Record producer
From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
A record producer (or music producer) is a person who takes charge of a recording session, in the same kind of way that a movie director is in charge of filming movies. Record producers help musicians and recording artists to make singles and albums.
