MatchTune’s Post

We’re thrilled to announce that MatchTune is a co-sponsor of the Music Ally Connect Conference 2025, taking place in London on January 20-21. As part of this exciting event, we’re co-hosting a must-see panel with SACEM on January 20, titled: "AI and Licensing: What Kind of Deals Do We Want with Generative AI Companies?” This panel will explore how generative AI is transforming the music industry, with a focus on: 🔹 Crafting licensing agreements that balance innovation with protection for creators. 🔹 Tackling input and output monitoring for accurate attribution. 🔹 Examining the ripple effects AI licensing could have on rightsholder deals with artists and songwriters. Virginie Berger, MatchTune’s Chief Business Development and Rights Officer, will be sharing insights alongside esteemed panelists Chris Horton (Universal Music Group) and Julien Dumon (SACEM) as we discuss the opportunities, challenges, and ethical frameworks for AI’s role as a collaborator in music creation. A big thank you to Music Ally and Paul Brindley for hosting us and creating such a valuable event for industry leaders to come together. 📆 Mark your calendars!

What do digital transformations and jazz bands have in common? Way more than you think! 🧑💻 🎺 Technology has a huge transformative potential across industries – but it’s underdelivering, with only 3 in 10 digital and AI transformations able to capture full value at scale. That’s because a successful digital transformation requires “incredible musicianship across disciplines”, including engineering, strategy, talent, operating model, data, tech, scale, and adoption. Hear Senior Partner Dan Tinkoff explain his analogy between digital transformations and jazz bands, and learn why it’s never just about the tools themselves in our collection of case studies. 👉 https://lnkd.in/ezaubvtA #NeverJustTech #DigitalTransformation #ArtificialIntelligence #RewiredBook #AIbyMcKinsey

I wasn't sure about the outcome when I curated this closed-door roundtable discussion about Generative AI and Music at this year's Reeperbahn Festival. The conversation about such a controversial topic was bound to get heated with 30 people from across the music and tech industry in one room. But because it was a closed-door session, everybody in the room contributed very openly to the vivacious conversation with questions, opinions, and thoughts - without any prejudgement. The discussion was intense but very respectful. I chose a graphic recording as form of documentation to summarize the 2-hour long session not only because it looks beautiful but also because it captures the most important points anonymously. Thanks to the amazing Anne Lehmann who managed to follow the sometimes pretty specific and nuanced arguments while simultaneously creating this graphic recording of the roundtable. She is a true master of multitasking using different senses. Kudos to Rebecca (Becky) Brook, Bruno Kramm, Cliff Fluet, Martin Clancy and Olivia Coléon for their expertise and openness, Dennis Kastrup for conducting this conversation, and all the participants who contributed to it. It was great fun and very insightful. Let's have more constructive discussions that allow sharing of fears, transfer of knowledge, and access to insights from people from different areas and with different expertise and opinions. I would like to encourage other curators and conference organisers to also create a safe space for such conversations and make use of graphic recording artists. It ensures that the essence of the conversation will be remembered without any bias. #musicindustry #roundtable #GenerativeAI #music #musictech

The Future of Music: A Win-Win for Artists and Fans: Great conversation with Finbar OHanlon - CCInO, CInP, John Pisciotta, Jeremy 'JERM' Davis and Mark Adkison on the future of AI and Music/Art/IP. "Since the dawn of recorded music, fans have been passive consumers, with little control over their listening experience. AI is changing the game. It empowers fans to actively participate in the creative process and generates personalized music experiences. By focusing on the likeness of an artist's work, we can unlock new revenue streams for artists while providing fans with unprecedented control and customization." Let's build a future where artists and fans thrive together.

History. Today, we at www.lemonaide.ai launched the FIRST EVER, Artist-focused compositional AI model, generating audio and MIDIs for users (mainly producers, but anyone can use it). These Artist Models were created with 4 billboard charting, Grammy Nominated artist/producers with their consent. So, none of the data we used was stolen, therefore our customers are safe from any legal concerns. The best part is that these artists hold majority of the profit share. This is more than just a tool, it’s a sign to the Music Industry, in order for AI in Music to continue, it MUST prioritize the artist. To do that, the industry and its consumers must be willing to support the human creators more than the humans making AI to create. If people and organizations aren’t willing to support the human creators, then it’s all Backwards. All new website and more information at www.lemonaide.ai Shoutout Michael "MJ" Jacob for getting me on the team back in 2023 and for everything so far - but we have much more to do🍋🍋🍋

Everyone is talking about the major label lawsuits against Suno and Udio, and this being a "warning" for what is to come. Sure, it is a black eye to GenAI in music, but let's not assume this is a blanket problem across the industry. It's quite simple, actually. Have clear, original, and licensed data that you are training with and be transparent with your datasets. These practices are probably occurring with more AI companies than we think, yet it is still not as big of a problem in the industry as we think. We are still in the semi-early stages of GenAI in music, but there are many of us that are using clean data to create useful platforms! These issues will resolve themselves over time #suno #udio #genai # AI #music #AImusic #MachineLearning #AIvocals #AICommunity
