Digital Music: Can Streaming Save Music Sales?
In Sweden, South Korea, Norway, and Finland, more music is streamed than downloaded. In fact, 91% of music income in Sweden comes from streaming (that’s because Spotify is a Swedish company that was founded in Sweden). With the launch of iTunes Radio and the anticipated launch of a YouTube streaming service, we wonder, “can streaming save music sales?” See what this piece by Maddy Savage of BBC News has to say about that.
Music Licensing: ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ Takes Music Licensing To The Next Level
It isn’t often that we get to learn about the vision behind the musical selections — including licensed music, commissioned music and collaborations — directly from the music supervisors of entertainment products; especially music supervisors of video games. So, this interview of Rockstar Games’ music supervisor Ivan Pavlovich by The Hollywood Reporter on his work for Grand Theft Auto V is a rare peak behind the curtain of creating the sonic identity of one of the top video games of all time. And boy is it insightful!
Last Year I Had An Idea…Today I Have A Growing Startup
Last year I came up with a concept to promote indie artists alongside major artists on a premium entertainment service displayed on HDTVs inside retail stores. Months later ChazBo Music was born as a hip new digital media startup in the music tech space. Today, we program over 140,000 hours of streaming content every day across the US (4.34 Million Hours Per Month)…generating millions of views and exposure for our artists. Soon, we will do the same for brands and advertisers. #music #videos #musicpromotion #musicmarketing
