Well, this is a doozy!We start by discussing the recent closure of Drifters Wharf in Gosford. Drifters had become the go-to premiere venue on the Central Coast, but that title is now uncertain. The venue saying a disagreement with their landlord has forced a closure for at least the next 30 days. The landlord appears to be chasing unpaid rent.Then, we turn our attention to discuss all the acronyms in the world. The ACCC, APRA AMCOS, and PPCA. There's more, but we'll leave it there for now. There's a lot to unpack with this one and we've barely scraped the surface...Thanks for listening!

Stu Watts chats with Sophie Edwards. The past few years for Sophie have been a whirlwind of music and creativity. After being the first Australian to study a Masters of Songwriting and Production at the Berklee College of Music in New York City, Sophie returned back to Australia to begin an unstoppable trajectory in her home country. Her first release post-homecoming “4kInMyBrain” received airplay on Triple J and across the independent radio network, and her follow up single “4 Walls and A Telephone” secured her a performance at Spilt Milk as the Triple J Unearthed winner. She has also performed at BIGSOUND, Stonefest, and Groovin The Moo.Sophie represented Australia as a songwriter and producer at the Martin Garrix Academy, travelling to Amsterdam thanks to sponsorship by JBL Audio. She was chosen to be a producer at APRA AMCOS SongHubs Looped, and in 2025, was invited to perform at Spilt Milk as a local artist. Sophie loves working with emerging Australian artists, and bringing her sonic signature and fun energy to writing rooms across the globe. She is a nominee for “Breakthrough Producer of the Year” at the MPEG Awards for 2026. As a producer and a co-writer, Sophie has worked with artists such as Kimbra, Jerry Barnes (bassist for Nile Rodgers), Jared Benjamin, Lara Buchanan, and Jade Alice, and regularly collaborates on projects for brands such as JBL, APRA AMCOS, ANU, Casio, and Ableton.Sophie is currently hard at work on her debut self-produced album “Bouquet”, with releases slated throughout 2026.

AI is coming for the Australian music industry. Whether that's a catastrophe or a creative revolution (or both) is yet to be seen. But this week music licensing lobby group APRA AMCOS released a report surveying thousands of musicians across Australia and New Zealand. Economic modelling in the report found AI is likely to wipe more than half a billion dollars off the revenues of music creators by 2028 - but it also found more than half of the musicians and producers surveyed said AI technology can help with the human creative process.  On this episode of The Briefing Australian singer songwriters Josh Pyke and Sophie Payten AKA Gordi join Bension Siebert to unpack on the promise, and threat, of AI for Australian music.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
