Abstract
Abstract: Evolving recording technologies presented new challenges and creative possibilities for audio workers in contemporary Pakistan. The availability of digital media in the 1990s led to opposing generational views on how changes in gear, roles, and methods would impact high-fidelity production. In this article, I compare my experiences as a recording artist at two studios, the analog studio at the Sanjan Nagar institute of Philosophy and Arts in Lahore, and the digital Coke Studio in Karachi. My reflexive account examines the friction between seasoned artists who remain committed to analog sound and a younger generation eager to embrace digital innovation.- The author retains copyright over the work.
