My understanding is that producers help guide the songs. Recording engineers flat out record the songs. That's what Steve Albini refers to himself as.

Originally posted by TheDirector217:Let's edit that. "Rick Rubin's a bad producer. Period…The man hasn't put out any classic albums. His catalog is DISGUSTING." I'll agree with that.
Rick Rubin's a bad man. Period. Any so called music fan can't dispute that. Really anyone, period. That man was part of the blueprint of hip-hop and has put out too many classics to name. His catalog is DISGUSTING.
He's not even a producer in terms of technical producing. He doesn't touch the board. He has an engineer do that. Supposedly, he's paid for using his "ears."
My God, if you really feel Cult, Red Hot Chili Peppers, System of a Down, Johnny Cash, Beastie Boys and Slayer albums are the greatest examples of creativity and originality in the modern age than I feel bad for you and your high blood pressure medication.
Your fratboy roots are showing TheDirector217.
Being "part of the blueprint of hip-hop" is something to be proud of?
