number 1.





- Eric Clapton

When he was in Cream, the band recorded "Rolling and Tumbling" a song by Muddy too.













Because of my love by The Rolling Stones I found this folk American music and I really love this, I find a kind of mirage in this music, in those sounds, in those lyrics.

Post 5: How can your major make the world a better place?

The major that I am studying can make the world a better place in two mainly topics:


music                    and              science/architecture


and I will take the music way.

I know that being a Sound Engineer can make possible all the music, since recording, mixing and reproduction music. But how? well, if don't exists microphones, music players, instruments... we can not listen music in the way we do in these days. (This applicate to Engineer in general). In these case, all these pieces of technology can make more people listen music and that is beautiful because I know that they life will be better with music.

I searched one example: "Harry's house" by Harry Styles. 




In the art, many people have to work hardly to make art possible and exactly in this case the sound is "perfect" because of Sound Engineer's work! obviously the artists make all the art, but this never will sounding like this without all these Engineer's work                    


Tracklist
Sound Engineer's names


But how this can make a life better? I have seeing a lot of young people listening this record and I know, I really know that this production mark how this generation see the life and gives them a really good time.

I want to be part of this generation experience, I know that something big is happening and I want to make my best and I will see myself stressed out but satisfied haha.





Changes to my study programme

I am studying sound engineering here in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Chile. It is an undergraduate degree of 5 years, or 10 seme...
