Crushing It On Gig Day / SoundExchange AI Registry / Timbaland's Soulless New AI Artist / UMG's Influencer App / Beatport Ticketing

Finally it's gig day! After all the rehearsals and promotion, it's time to jump on stage and show the crowd what you've got. How do you make the best of this day, make sure it goes smoothly, and get the most of your opportunity? We'll share some hard-earned experiences and lessons. Next, we look at SoundExchange's new global AI registry, what it does (and doesn't) do. Then, our first villain Timbaland (see ep. 3 for more) returns with a new AI artist called Tata Taktumi, and we react to "her" music video. Next we discuss UMG's new influencer app and initiative called "House of Carmen" before turning our attention to Beatport's new ticketing initiative and what it could mean for the future of ticketing in the music industry. In this episode, observe Cameron desperately try and hold it together as Augustus uses his most egregiously thick Minnesota accent to throw him (and everyone) off their game.LinksSoundExchange Developing Global AI Sound Recording Registry https://www.soundexchange.com/news/soundexchange-developing-global-ai-sound-recording-registry/Beatport Launches Ticketing Platform Exclusively for Dance Music Events by Mandy Dalugdug for Music Business Worldwide https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/beatport-launches-ticketing-platform-exclusively-for-dance-music-events/Timbaland Debuts AI ‘Artist’ TaTa Taktumi’s First Music Video and It’s as ‘Soulless’ as You Expected It To Be by By Stephen Andrew Galiher for Vice https://www.vice.com/en/article/timbaland-debuts-ai-artist-tata-taktumis-first-music-video-and-its-as-soulless-as-you-expected-it-to-be/Tata Taktumi - Glitch x Pulse (Official Music Video) https://youtu.be/JXFn32yhvh4?si=GOYc4vR5zq3R_py8Beatport Launches Ticketing Platform Exclusively for Dance Music Events by Mandy Dalugdug for Music Business Worldwide https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/beatport-launches-ticketing-platform-exclusively-for-dance-music-events/Build excitement for your tour with Set Lists via Apple Music https://artists.apple.com/support/5551-build-excitement-for-tour-set-listsSend us Fan MailSubscribe on YouTubeRecorded ourselves at Secret Spot DTLACameron Ljungkull Augustus Watkins Cocaine Opera - Music PR | Artist & Label Services
