Brian Duffy at TEDx Aldeburgh | FYPA.NET

A few months back Brian Duffy, Birmingham’s greatest artist (and no mistake), gave a talk at TEDx Aldeburgh followed by a brief performance by his Modified Toy Orchestra. The full video is now online. The version of Black Star they finish with is quite something.

TV, When It Rocked and Rolled | MetaFilter

In August 1990, when Spin magazine was still an edgier cousin to Rolling Stone, it published a list of the 35 Greatest Moments in Rock 'n' Roll Television.

Now, thanks to the magic of the Internet, many of these moments are only a point and click away.

Low Overhead + High Margin: An Interview with Jonathan Coulton | Music Business and Trend-Mongering

It’s likely that you’ve heard of Jonathan Coulton. Profiled by NPR and the New York Times, Coulton has been a full time independent musician since he quit his computer programming gig in 2005. After initiating an ambitious project of releasing a new song a week, Coulton started to gain momentum, making what he described as “a reasonable middle-class living” — between $3,000 and $5,000 a month — by selling CDs and digital downloads of his work on his own site and iTunes.

Monome – first steps « tusem

I have had a Tenori-on for well over a year now, and have been intrigued about the differences between it and a monome ever since. Having put myself down on the monome waiting list, and 6/7 months later getting notified that I could get one if I said yes immediately, I recently made the plunge.

Jonathan Coulton » Blog Archive » Payday

People often ask me for stats about how much free downloading there is vs. actual sales. I’m sure they are very frustrated when I explain to them, in excruciating detail, how impossible it is to know such a thing. [...] Now I sort of think of the whole engine as a special genetically engineered cow who eats music and poops money - I have no idea what’s going on in its gut, and I have the luxury of not really caring that much about the particulars.

The Sorry State Of Music Startups

Online streaming music startups are in one very sorry place. On demand streaming rates range from .4 cents to 1 cent per stream - this is what the startups pay to the labels every time they play a song for a user. Add bandwidth and storage costs on top of that, which aren’t trivial for services that want to stream music quickly on demand. The result is hundreds of millions of dollars flowing from venture funds to startups to labels. Little of it makes its way to artists, and advertising revenues only cover a tiny portion of the fees.

Metallica "Death Magnetic" - Stop The Loudness Wars - Mastering Media Blog

This post is partly my attempt to publicise the damage that the so-called "Loudness Wars" are doing to music. In a nutshell, the continuing arms-race for "loudness at all cost" is now dramatically damaging the music we listen to - even in a traditionally loud, distorted genre like rock. As a result we are given squashed, lifeless and often unpleasantly distorted products to listen to. These are less exciting, less involving, less impactful and ultimately fatiguing to listen to.

Asking any songwriter to name their "favorite moments" is an unfair enterprise, but John was game to identify five songs he felt particularly proud of. His explanations are as rousing - and raise as much gooseflesh - as the songs themselves.

Talking To The Music Industry Again, The Aspen Live Conference at FISTFULAYEN

Which is where I came in. I have a pretty optimistic view of the future of media. I (like David Byrne) think what’s happening in media today makes sense, is good for people who make music and people who love music (if not for people who built oligopolies on selling music on plastic discs for $18) and is good for culture in general. I wanted to give a presentation which explained where this optimism came from, the forces behind it, where I saw the opportunity is/isn’t, and encouraged the music industry to do the right thing with respect to building platforms for monetization and leveraging standards. It was pretty lofty goal in its own right, but worth a shot.
