What the “Digital Download Era” Means for Artist

As we put a decade behind us, I feel it is important to look back at where we came from, and to look forward to where we are going. We all know how the digital downloading epidemic affected the music industry, as the better part of the last decade consisted of product flying out the door without the security alarms going off. We were also blessed with the iPod, which let us consolidate our entire music catalog onto a pocket-sized music player. I was wandering around the Internet when I stumbled upon this great article from Nick Crocker. Posted below is a link to this article in which he explains what we can expect from an ever-changing music industry in this coming year.

If you feel lost in a world of changing technologies and changing plans in the music industry, and you feel you need some guidance, do not hesitate to contact us here at Artist Development Network. Whether it is answering your questions about what to expect from record labels, what your demo should sound like, or even song critiques, we are here for you. Don't get swept away in the changing world, step up and be a landmark!
