Re: "Engineers"
The use of engineers are personal. It could be to create a whole track itself, or to 'help' in some areas in which the person didn't have the proper knowledge. Glenn Morrison is quite a talented producer himself, but he got Deadmau5 to do "Contact", fully. MAYBE Glenn gave him a midi file of the notes/chords that should be played, but otherwise, it was entirely composed by Joel. Same goes for David Newsum (also known as Activa's stunt double), its got Activa written all over it ... but a slight difference, which could be Newsums' input. Maybe they have 'co-producers', maybe that's their own way of saying "I dont know shit" or maybe it really is "I'm a little technically disabled". Either way, I don't care as long as they put out a good track. Those who can lay a decent track down by themselves without the aid of an (assistant?) engineer at all can be classified as a 'producer' in their own right.
Re: "Album"
Honestly, I think some tracks would be good, some would be so-so. If he's taking this long after he said he started it, he better come up with something no one ever thought of.
