New Music Industry Ideas

[HardRocker]

Hey all, my name's Adam. I am a student in Boston working to break out into the music industry. I am a music journalist/entrepreneur/visionary working on a number of projects that will redefine how we think about music in the digital age. I write a music blog called NewRockNews43.blogspot.com which covers underground bands and artists from around the world. Check it out. If you are an artists, know an artist, or are involved in the entertainment industry, send me an email. I'm always looking for new opportunities and possibilities.

I also run a show on my college radio station called Underground Takeover, so if you want a taste of the music I deal with (cross-genre), check out the Facebook pages for my sites, and let me know what you think!!

Peace. -Adam

Hey Adam,

I think a cool idea for music is if you developed a music technology that could take a digital music file and spin it into a music video ready for youtube etc. Similar to a site like Animoto but with a musical twist. Also check out a site like epresskitz as they are on the forefront of music marketing and artist exposure. Also another crazy change in the music industry is now Google music is getting involved. "Google Music" just launched as a competitor to Itunes which is pretty interesting. I also always thought no one has tapped the royalty free music genre in the right manner yet. I just can not put my finger on the way to go about that one. So many people just love music and its an amazing part of life. Best of luck in your quests. I deal with music businesses and people everyday so I am right there with you.

Daveb1,

That's actually an interesting idea. I may do some research on that and see what I come up with. What sort of work do you do in the music business? I have a few ideas I think would be interesting to explore. What sort of entrepreneurial ventures are you looking to get involved with on here?
