Heart Dance Records - (Eddy Ruyter, Sherry Finzer, Julia Hanney)

This week’s interview is with Heart Dance Records, a women-owned and run instrumental label with a mission to create peaceful music to relax, reduce stress, focus, inspire, grieve, heal, meditate and calm. In this episode, we tackle the question of whether it’s okay or not for music fans to treat music as a utility.  For a lot music, it’s an emotional, intimate connection we have with the songs and the albums we love… and we link that directly back to the artist who wrote or sang the song. But in some cases, music simply augments our mood or the environment we’re in.  The music becomes similar to a cup of coffee, or a glass of wine, a house plant, or comfy chair.  Is there a problem with that? Is that disrespectful to the artist when we passively utilize music?  Or is that something that was intended by the artist?   VISIT OUR WEBSITE FOR RECORD LABEL RESOURCES: http://otherrecordlabels.com Heart Dance Records: http://heartdancerecords
