Hello everyone!
once again you have decided to read my blog. hahaha
as you read in the title Should Music Producers Have Music Theory Knowledge? for some people they may think " why are you asking this? isn't the answer obviously yes?" but I think it depends.
I know a lot of producers who don't have music theory knowledge and they're making good music even hits. So that leads me to think that music producers don't always need music theory knowledge.
But Wait! before you cuss me out. hear me out.
I made that statement because I have realized that even with all my music knowledge most days when Im making music I hardly ever use it. when I come up with chord progressions I just know what I want to hear and know what doesn't sound good. Also I find when I think about making music from a theoretical point it isn't as creative as it usually is. But, we still need basic knowledge of music theory because I think without the foundation you can't really move forward in your music career.
So, in conclusion music theory knowledge is necessary but not mandatory.
