Education is the foundation of artist development. After signing a new client, most of our interactions revolve around getting them up to speed about the music industry and how current trends practically impact them.
Exciting to see more companies tackling this long-standing issue. If these resources are properly vetted, this could change how a whole generation of artists interact within the traditional entertainment industry and deal with music technology providers. Unfortunately, a surprising amount of people I talk to rely on ideas they’ve received from misinformed online sources. This puts them in the dangerous position of thinking they know where they’re going, but in reality the financials of their deals are subject to nuances that they don’t fully understand.
Education isn’t limited to the earliest phase of your career. Entertainment and technology is constantly changing. The world’s top artists are committed to educating themselves and relying on the best advisors to maintain their edge.
Ensuring you and your advisors understand the nuances and trends of the music and entertainment industries is critical.

Love this article that shows the middle ground between #music and #education.
When I first started working on music at TikTok I read the book "All You Need to Know About the Music Business" by Don Passman and it gave me such a good run down of everything you would need to know. But even by the time I read the book, it was a little dated because of the speed of the industry.
Companies like Spotify and TIDAL are taking on the challenge to keep people educated about the music industry. Love to see this and I think this will help usher in the next generation and future of the industry!

Sweden is known for a lot of good things. But, to my primary concern, their music export game is absolutely second to none.
In 2014, 25% of the songs that reached the US Top 10 were co-written by Swedish songwriters - most notably, Max Martin. House music is littered with names from Sweden - RIP to Avicii. In fact, South Korea actively hired Swedish songwriters to help them craft some of the world's biggest K-Pop hits. ABBA are from Sweden. Spotify and SoundCloud have Swedish founders - music tech innovation is fierce in the country.
Henrik Karlsson puts forth 2 important factors as to why Sweden succeeded this well at music. One was the rise of self-organized study circles for the service of society, that lobbied with the state to get more funding (which is, a large chunk of the budget). However, the study circles lost their primary purpose, and instead turned into associations to learn anything that people find cool. Among those associations included "bands".
The second is subsidized public music schools which included 1-1 tutoring. Usually, private institutions excel in providing 1-1 tutoring, because people are willing to pay a premium for it. But that also means that such tutoring is restricted to higher-income families. It's hard to organize ground-up institutions / movements where the love of music is ingrained in a large section of society - which makes Sweden such a miraculous story. Around 600,000 Swedes regularly sing in choirs.
The importance of public institutions in building markets - and, in this case, scenes - could not be better exemplified. They don't have to come from the government, either. They can be groups of people willing to come together to form a spontaneous order that fosters knowledge creation, creativity, and sometimes, some incredible market successes. These public programs pay themselves back in those market successes in the form of kickbacks or taxes on the profits.
I am a DJ on the side. I get a ringside view to relatively new scenes forming in India. Drum-n-bass, trap, techno, and most notably hip-hop in recent times. I love that it's a group of individuals sharing an interest in music who not only want to make it out on their own, but are willing to share what worked for them and what didn't. What's also evident is the clear lack of institutional help. One can never predict when institutional intervention is required (or if), but the opportunity often presents itself.
Because you never know when a bunch of public school music tutors decide to gang up and make some song about a Canadian city where Napoleon fought.
