Catharina Schorling, alias CATT, ist Singer-Songwriterin, Multi-Instrumentalistin und Produzentin. Kürzlich hat sie ihr eigenes Indie-Label „Wild Heart Music“ gegründet. Aufgewachsen in einem kleinen niedersächsischen Dorf im Wendland und umgeben von viel Natur und Musik, zieht es sie mit 19 Jahren nach Berlin. Sie studiert Musikproduktion, arbeitet zunächst für andere Künstler*innen als Live- und Studiomusikerin, bevor sie 2018 beginnt ihre eigenen Songs zu veröffentlichen. Für Writing-Sessions zieht sich CATT gerne mal zurück – in eine Hütte weit draußen in die Natur. Ihr einzigartiger Musikmix aus Pop, Jazz und einer guten Prise Experimentierfreude begeistern auch ein internationales Publikum und führen sie für Konzerte durch Europa. Mit ihrem Team hat sie ein alternatives solidarisches 3-Kategorien-Ticketsystem entwickelt.Wir sprechen mit CATT über ihre Vorliebe Independent unterwegs zu sein, ihre musikalische Frühprägung durch Kirchenmusik und Blechblas-Instrumente, Stipendien- und Förderprogramme für Künstler*innen, alternatives Ticketing und warum sich Streaming revolutionieren muss.Es geht um ein nach Innen hören, den Mut „Nein“ zu sagen, bahnbrechende Erfahrungen, sich Raum geben und an Grenzen kommen.Wenn CATT nicht gerade mit alternativen Instrumenten wie einem Besen herumexperimentiert, freut sie sich über ihren erdenden Umzug nach Weimar.Bühne frei für CATT: She´s HERE TO GET HEARD!Dies ist eine Produktion von SENTAHOOD in Zusammenarbeit mit THOMANN supported by SHURE.LINKS:CATT:https://www.instagram.com/catt/THOMANN:https://www.thomann.de/de/index.htmlhttps://www.tiktok.com/@thomann.musichttps://www.instagram.com/thomann.musichttps://www.youtube.com/@ThomannMusicBLOG:https://www.thomann.de/blog/de/here-to-get-heard-de/ (DEUTSCH)https://www.thomann.de/blog/en/here-to-get-heard-en/ (ENGLISCH)SHURE:https://www.thomann.de/de/social_shure-gear-fuer-podcaster-und-creator.htmlSENTA-SOFIA DELLIPONTI:https://sentamusic.de/SENTAHOOD:https://www.sentahood.de/ Hosted on Acast.

This week Ari sits down with Tony Kiewel, the President of Sub Pop Records and co-founder of ORCA (Organization for Recorded Culture and Arts). Sub Pop has repped iconic artists like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Beach House, The Postal Service, Flight of the Conchords, Iron & Wine, Father John Misty, and many more. Tony's organization, ORCA, is a “think tank comprised of international independent music labels committed to increasing music's economic, social, and cultural value.” ORCA has done incredible research to demonstrate the tangible value of music in our society. ORCA also works with numerous record labels to increase financial and contractual transparency between labels and artists. In this episode, Tony shares the inner-workings of his experience at Sub Pop. He breaks down how independent record labels function in 2024 and how exactly his label invests in the future of their artists. Ari and Tony discuss how ORCA's research could help influence law and policy changes for the music industry and how the organization helps people outside of the industry understand how things work. Tony talks about what Sub Pop looks for when it comes to signing new artists, how they develop current artists on their roster, and how they go about working with undiscovered artists vs. artist on the cusp of stardom.

Warum Spotify feiern? Ein täglicher Newsletter als Business Case. Wer war Theo Schumann? Neue Print-Musikmagazine. Die neue Staffel startet mit einem Wiedersehen mit Stammgast Fabian Schütze. Der Macher vom Branchen-Newsletter Low Budget High Spirit berichtet u.a. über seine neusten Projekte. Er gibt Einblicke, wie er seinen Daily Newsletter „Ein Song reicht“ konzipierte und innerhalb kürzester Zeit über 5.000 Abos erzielte. Er erklärt, wie er diesen monetarisiert, weiter wachsen wird und warum Gastgeber Alexander Schröder wieder subscriben sollte. Dem war der tägliche Rhythmus nämlich zu viel. Es gibt ein Update zum Low Budget High Spirit Magazin und Golden Rules. Sein Soul-Label hat mit Theo Schumann einen frühen Erneuerer der Soul-, Funk- und Popmusik in der DDR wiederentdeckt. Schütze berichtet, welche Schritte notwendig waren, um dessen vermeintlich verschollenen Werke neu zu veröffentlichen. Dazu gibt es das persönliche c/o pop 2024 Fazit – insbesondere über die Zukunft der Indie-Labels, eine Diskussion über den Sinn neuer Print-Musikmagazine wie Diffus, Morecore, Crazewire und die Frage, welche Relevanz der Record Store Day noch besitzt - und für wen dieser nützlich ist. Schütze und Schröder werfen einen Blick auf die Business-Pläne von Spotify und wundern sich über die Beliebtheit der Branchenevents des Streamingdienstes. www.lowbudgethighspirit.com www.goldenrules.de www.einsongreicht.de www.redfield-podcast.de

In this episode of JM International's ‘The Power of Music', we speak with Alex Brannson (Beatport) about how to make it in the music industry, by carrying equipment for other people, saying yes to something without knowing what it means, and by just taking a chance.

For many years, smaller independent labels have found it challenging to provide health insurance options to their employees that were not cost prohibitive. This month we talked with A2IM's President and CEO, Dr. Richard Burgess about the A2IM Benefits Store, launched in September of 2022 to deliver member labels access to affordable health insurance packages, as well as other vital resources they may need.

So, this is it, Mike Raine's last episode as host of the Canadian Musician Podcast. Mike kicks off the show by introducing you to Manus Hopkins, one of the editors at Canadian Musician who you'll be hearing on the podcast from now on. And then, Mike shares his last interview for the Canadian Musician Podcast, and it's a prime example of the type of conversation he's loved having here. It is with Menno Versteeg, founder of Royal Mountain Records and former frontman of the band Hollerado. Menno – in his typical funny, honest, and self-deprecating way – tells the story of Royal Mountain's creation and how it almost accidently grew into Canada's best indie label, with an all-star roster that includes Alvvays, Mac Demarco, Orville Peck, PUP, and so many more outstanding artists.

Bruno shares his saga from playing the drums and enjoying international music, mixing songs and culture from Tunisia, France, and LA. Those facets led to studying at UCLA Ethnomusicology, becoming a DJ at KCRW, and building a record label in his living room. He shared work in place-based music and compilation records, in building the sonic architecture of hotels, vacations, and clothing brands -- creating soundtracks to vacations and lifestyles. His own independent label became his inspiration to work to streamlining the complexity of running a music label. His work in Filemaker Pro and Salesforce for his own company became the early stages of the 2015 go-to-market for Revelator. He became a “product guy,” helping labels in many regions with streaming music processing and accelerating catalog valuation and fractionalization processes. We closed with discussions from Web3 -- moving from an information-based to a value-based Internet -- and new types of marketplaces and tokenized economies that will go beyond what artists can do today. Guest: Bruno Guez, Founder and CEO, Revelator Founder of Revelator, and a former Director on the Board of Merlin Network, the leading music rights agency, Bruno Guez brings over twenty-five years of experience as a seasoned digital music executive working with Chris Blackwell' Island Records and Guy Laliberte's Cirque du Soleil. With a strong vision to retool the creative industry, Bruno saw the opportunity to provide a game-changing technology platform for global rights administration and royalty management using blockchain technology, with a goal of enabling efficient and fully transparent reporting, real-time payments and innovative revenue streams for rights owners, creators, artists, producers, and publishers around the world.

You can learn more about the folks at 3tone Music by going to http://otherrecordlabels.com/distro You can email my buddy Rupert at 3tone, rupert@3tonemusic.co.uk   Indie Labels Need Advocates.  In the same way that our artists need our support and cheerleading, labels need someone supporting us, and fighting for our position. I've been on the hunt for a digital distributor that is empathetic to the needs of small, independent record labels. Someone who is aware of our unique needs, and who can give us something different than what an indie artist can get for themselves with DistroKid, Amuse, or CD Baby.  This has been really important to me, to find someone who knows we exist and respects our existence, regardless of how small our catalogs or operations are. Some distributors are out of reach for smaller indies, and some don't offer services advanced enough.  So, for the past 2 years,  I've been nurturing this relationship with a distributor called 3tone Music. You've probably not heard of them, aside from some of our conversations in our Facebook Group. But I've been personally testing them out with my releases for a few years.   You can learn more about the folks at 3tone Music by going to http://otherrecordlabels.com/distro

Welcome back to 10,000 Heroes. Our mission is social transformation through personal change.   More precisely, I define a hero as somebody who is acting in alignment with their purpose, and thus living their life as a contribution to the All. That's a tall order and we're all at different stages in that journey, but wherever you are, if I can help, inspire, or facilitate you taking another step towards our collective effervescence, I will consider today a good day.   To quote Ice Cube.   My guest today is Joe Bridge, who has recently released an absolutely incredible Space Opera called “We Are Rising”. It's actually very deep philosophy disguised as a Funky Space Opera. If you even like one of those words, I would highly encourage you to listen to the album, repeatedly, and pay attention to the deep wisdom in the lyrics.   I hope you're as moved by Joe's extra-stellar wisdom as I am. And As always, we love hearing from you!   Show Links: Voicemail:  https://www.speakpipe.com/10khshow Email: info@10kh.show Twitter: @10khshow   Guest References: Listen to “We are Rising” on Spotify -> https://open.spotify.com/album/5OkSOepdaYsGvYQHzSmZ45?si=aD9GMllIT0-2EoS5znWpqA   Joe's Record Label, “Hey Gang” -> https://heygangrecords.com/  

Sie tourten mit Harry Styles und landeten in einem Remix von Tiësto, doch ihr grösster Schritt war weg vom grossen Geschäft: Mit dem 3. Album wechselt das Trio aus LA zu Phoebe Bridgers' Indie-Label und schrieb mit Mitski. Im Kern bleiben sie düster und queer, tönen aber happier und lauter denn je. «Wir haben persönlich alle drei sehr düstere Momente, wir sind sensibel und verzweifeln immer wieder daran, was aktuell auf der Welt passiert. Aus dieser Verzweiflung heraus müssen wir etwas kreieren, das fröhlich und auf Zuneigung gebaut ist. Wir müssen schöne Momente kultivieren,» erklären Naomie, Katie und Josette im Sounds! Interview - nicht ohne dass Katie lachend ergänzt: «Auch wenn das ein bisschen so tönt: *kotzgeräusch* Wuäh!» Und genau diese Selbstreflexion macht «MUNA» zum spannendsten Pop-Album der Stunde: ein hyper-fröhlicher, tanzbarer Monsterwurf, der die Welten von Charts und Indie-Party perfekt vereint. Für Fans von Robyn, Christine and the Queens und Taylor Swift. Wie immer verlosen wir das Sounds! Album der Woche täglich auf CD - nur live im Radio!

Many music artists partner with prominent labels because of their wide audience reach and significant impact. But if you want to escape the messy world of the music industry and get your creative self out there, an indie label may be the best fit for you. Bree Noble is joined by Heather Christie of Moonbabe Records, emphasizing why passion always trumps fame. Heather shares how her label builds female-centric communities of fully confident artists with every work they release to the world.

We begin this week with a tribute to Taylor Hawkins, the talented and charismatic drummer for the Foo Fighters, who died unexpectedly last week at the age of 50. It was completely unexpected and tragic and the music community at large seems still to be grappling with the news. Greg takes the reigns…Songs:Foo Fighters - “My Hero”Alanis Morisette - “You Outta Know”Foo Fighters - “Rope”Taylor Hawkins Drum SoloFoo Fighters (with Taylor on vocals) - “Somebody to Love”Nick read a story about the success that the independent label Wrong Speed Records has found in the 2 years since its founding. It got him thinking about the role of small independent labels in today's music industry. What is the point of a small label? That's what we aim to find out and the conservation is pretty interesting!Song: Black Midi - 21st Century Schizoid ManJay doesn't like jam bands. This statement, possibly an over-generalization, was something Jay felt he'd settled on…until he discovered Goose (he's definitely a fan). So what's with this ‘jam band' genre anyway? Jay digs into the good, the bad and the Dead…Song: Goose - “So Ready”For those of you wishing to learn more about A.R.S.E.S. Foundation, please feel free to leave a comment on our website and Jay will get in touch!

Episode #180 : Matt Black and Jonathan Fine first joined forces in the late 1980's, after a chance encounter at a local record shop. Now, some thirty-odd years later, the two are still working together in multiple capacities, and show no signs of stopping. They've released multiple albums as the electronic duo Coldcut, and helped produce several others, in addition to founding the highly regarded UK electronic label Ninja Tune, which is now in its thirtieth year of existence. In the recent past, they've also turned their attention to making musical software, like the Ninja Jamm app, that allows both novice and pros alike to remix and create music on the go with their smart device. Join us this week as we speak with both Matt and Jon about their history as a band and their philosophy as label owners and app developers.

On this episode, Syd joins us to talk about the label's triumphs and tribulations over the course of the last two decades, as does Craig Finn, who's bands The Hold Steady and Lifter Puller have enjoyed success under the Frenchkiss umbrella.
