The music industry is a source of constant discussion and continual innovation - Shazam, Spotify, Pandora, Songkick – not to mention the grand daddy of them all, iTunes sitting on top of the heap with Apple working hard to keep the throne when it comes to music and content.īut, in Bologna, Italy, lies a new music start up who decided that lyrics are where its at in the new music value chain. “The music industry and everyone inside of it have been forced to explore all the cracks and corners of the music world to find value for the consumer and clever ways to consume and experience music so that the money wheels keep turning.”Ĭoe is right.
“That’s because music can never be superseded or replaced by technology, it’s just the way we consume it that has changed.”Īccording to Coe, with disruption comes innovation, and the music industry has spawned some of the most innovative technologies currently used. “Not many industries in our world have suffered so much disruption yet still exist, as the music industry has,” said Jeff Coe, serial entrepreneur and independent advisor in digital content. I don’t like it, but I have come to accept this. I usually get the proverbial hand – or ‘try searching again with different terms’. When I try and find a song on Spotify or iTunes and I can’t remember much about it, I search on key words, genre or lyrics I remember.
Like most people, I go to Google, type in the band/lyrics and spend the next two hours slogging through the garbage Google dredges up. When I want to look up lyrics today, I do it rather sloppily.
