On today's episode, I talk to musician John Davis. Growing up in Cambridge, MA, John formed The Folk Implosion with Sebadoh and Dinosaur Jr.'s Lou Barlow in the early 1990s. Their first album 1994's Take a Look Inside was a brilliant lo-fi pop record, and then a year later, a song of theirs on the Kids soundtrack blew up, and in the diverse atmosphere that had been created in Nirvana's wake, the band was noticed by a number of larger labels. Their third album would be released by Interscope, after which John left the band. As a solo artist, John has released many albums under different names on labels like Shrimper, and just last year, Lou and he got back together to make a new Folk Implosion album. Walk Thru Me was released on Joyful Noise last June, and it is quite wonderful! This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, follow me on Twitter.

Best known for his song "Electric Love" (with nearly 2 BILLION streams on Spotify!), BØRNS took some time off and has now reinvented his sound with a fantastic new EP. PART ONE: Paul and Scott talk about Omnivore Recordings, a new Buck Owens LP, who they wouldn't want to invite over to Songcraft world headquarters, and other random stuff. PART TWO: Our in-depth conversation with BØRNSABOUT BØRNS:Michigan native and Los Angeles based singer-songwriter BØRNS is best known for the platinum-selling single “Electric Love” from his 2015 album Dopamine on Interscope Records. The follow-up album, Blue Madonna, included the singles “Sweet Dreams” and “God Save Our Blood,” featuring Lana Del Rey. After a departure from Interscope and a recording hiatus, he returned with the Suddenly EP in 2023, which marked a sonic shift to a more organic aesthetic. That same year, he and girlfriend Courtney Farren released the Together Together EP. BØRNS' most recent EP is the retro-infused Honeybee, which was released in early 2025.

Eric Valentine's journey into music started with a $50 drum set from a garage sale and drum lessons at age nine. By 12, he was experimenting with home recordings, and by high school, he had a 4-track recorder and was recording local musicians. At 17, he and a friend launched a 16-track studio in a garage, advertising $10 per hour for recording sessions—marking the start of his professional career.His big break came when his band, T-Ride, signed with Hollywood Records under the condition that he produce and engineer their album. Instead of renting an expensive studio, he upgraded their own space, investing in high-end gear. Though the band didn't achieve major success, it led Eric to focus on producing local artists. Over the next few years, he worked with rapper Paris, recorded Joe Satriani, and ultimately helped launch the careers of Smash Mouth and Third Eye Blind. He co-produced Third Eye Blind's debut album and took a DIY approach with Smash Mouth, finishing their album before they even had a deal—leading to their signing with Interscope just days after mastering.With multiple hit records under his belt, Eric relocated from the Bay Area to Los Angeles, closing his legendary “H.O.S.” Studios to establish Barefoot Recording. There, he produced major albums for Queens of the Stone Age, Good Charlotte, Taking Back Sunday, Maroon 5, Slash, and Gwen Stefani, accumulating nearly 65 million album sales worldwide. In 2010, he expanded into recording equipment design, launching Undertone Audio to create high-end studio gear, including a Class A console with a revolutionary EQ.Most recently, Eric moved his studio setup to Vermont, where he spent four years building a state-of-the-art 10,000-square-foot recording facility. Now settled in, he's focusing on his latest passion: The Audionaut Institute, an educational platform where audio enthusiasts can explore the art of recording and production.IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN:Learning on your own vs. having a mentorWorking with Queens Of The Stone Age, Good Charlotte, and Third Eye BlindEstablishing the vision of a projectHow he gets big, natural-sounding drumsUsing minimal micing techniquesHow to tune drums to the key of a songThe beauty of imperfectionArranging your tracks so they practically EQ themselvesMaking extreme mix movesCreating movement, energy, and width in a mixTips for getting the low-end rightHis delay trick for controlling low-end headroomTo learn more about Eric visit: https://www.audionautinstitute.com/mrwevLooking for 1-on-1 feedback and training to help you create pro-quality mixes?Check out my coaching program Amplitude and apply to join:https://masteryourmix.com/amplitude/ Want additional help with your music productions?For tips on how to improve your mixes, visit: https://masteryourmix.com/ Download your FREE copy of the Ultimate Mixing Blueprint: https://masteryourmix.com/blueprint/ Get your copy of my Amazon #1 bestselling books:The Recording Mindset: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Pro Recordings From Your Home Studio: https://therecordingmindset.com The Mixing Mindset: The Step-By-Step Formula For Creating Professional Rock Mixes From Your Home Studio:

MUSIC Three men are accusing Sean "Diddy" Combs of drugging and raping them between 2019 and 2022. The men, all three anonymous John Does, filed a civil suit in New York on Wednesday. Rage Against The Machine bassist Tom Commerford has opened up about his three-year battle with prostate cancer. It seems that Nine Inch Nails fans might have some reissues to look forward to. Trent Reznor was asked by Indie Wire if there's a chance he'll reissue older Nine Inch Nails video projects and he replied, "I'm trying to think what I'm able to say right now. We are doing some things with Interscope again. There's a renewed interest in making sure the back catalog is being curated and maintained properly." Reznor was asked if one of those things in the catalog is a reissue of the 1997 video album Closure, which was released as a double VHS tape but had a DVD reissue shelved in the early 2000s. Reznor said, "I haven't been paying close attention to what the status of those things are because this is a relatively new development. But that's a good thing to mention because I would like to have that in some consumable fashion, whether it be streamable or something.” Fred Durst says people have misunderstood the lyrics for Limp Bizkit's "Nookie" for 25 years TV Hot Ones host Sean Evans is now a key stakeholder in First We Feast, the studio that produces his popular celebrity interview series. MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS: It looks like casting may be locked in for the four-part biopic series on The Beatles, with each band member getting their own film. 'Elvis' and 'Dune 2' star Austin Butler has been cast as Patrick Bateman for the 'American Psycho' remake. AND FINALLY O.J. Simpson accumulated quite a collection of PORNO MAGS in prison . . . and he KEPT them when he got out. Now they're hitting the auction block, and his MAGNUM condoms might follow.

pWotD Episode 2781: Benny Blanco Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 358,439 views on Thursday, 12 December 2024 our article of the day is Benny Blanco.Benjamin Joseph Levin (born March 8, 1988), known professionally as Benny Blanco (stylized in all lowercase), is an American record producer, songwriter, record executive and author. He is the recipient of the 2013 Hal David Starlight Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He also won the BMI Songwriter of the Year Award five non-consecutive times, and won the 2017 iHeartRadio Producer of the Year Award.Blanco was initially mentored by songwriter and producer Dr. Luke, who signed Blanco to his production company Kasz Money Productions. Under his tutelage, Blanco co-produced and co-wrote a multitude of hit singles in the late 2000s and thereafter. Blanco's work has led to sales of over 500 million album-equivalent units worldwide for artists including Ed Sheeran, BTS, Eminem, Justin Bieber, Halsey, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, Christina Aguilera, Kesha, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Sia, The Weeknd, Kanye West, Avicii, Selena Gomez, Adam Lambert, Charlie Puth, Keith Urban, OneRepublic, Wiz Khalifa, J Balvin, Ariana Grande, Kali Uchis, Juice Wrld, and SZA.In July 2018, Blanco released his debut single as a lead artist, "Eastside" (with Halsey and Khalid). The song peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100—marking his 27th top-ten song as a writer, a sum which includes seven number one singles on the chart—while peaking the charts in four countries, and reaching the top ten in several others. It was followed by the singles "I Found You" (with Calvin Harris), "Better to Lie" (with Jesse and Swae Lee), "Roses" (with Brendon Urie and Juice Wrld), and "Graduation" (with Juice Wrld).

Calling all CORK BOARD CADRE in Klonny's hour of need. The Zion·ist music cartel has retaliated against PPM for our hard hitting, boom bap exposés of the Diddler - Epstein nexus, removing 8 eps from pod platforms. Please click this link to follow the Patreon and, if you can afford it, please subscribe, so that PPM can survive cont'd suppression & so you can access all of the Diddy Dossiers. I will be unlocking the entire Free Feed over there. Thank you for your support: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping In which SLANK & I unpack the "Tupac family" / estate's appointment of sus white collar criminal defense lawyer Alex Spiro to investigate Diddy's involvement in the Pac assassination & why this feels problematic, why it feels like there's a blatant conflict of interest, and why we're concerned about his hiring hinting at a concerted coverup... They (who exactly, is unclear, at least from publicly available info as best I can tell so far, be it the executor of Pac estate / music exec Tom Whalley or sundry relatives of Tupac unnamed in news pieces) have retained a lawyer who has repped a coterie of powerful individuals in the Diddler's orbit: Mayor Adams, Robert Kraft during his solicitation of prostitution at a happy ending spa scandal, Elon Musk, Jay-Z, etc. Even Mr. Beast, mass mind controller of kiddies everywhere, has just employed his services to preempt the brewing scandal in Beastland. The fact he's currently repping the "Bad Boy" Mayor & former NYPD Captain, ya know, a former employee of the same police dep't containing the COINTEL PRO legacy Rap Intel Unit implicated in numerous plots to target Tupac... The fact he's repping Mayor Adams, the same guy who gifted Puffy the Key to NYC shortly before Diddy's House of Cards began tumbling down, as he contends w/ these federal fraud & bribery charges is the height of irony. On top of it all, Spiro's a former C·I·A fellow, which doesn't bode well considering the way in which the feds are implicated in Pac's clipping. In this ep, we also discuss the rift between Pac's half-sister Sekyiwa Shakur & the present executor of the Tupac estate Tom Whalley, formerly a WB Music head and the man who signed a young Pac to Interscope in the late '80s. The relationship is... litigious, needless to say. Thus some of the curiosity around the appointment of Spiro, the opaqueness of the phrasing "Tupac's family" in news articles regarding it, and whether the estate is at all involved. From what I can tell at a far remove & as someone not particularly versed on the complex back-n-forth between those biz people with a "vested interest" in Pac's legacy who are attempting to profit from it and his living relatives like Sekyiwa in Shakur matriarch Afeni's absence (since 2016), it seems unlikely that Whalley & Sekyiwa would be collabing on this investigation by virtue of Sekyiwa's ongoing legal battle to gain control of the estate, but I could be way wrong there. Either way, we break down why Alex Spiro's sus career puts us on edge & why I'm instinctually concerned about ulterior motives on his part, even if Pac's family have enlisted him in a genuine bid to get to the bottom of who ordered Tupac killed & bring the Diddler's involvement to the light. We also put guns to head & place wagers on our Diddler prognoses: will he survive this ordeal? And much more. SLANK has joined me in the booth, once again, for what is the EIGHTH installment counting in this sweeping boom bap expose of the Diddler trafficking nexus and its Zion-ist and US intel interlocks.

Rockin' the Kremlin - Russian Music Industry w/ David Junk - AZ TRT S05 EP37 (253) 9-22-2024   Things We Learned This Week Roger Waters performed The Wall – Live in Berlin after the Fall David Junk went to the concert, & was inspired and moved to Russia, got into Diamond business, then Music Industry with Universal Music David had to establish a legal record market, and had to fight corruption with the Local Mob Record Companies and Artists wanted to grow their fan-base in both Eastern Europe & Russia post the Fall of the Soviet Union Western Music had a huge impact on Russian music, culturally & maturing the industry, which created local Rock Bands & Rap Artists     Guest: David Junk Music Business in Russia https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-junk   About David Junk is a seasoned music industry veteran with a career spanning thirty years. After the fall of the Soviet Union, David Junk embarked on an extraordinary adventure by becoming one of the first American record executives to work in the Ukrainian music industry. Early Days and Introduction to Ukraine: In 1999 as a record executive for Universal Music, the world's largest record company, David started an initiative to open the first branch of Universal in Ukraine. At the time, no other Western record label had ventured into Ukraine, allowing Russia to control the Ukrainian music market. David played a pivotal role in the early development of the Ukrainian music industry. This opened the door for more Western labels to engage in business in Ukraine. Championing the Ukrainian Music Industry: As Vice President of Universal Music, David had a significant responsibility in overseeing Eastern Europe, with a specific focus on Ukraine. He was instrumental in defending the rights of Ukrainian songwriters and combating music piracy controlled by criminal groups. Under his leadership, Universal Music soared to become Ukraine's most successful international label. This achievement was largely attributed to the Ukrainian youth's love for Hip Hop and rap music from Universal's premier labels, Interscope and Def Jam Records. The world-renowned Black Eyed Peas and rapper 50 Cent graced the Ukrainian music scene, thanks to David's efforts. In 2005, Universal Music extended its support to the Ukrainian Eurovision entry, Green Jolly, when Kyiv hosted the televised event for the very first time. Contributions to the Reggaeton Genre: In 2006, David took on the role of General Manager at Universal's Machete Records in Los Angeles, where he played a crucial part in transforming it into the #1 Reggaeton label in America. His work involved collaborating with renowned artists such as Don Omar and Wisin Y Yandel, further expanding his experiences in the music industry. Gibson Guitars: In 2013, David began a new career chapter, joining Nashville-based Gibson Guitars and managing a guitar showroom from the iconic Hit Factory recording studios in New York City. In this role, David presented honorary guitars to music legends Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, Nile Rodgers, Steve Miller, and the band Cheap Trick for their inductions into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He also provided guitar support for Blondie, Rush, The Roots, and Andrew Lloyd Webber's "School of Rock" Broadway Cast in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.     Seg 1   David Junk bio, fell into the music business by accident. Most people get into the music business through connections or ex musicians. David worked for universal music, and got into the music business when he was already working in Russia. He was living and working in Moscow and hired by universal music, then called PolyGram for a finance position for the record company.   Record label was big, carried the catalogs of Bob Marley deaf jam artist Bon Jovi and was the first musical label in Russia. David went on to become the first CEO of universal music in Russia.   David is from Ohio, and grew up during the Cold War with fear of Russia. His influenced by Roger Waters of Pink Floyd and his claim that he would not perform the album the wall unless the actual Berlin wall in Germany came down. In 1989 The Berlin wall did come down. Waters staged a concert performing the wall with celebrity ax joining in, called the Potsdam concert.   David went to Europe and attended that concert. He was influenced by the moment and returned to America to study business and the Russian language. He got an NBA in California.   In 1993 he got a job in Moscow working for a diamond mining company, mining raw diamonds. Russia has large supply of diamonds and Siberia. Unfortunately, the company David was working for turned out to be a huge scam with the Russian bosses stealing $200 million and diamonds. David was arrested and thrown in a Russian jail.   Thankfully, the actual criminals were caught and David was let go. The next job we got in Russia was for the music industry.     Seg 2   How the music business and record labels work. Record labels make money by marketing. Their big artist as well as music writes with song catalogues. Company David worked for carried many of the big rap artists like Jay Z and Eminem, as well as big bands, like U2 and the cranberries and also catalogs of Johnny Cash.   Labels are located in both the US and other countries. I band releases a new album and the record label locate in each country would promote and sell. Record labels want to sign artist to promote internationally to make more sales and exposure to the music.   The 1990s both Russia and Eastern Europe were considered one zone and many businesses were trying to expand.throughout. David visited many countries in Eastern Europe as well as former Russian Republic, like Ukraine.   At the time there was no infrastructure to sell records. There were no legal record stores and the Russian mafia controlled 90% of the music industry. There was mass piracy with music and CD. David's job working for universal music was to create a legal music industry.   Three step process to get the mafia out of the business Legislation - using the Russian Dumba work to create legislation to generate tax revenue off record sales. Country like Sweden was a model with massive revenue from the band ABBA. This failed and corruption issues continued. Police Action - Moscow police raids of piracy locations and confiscate CDs of universal music and other record labels. This partially worked, had some corruption issues. But ultimately it failed to as the pirate factories just moved from the city to military bases. Now they are under protection of the Russian military. U.S. Ambassador - went to the Bush administration to try to block Russia from the WTO world, trade organization. Russia wanted to expand its economy, enjoying the WTO. They leveraged this to push for legal action on music and other industries in Russia. Force the Russian government to protect artist and lessen the corruption.       Seg 3   In the late 1980s and 1990s artist were eager to get their music distributed in Russia. They obviously wanted to work with a record company. Do it legal have promotion that was supportive and understanding of their rights. They also understood that the royalties would be less.   There was big business though in touring. David's bosses in both Angeles and London cannot understand how powerful mafia was and how deep the corruption was.   When bands were touring in Russia mafia would interfere by selling false concert tickets. At the time in the late 1980s and early early 1990s lots of bands were touring in both Russia and Eastern Europe.   There were issues. An example of this was David Copperfield Magician tour. At one point, he did not pay the bribes and could not get his equipment out of Russia. He had to actually cancel parts of his European tour.   Band sell more records by touring in Russia. 1990s peace festival or Bon Jovi Metallica AC/DC all tour in Russia. Mariah Carey also toured in Russia. Kiss refused in the mid 1990s to Eastern Europe because of the war Yugoslavia.   MTV opened in Russia 1999 and this continue to expand music exposure of the west in Russia. Red Hot chili pop performed in the red square.   Western music had a huge cultural impact in Russia. David and universal signed the Russian band tattoo. This became the biggest selling Russian band in history.   Improved in Russia now that they've been introduced to competition from the west. Better music, better, music, videos, and better songwriting. Music is always had a connection to freedom with artist having the freedom of expression.   Hip-hop and rap was introduced to Russia and wound up becoming the most popular music in Russia today. Very much an anti-authority and freedom type music. Russia, creative popular hip-hop band called del. Many acts like Eminem, Snoop Dogg, 2Pac, 50 Cent, Jay Z, Dr. Dre, anime all became big hits in Russia.   David left Russia in 2005 and moved on to work for Gibson guitars which ultimately led to his return in 2013. Often on he lived and worked in Russia for 15 years.         If you enjoyed this show, you may like:  BRT Marketing: HERE BRT Business: HERE    Investing Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Investing-Stocks-Bonds-Retirement     ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT     Thanks for Listening.

"The fact that these artists are getting their flowers, getting a chance to perform on this stage, these black artists..If it wasn't for Jay-Z, this wouldn't be happening. So how can you come down and criticize this man like that? it's beyond me." Steve Stoute sounds off on the recent Super Bowl Halftime controversry. Steve Stoute is the ultimate American success story. He's worn a lot of hats—author, entrepreneur, ad exec, and most notoriously, a music mogul. For nearly three decades, he's played a pivotal role at some of the biggest music labels from Interscope, Geffen, and Sony, to working with massive names like U2 and Eminem. Ultimately he's helped shape not just hip-hop, but today's music culture as a whole and continues to find ways to bridge the gap with culture, sports, music and global reach. In this episode, in partnership with Fanatics, Stoute takes us on a wild ride through his experiences in music, advertising, and business and how valuing relationships fueled his journey to the top.  We had to start the conversation off and get right to it- With loud buzz around Kendrick Lamar being announced as this year's Super Bowl Half-time Act... controversy continues to swirl around the choice and blame being put towards Jay Z, who is on of Stoute's closest friends and business confidants. Jay, who's been a major part of choosing the NFL's biggest act of the year, is taking heat for selecting Kendrick over the hometown star and fan favorite Lil Wayne to headline New Orleans Super Bowl. Steve is blown away by the negativity towards Jay's choice, confused why people aren't celebrating that Jay has made such strides for culture to be apart of a big event vs making it personal as football and music fans alike are split, and even some big-name artists, like Nicki Minaj, have weighed in with their grievances. Stoute delves into this topic with Ryan, Fred, and Chan, sharing the inside scoop on how the decision really went down, what he thinks of the backlash, and who was originally asked to perform!  Ryan understands this Super Bowl controversy has caused a lot of backlash and ugliness from different areas of the industry but RC says this isn't nearly the black eye to culture that the continuous fall of P Diddy has stirred up, as more allegations are revealed and Diddy's recent arrest landed him in jail without bail. Knowing Diddy for a long time, the guys ask Stoute to honestly speak to it all, especially the fallout and if he ever saw any signs or this coming…. The conversation shifts to where things are heading with music, sports, culture and owning media rights as well as creation of platforms controlling the space vs the old days where networks and big companies dictated the industry. While Stoute started in an era where artists were burning their own records and signing deals with record labels to get noticed, he speaks to how the landscape has completely shifted. With social media, consumers can find an artist's music without them needing a label-- and he thinks this transition is beneficial. He's all about artists owning their craft and not "selling their souls" to big companies which is what led him to start UnitedMasters, to help creators keep control of their music, name, and likeness. Fred asks him about the recent Dame Dash situation with and how he sees it all playing out. Stoute's family roots and emphasis on relationships has always played a part in his work ethic and drive to make money. Steve breaks down the lessons he learned in the early days of his career and how he was able to navigate big moves, taking chances and never settling for anything less than his goals.  The guys soak up the knowledge from Steve as he breaks down the music industry's inner workings, connect music with sports, providing a front-row seat to the conversations shaping culture and give a better understanding of how key relationships have paved the way for so many to experience a new wave of success at any level.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Sad Boys For Real! Interscope signed recording artist, Big Kay Beezy, slides to PVTSTCK to discuss overcoming a murder charge, singing to Interscope, becoming a dad, and being the role model that he never had. In the song, "Set The Record Straight," Beezy raps, "Screaming what's up now / but deep inside I'm breaking down / and they not trynna see me smile." Beezy has endured more than most in this lifetime. From fighting for his life, losing close friends, and reaching the lowest point of his life at what should've been the highest. Often, people are forced to put on a smile when all they want to do is stop and breakdown. Through it all, Beezy has embodied the definition of resilience; not allowing anything to stop him from being the role model he didn't have growing up. Also discussed, impact of parents' divorce, why he continued to pursue street life, working with Polo G, and maintaining mental health even at his lowest.

Here is Chelsea Cankar. She started her career in music by having a music/fashion blog (Stic-of-the-Week). She really had learned the ropes of the industry through her creative mind, and this was pre-Instagram. She then ended up befriending some bookers and venues and covering shows, which then he finally told her she needed to start talking to PR people. Before she knew it she was having more own events/DJing and covering major music festivals like Lollapalooza and Coachella. Doing all this landed her a job at UMG and then Interscope and then forming her own business Cankar Creative. She will get to chat about her advice and the pros and cons of having her own business.

What is the state of the music industry in 2024? I know I can't answer that one, so I invited old friend Tom Schmall to talk about it. Tom's a Promotion, Marketing, and Artist Development Specialist for Red Light Management. In previous roles, he led promotion and marketing for record companies like Interscope and Maverick, and cut his teeth on independent promotion under Jeff McClusky.   Some of the things we talk about in this episode: *What mistake do independent musicians most often make? *When should an artist seek management?*What is radio's role in the present day? *Is there a blueprint for new artists to follow?*Why do some shitty bands break, while great ones don't? *Does “the album” matter in the music industry in 2024?   I feel like we only skimmed the surface in this episode, which means I need to plan for a follow up!   ## Car Con Carne is sponsored by Easy Automation: easy-automation.net Transform your living space with cutting-edge home automation.

They all had their own vibe, their own identity, their own brand.So... what the hell happened?In the episode, we talk about how music's landscape shifted, and took the consumer brands with it.

On this Music Business Worldwide Podcast, MBW founder, Tim Ingham, interviews Aaron Bay-Schuck, the CEO and co-Chairman of Warner Records in Los Angeles.Right now, Warner Records is on fire like no other time in its recent history. It's seeing blockbuster success from several artists who, according to Bay-Schuck, are all true artist propositions – in this industry for the long-term, rather than just a quick streaming or TikTok hit.These artists include the likes of Teddy Swims, Benson Boone, Dua Lipa, and – not least – country star Zach Bryan, whose No.1 US single, I Remember Everything (feat. Kacey Musgraves), continues to bounce around the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100... despite being released last summer. Alongside his fellow co-Chairman, Tom Corson, Aaron Bay-Schuck last year led Warner Records to become the fourth biggest frontline record company in the US. According to Billboard, Warner Records 'current' US market share jumped by 110 basis points in 2023, up to 5.96% from 4.86% in 2022.Bay-Schuck's industry story before Warner was an interesting journey – from being a junior at the A&R team of Atlantic Records, where he signed Bruno Mars, through to becoming President of A&R at Interscope, where he worked with the likes of Imagine Dragons, Lady Gaga, Gwen Stefani, and Selena Gomez.For Bay-Schuck, his more recent success with Zach Bryan and co. isn't evidence of Warner Records suddenly becoming a ‘hot' label. In his eyes, it's evidence of a patient, long-term, and consistent A&R strategy…Music Business Worldwide's Podcasts are supported by Voly Entertainment (previously known as Voly Music).
