Music Technology : Listen to The Music
For listening, you need to find quality material. Information on the Internet is such that sometimes do not know if what we read is a reliable source or not, so do not take very seriously to blogs or Myspace, because no one regulating its quality. Fortunately there are sites established within the network that already have a great reputation. I can visit the page of the CMJ, the nme, I can visit the pitchfork half drowned in sound or which are outlined in three to five albums to date. This forces the current consumer to “listen” at least 20 albums a week. No one can deal with attention to four discs per day. Definitely.

Paradoxically, the music returned to its heritage in which only sound, but now with a lack of artistic gesture, often produced not only by himself but by the inability of us, we have saturated the deaf hear both our ears and just believe in names. (more…)

Music Technology : Addiction to DownloadWhile the music itself can become a vice, music lovers a decade ago had a concern about the quality as high cost represented a crucial determinant to shut out the poor quality material. This caused the scouts need to buy quality things.

However, the addiction to music is not based on a need for quality work, the service responds to a requirement of membership. The good listener of the nineties was one who had the greatest amount of quality material, the rare item was worth not only its uniqueness but for their aesthetic taste.

However, with the arrival of massive downloads no longer seek to be a connoisseur but a good loader. Downloads addict is like the alcoholic who no longer distinguishes between whiskey or tonality of straws so it is alcohol. The new listener has need for the file, you must know inside your computer.

Music Technology : The Good Listener
Over the years closest to our present time, coined the idea that the more I knew who else had was music. John Peel, with his famous Peel Sessions became the icon par excellence of a good listener when we let them know that he was in the unfortunate position of having to buy the house near which lived to keep his records.

Many people began to respect for his tremendous ability to use and search. Especially considering that man was the context of the term free broadband. Turning a new and unfamiliar material was indeed an admirable job. (more…)

Music Technology : One Way Click
Mp3 and digital players have changed the way we listen to music and the same habits of modern consumer choice.

Currently it is impossible to think of popular music without turning to see our computers, each computer has at least one digital track (at least for you to test your music player) and everyone at some point we have lost at least one disk.

With the rapid development of Internet this is a huge universe of possibilities for music, whether in blogs or torrents. The constant desire and interest for the new demand to users spend hours and hours looking for the flavor of the month, the amount of information that we ran after seeing that access to the electronic window was so simple, it was monstrous.

Big Mind

Thursday, May 19th, 2011

Although the music scene in our country is not yet well developed and, despite his talent, the bands grow slowly, we find this group has achieved in less time a great success and prominence, not only in Lima but also in provinces .

big mind

We introduce “The Mind” basically “as the song says,” are the senders of a proposed new Anti Pop, rich with tropical music, ie electropical influence.

Considered the best band in Peru in 2008, the mind has made the most amount of fans with his album Sound System – electropical.

Their music mixes reggae, dub and a little cumbia. But especially, Mind identify the stories that arise in their songs, which express social and cultural issues happening in Peru. This album is illustrative a warning to the authorities and the blindness of the Peruvian regarding the problems of a country full of stories and life.

Created in 2005, YouTube is one of the most popular websites in the world, allowing millions of users to view, rate and upload videos. If you want to try your hand at YouTube superstardom, the site accepts videos up to 10 minutes long in most common video formats.

2. Sign in to your account by clicking “Sign In” and entering your user name and password.

4. Enter a title for the video in the “Title” text box and a description in the text box below that. Enter tags in the third text box–these are keywords that will help users find your video.

Music Distribution in the Digital Age

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

It used to be that if you wanted to get your music distributed, you had to get sign a deal with a music distribution company. Getting such a deal would be dependent on how well the company thought your music would sell. So they would look at who’s promoting your music, how they were doing it, how well known you are and whether or not their A&R people thought your music would sell in their own opinion.

In short, getting your music distributed was very difficult for independent artists. A record deal was nearly essential.

Thanks to the internet, things are somewhat different now. Selling music online is an inherently cheaper process than selling physical music through bricks and mortar record shops. Fundamentally, distribution is a one-time process that requires nothing physical to be moved. As such, many online music distribution companies have popped up offering cheap distribution to anyone.

Not only does it cost next to nothing for the distributors to get your tracks out to places like iTunes, but it costs the shops next to nothing to store them. As such, music distribution has opened up to anyone with the money, and many distributors accept one off payments to get your music out there, rather than taking a percentage cut as they used to (and still do for physical distribution).

Coupled with all the free tools available to independent musicians in the digital age, it means that in principle, musicians can release and promote an album on the same footing as those signed to major record labels.

Selling music online has made a tremendous difference to the way music is distributed and consumed. Now that anyone can get their music onto iTunes and spread the word about it on the internet, there are far fewer ‘essential’ releases, as people’s listening habits are no longer dictated by a certain few radio stations and magazines, and even less so by who is given access to limited shelf space.

The way music is distributed has fundamentally changed the way people discover and buy music, as well as musician’s own approach to their music .Rather than endlessly chasing investment from a record company, many musicians now take the opportunity of digital music distribution to promote and sell their own music, cutting out the middle man and learning the business in the process. Some people may say musician’s should concentrate on their music, rather than business, but selling music online offers tremendous freedom.
