August 8th, 2008 · 3 Comments
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about just who gets affected by decisions made about how music gets from performer/writer to audience - so much of the discussion on this stuff revolves around the wishes and careers of record company execs and ‘rock stars’ - those handful of the world’s musicians who are […]
