Arts Funding: What's the Matter With Sweden? #theknife - Marc Hogan (Pitchfork)
"The first time the Knife got money from the Swedish Arts Council was in 2001, for their self-titled debut album. The electro-pop duo received 45,000 Swedish kronor (SEK), or about $6,327-- "pretty standard for albums back then," says lead singer Karin Dreijer Andersson. Statens Kulturråd, as the arts council is known, awarded funding for the Knife in 2006, too. That time, Andersson (who also records as Fever Ray) and brother Olof Dreijer received 80,000 SEK, or $11,248, through label Rabid as tour support for their first-- and, so far, only-- U.S. shows. "We have a long history of social democratic culture in Sweden, which I think has made this possible," Andersson explains." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

The Music has to be GREAT - Paul Resnikoff (Digital Music News) - http://digitalmusicnews.com/stories...
"Perhaps making a living through art will always remains a tricky endeavor, regardless of the era. But if great music is timeless, what makes it so good? Forget about the critics, a snooty class that was somewhat marginalized by the information-friendly, media-rich internet. Instead, the subjective question is answered by the numbers. That is, if an artist connects with an audience in a real, sustaining way through their 'content,' then the music is 'good'. And those fans will spread the word, through a variety of 'word-of-mouth' channels - online and off. It's a start, and in fact, the only way to start." - Miguel Caetano

Pitchfork // A Statistical Look at Their Ratings « Part-Time Music
Show all
"About a week or so ago, there was a hearty discussion on twitter from well-known music bloggers about the controversial 7.6 rating by Pitchfork of Toro y Moi’s excellent debut LP Causers of This. Since I am guilty of being more of a mathematician than a writer, I decided that this was a great opportunity to dive right into the numbers and do a brief statistical study of Pitchfork’s rankings from a period of one complete year and see where exactly Chaz Bundick’s 7.6 grade stacked up in comparison to his peers. After sifting through the data most of yesterday afternoon, I have to say there are some pretty interesting finds (including some statistical anomalies) behind Pitchfork’s rating system for albums." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

Spanish Indies Challenge Govt On Piracy 'Negligence' - Howell Llewellyn (Billboard) - http://login.vnuemedia.com/bbbiz...
"A sizeable chunk of the Spanish indie label and distribution sector is preparing to take the government to court on charges of negligence, and demand compensation for the damage done to the sector by "massive free downloading" over the past few years. The labels have drawn up a dossier of information about the damage caused by piracy to the indie sector, and in mid-February sent it to the government. The labels - which all belong to 46-member indie label association UFI or its equivalent in Catalonia, Apecat - gave the government one month to respond." - Miguel Caetano

Voddler: Spotify for movies hacked again #streaming #hack - Darkreverser’s Weblog #voddlergate - http://darkreverser.wordpress.com/2010...
"Voddler released an update to their client today. Here’s a new hack that works with that version. There were some minor protocol changes designed to prevent this hack, but they were easy to circumvent! Maybe that’s why they were down all day today!! It would probably be cheaper for their business to comply with GPL rules instead, then I wouldn’t have to spend a precious hour on breaking their protection every second day." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

Abbey Road is sacred, and not just for its Beatles - Simon Heffer (Telegraph)
"What is happening at Abbey Road needs to be seen as a warning to our whole musical life: but a warning to whom? This is beyond the power of governments to put right, I fear. We must rely on the co-operative efforts of our people to maintain something approaching a flourishing musical life." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

#LINCHPIN: o livro de motivação e de negócios mais perigoso, simples e revolucionário de sempre. O que Seth Godin diz é que num mercado laboral flexível, ninguém se pode dar ao luxo de ser como os outros, de seguir o rebanho. Quem o faz, torna-se "redundante". Porque os meios de produção passaram a estar acessíveis à maioria e não ap. a 1 minoria.
Este é um livro que ao contrário do que é habitual neste tipo de literatura não diz "engana, rouba, dissimula, 'aniquila'" mas sim pura e simplesmente "partilha, colabora, sê tu próprio e tenta sempre superar-te." - Miguel Caetano

The Truth About  Mashable (journalism or pure marketing?) - Adam Singer (The Future Buzz)
"None of these things are bad if you’re Mashable – they’re great.  They helped position the brand as appealing to the masses, then advertisers, and potentially for purchase if the rumors are true.  However I highly doubt any marketing, technology or web pros worth their salt find blinding insights from Mashable daily.  That’s just not what they provide." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

Has The Recording Industry Reached The Bargaining Stage Of Grief? - Mike Masnick (Techdirt) /via @filipemarques - http://techdirt.com/article...
"Instead, the word that I kept hearing was "quiet." Almost everyone you spoke to mentioned how "quiet" Midem was this year. Attendance was down (apparently about 10% from last year, when I remember them saying that attendance had also been down about 10%), but that's not too surprising given the state of the economy and the general turmoil of the industry. However, it was still quite well-attended, and the thing I noticed was that there was actually quite a lot of activity going on behind the "quietness." And that activity was dealmaking. Lots of it. I talked to many people working for companies that are enabling and embracing new business models, and they were swamped with deal opportunities and discussions. Sure, the major record labels have all but disappeared from the show, but the companies that are enabling what comes next were quite busy -- just behind the scenes." - Miguel Caetano

"Assim, a partir das 14h00 do dia 20 de Janeiro a ACAPOR, e quem a ela se quiser juntar, permanecerá 24 horas no Largo Camões em Lisboa, junto ao Ministério da Economia da Inovação e do Desenvolvimento, alertando para este gravíssimo problema." - paula simoes ☃
"Mas faremos mais. Vamos fazer downloads ilegais ali mesmo, na rua, durante as 24 horas que durar a concentração." - paula simoes ☃
Coitadinhos... - Marcos Marado
Marcos: coitadinhos nada, eles têm tido peixinhos incalculáveis! - paula simoes ☃
Numa leitura diagonal o único erro notório é rotular como "crime" sacar conteúdos não licenciados. Mas tinha graça se fossem de alguma forma importunados pelas autoridades por isso. - Luis Canau
Luis: Falta de vírgulas, percas em vez de perdas, falta de acentos, "porquê que ficaremos"... - paula simoes ☃
Ah, português, OK. Bom, e em números de quatro dígitos também não se usa espaço a separar. Perca, além de peixe, é uma alternativa a perda. Pode ser "popular", mas não é um "erro". - Luis Canau
As notícias/"press releases", etc não devem ser escritas em linguagem popular, pelo que no contexto referido considero-o um erro. - paula simoes ☃
Então, quem é que vai lá com uma música e uma voz a dizer "você não roubaria um carro, você não roubaria uma carteira, você não sacaria filmes durante 24h no meio da rua, ..." - Marcos Marado from fftogo

Sim, uma coisa faz tanto sentido como a outra. Com a diferença que chacinar animais poderia sensibilizar algumas pessoas, enquanto que um grupo de senhores a sacar ficheiros da Internet em protesto com os downloads ilegais, imagino eu, é apenas motivo de riso. - Luis Canau

#MAJORS: Sony Makes (dot) Believe It Knows What It Wants To Be When It Grows Up - Bruce Houghton (hypebot)
"In September, Sony announced it would unify its global brand messaging under the banner: make.believe. (The dot is spoken when saying the slogan.) So far, the new focus hasn't lead to any breakthrough products or rush to embrace the Sony brand. But that hasn't slowed Sony's efforts to convince us with a very expensive ads series of make.believe ads. (Watch the latest ad here). The messaging touches all the bases but is devoid of any specific new products or ideas. Perhaps that's because Sony doesn't have any..." - Miguel Caetano from Bookmarklet

"This oft-referenced article is from the early '90s, and originally appeared in Maximum Rock 'n' Roll magazine.

"These A & R guys are not allowed to write contracts. What they do is present the band with a letter of intent, or "deal memo," which loosely states some terms, and affirms that the band will sign with the label once a contract has been agreed on. The spookiest thing about this harmless sounding little memo, is that it is, for all legal purposes, a binding document. That is, once the... more... - Marcos Marado

MOG looks and sounds good, but has big gaps [Big news ;-)] - Matt Rosoff (Digital Noise: Music and Tech - CNET News) - http://news.cnet.com/8301-13...
"Because MOG is licensing content directly from copyright owners, there are big gaps from artists who simply don't want to participate in online music. The usual suspects like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, and the Beatles are mostly missing in action. There are also strange gaps elsewhere. For instance, half the songs on the Pixies' "Surfer Rosa" are unplayable. Compared with Grooveshark, which relies on user-posted content, MOG has too many holes. And of course, Grooveshark remains free (although a $3/month subscription gets you a version without advertisements). " - Miguel Caetano
