In our final bold prediction before Trapital Summit, Guillaume de Chalendar, Executive Vice President and Head of Media and Entertainment Banking at Banc of California, joins us to discuss the growing wave of capital entering the music industry. Guillaume explains why artists and rights holders may borrow against their catalogs instead of selling them, along with the risks of overleveraging valuable music assets. We break down lender rights, foreclosure risk, capital stacks, rising loan-to-value ratios, and why choosing the right lender and advisors matters more than ever.

Every distribution company's international playbook assumes resources an independent artist doesn't have. In this conversation, Janette Berrios, SVP of Corporate Marketing at Symphonic, scales things down to a solo artist with no team and no budget. She breaks down a repeatable way to enter a scene where you know nobody, research who matters, reach out so you actually get a reply, and how to follow up without being a pest. She also describes a cold outreach she made years ago to someone at a peer company bigger than Symphonic at the time, and where that relationship stands today.   Our discussion also covers the following.   Researching a new market before you commit to it Finding local collaborators and producers on social Cold outreach that works: subject lines, tone, and follow-up timing Warming up a contact on social before you ask for anything Symphonic's Women Empowered+ mentoring program How she found mentors by reaching out cold First moves for audience-building in new and unfamiliar markets The virtual side of conferences most people overlook   Janette Berrios spent 15 years building Symphonic's expansion across the U.K., Europe, APAC, and Latin America. She also shares how Symphonic's niche and regional focus drove its growth, why she treats every Latin American country differently, and what sank the competitors who tried to buy their way into new markets.

Independent artists pay music distributors to get their songs onto Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and other major platforms—but what happens when something goes wrong and getting meaningful support becomes difficult?In “Paid to Distribute, Left Without Support: My TuneCore Experience as an Independent Artist,” Dellie takes a fact-based look at TuneCore customer support, refund policies, Content Review, automated help systems, response times and the challenges independent musicians can face when a release is delayed, rejected or disputed.The episode also examines TuneCore's current rules around AI-generated and AI-assisted music, the company's 14-day refund-request policy, the difference between canceling and receiving a refund, and why artists should document every release, payment, support ticket, UPC and ISRC.This episode is not about rumors or piling onto a company.

REPRIS FRÅN 2021De fem vännerna har tillbringat påskledigheten vid floden Zambezi i södra Afrika. Det har varit några helt fantastiska dagar och nu innan de ska åka hem så ska de avsluta semestern med en fisketur på floden. Två av dem är vana safariguider och känner till naturen och djuren här väl men det ska visa sig att det inte spelar någon roll hur välbekant man är med floden. För när man har med vilda djur att göra så vet man aldrig vad som kan hända.

This week on The Popcast, Tim Andrews talks with Kevin Spencer, lead singer and guitarist for Electric Avenue, about the Atlanta-based band's love of '80s music and their biggest hometown show yet: The '80s Symphonic Experience with the Atlanta Pops Orchestra at Atlanta Symphony Hall on Saturday, August 15. Kevin talks about taking the music of the '80s beyond the traditional tribute-show format and what happens when Electric Avenue's meticulous recreations of classic New Wave and pop songs meet the power of a full orchestra.

This week, Mark and I were unable to get together so we both recorded separately, like we used to do years ago. Here we have 'retro' or 'classic' YMP I suppose. Anyway, we both enjoyed listening to/watching 2 different versions of And You And I - one from the brilliant Symphonic Live DVD and the other from the BBC Prog Prom event last week. I have embedded both versions into the show notes for this week so do watch those and see what you think of our reactions. Which version is 'better'? Is it fair to compare them?

2020 pratade vi för första gången om sekten FLDS. En grupp som ser ut att leva på 1800-talet och som lever nästan helt isolerade från resten av samhället. Men det var inte deras sätt att leva på som vi pratade om då, utan vi pratade om deras fruktansvärda sektledare. En man som våldtog barn.Men trots att sektledaren Warren Jeffs dömdes till fängelse för sina brott så fortsatte sekten existera.

Aristotle in his POETICS made a simple yet incisive claim-good dramatic work has a 3 act structure-a beginning, a middle, and an end. Horace in classic Rome expanded this to a 5 act structure.  In the age of cinema, a slightly modified three act structure has been the dominant approach in American screenwriting. Yet many, if not most movies, actually deviate from this structure. And filmmakers like Kurosawa and Kubrick embrace other structures like the symphonic structure-4 movements. Yet, ultimately, many variations can still be harmonized to a progression of 3 distinct parts. Secret Movie Club programmer.founder Craig Hammill looks at Pulp Fiction, Memento, The Thin Red Line, 2001, Mad Max and many others to discuss all the different kinds of successful and discovered structures. And what that might say about an even more profound structure in successful cinematic work.

AI keeps getting called music's biggest threat. Or its biggest opportunity. Both framings miss the point. The real question is harder: if AI can handle the cognitive work, what's left that actually matters? We're joined by Jessica Powell, CEO and co-founder of AudioShake, to figure that out. We talked about why experienced practitioners get the most out of AI, what happens to the creators caught in the middle, and whether "AI-generated" is already a useless label. We also break down how AudioShake works — not generative AI, but subtractive stem separation and why physical media and community could be music's quiet hedge against digital abundance.

Can transcendence still make philosophical sense after modernity? John Vervaeke speaks with philosopher William Desmond about Platonism as a living tradition, the meaning of strong transcendence, and Desmond's philosophy of the metaxu: the between. The conversation builds from John's proposal that relevance realization and transjectivity are philosophically grounded in Desmond's ontological account of the between. John begins by distinguishing modern psychological accounts of transcendence from the ancient and Platonic sense of strong transcendence. In this stronger sense, transcendence is not merely a better state of mind. It discloses truths that are otherwise unavailable and changes the knower's relation to reality. That claim challenges modern assumptions about flat ontology, the buffered self, representational cognition, and the fact-value split. Desmond responds through Plato. He presents Plato not as a dry theorist of two worlds, but as a philosophical artist of the between: a thinker of mimesis, eros, mania, dialogue, singularity, and participatory transformation. Plato's dialogues are not ornamental containers for arguments; their drama, characters, and dialogical movement are part of the philosophy itself. The later conversation opens into deep memory, imagination, eternity, possibility, God, Daoism, intercultural philosophy, pilgrimage, and the life-world. Desmond and Vervaeke converge on the need to move beyond the view from nowhere and return philosophy to transformative practice, embodied dwelling, and a richer contact with the sources of intelligibility. Key Insights Strong transcendence has epistemological and ontological significance, not only psychological benefit. The metaxu, or between, names a porous relation before, beneath, between, and beyond modern dichotomies. Modernity's fact-value split risks producing default atheism or default nihilism. Participatory knowing offers an alternative to treating cognition as internal representation of an external world. Plato's dialogical form is integral to his philosophy; the drama cannot simply be stripped away to extract arguments. Mimesis involves relation between image and original without collapsing their difference. Eros and mania point to two directions of transcendence: from below upward and from above downward. Deep memory is a source of imagination and ontological depth, not merely storage of past facts.

K-Pop is in a unique situation. The genre “feels” like it's everywhere. BTS, Blackpink, Stray Kids, and KPop **Demon Hunters have topped Billboard and Netflix charts. But recent data shows that roughly 2% of global streams are from K-Pop, and the genre is and trending down. We are joined by Will Page, former Chief Economist at Spotify and author of Pivot. He released a new report on Music Business Worldwide in collaboration with Jeongbeom ‘JB' Kim, Chief Data Officer at the Korean-based KreatorsNetwork. We discussed how K-Pop's demand is centralized at the top, why even a phenomenon like KPop Demon Hunters didn't lift the rest of the genre, and what Western labels keep getting wrong when they try to copy the model.

"Blue dot fever" is the new phrase floating around for artists whose tours have seat maps full of unsold blue dots for concerts, especially in arenas and stadiums. It's said to be a precursor to a cancelled tours. The term is catchy, it captures headlines, but is the “problem” a bit exaggerated? To break it down, I'm with CAA music touring agent Akin Aliu. We last sat down for Arena Tours: The Art and Science Behind Sold Out Shows.

Fall 1:Djupt inne i skogarna i Tjeckien ligger ett slott. Ett slott som inte liknar något annat. För till skillnad från andra borgar ser det inte ut att vara byggt för att försvara sig mot yttre hot. Istället verkar de kraftigaste murarna vara riktade inåt. Som om hela slottet inte byggdes för att hålla fiender ute, utan istället för att hålla någonting inne.Fall 2:Ett vitt, till synes oskyldigt hus, omringat av gröna böljande kullar och täta skogar. Vid första anblick ser det helt vanligt ut, nästan idylliskt. Men under ytan döljer sig något betydligt mörkare. För det verkar inte bara vara huset, eller marken det står på, som är hemsökt, utan hela staden det ligger i. Och det där vita, oskyldiga huset anses av många vara det mest hemsökta av dem alla.Det har blivit dags att rysa ordentligt, för vi ska prata hemsökta platser. Fall: Houska slott & Hinsdale House.
