<p>Actually, pedobear, if you have evidence of prior recording or producing, good marks, etc. you might want to look into NYU’s Clive Davis recording arts program at Tisch. It SPECIFICALLY has a “producer” stream, but it also requires a portfolio and examples of shows you’ve produced/promoted etc. It is part of the Tisch school, not the music school, although you would indeed still take a more rudimentary level of theory etc. That said, it is a hard admit (about 1 in 10 for 30 of 300) and many of the applicants are also performers, since their program can suit contemporary musicians who want to perform AND produce.
Hope that helps. Good luck.
PS The program does indeed intern with major record labels, btw.</p>
