Nigerian music artistes have been thriving under Analog music recording over decades until
there was a thirst for clean and more purified sound output which brought about the digital
music recording system that swept across the entire recording process till date. The digital
music system changed the way music is produced and sold. Other influences are the role of a
studio engineer and the producer in the production process. The internet digital format and
industry standardization are believed to have an influence on the music industry. This article
tends to explore the impact of the digital recording on the Nigeria music artistes especially
the southeastern part of the country. Findings from this study will bring to bear the problems
that the Nigeria artiste are facing as a result of digital influence on the entire music
production process and possible solution to them.
