Music Industry New Media Trends
This last few weeks I ran across SEVERAL trends for 2008 in the music industry and just thought I would share. Very interesting as you know this is the way the music business would eventually head but WOW, so many areas to consider. We even have a few discussions going at New Media Hire.
Below I have tried to compile them:
* Viral Videos: Takes a lot of creativity but this can be an incredible vehicle than can get an artist know from a few hundred to a few million in just a week.
* Self Promotion: More artists will take control of their own promotional needs by implementing their own ideal of what their brand is.
* Digital Related Sales: From ring tones and downloads and artist sites, who really purchases CD’s.
* Free Music: This is way to give you a taste of the music but some free music is already paid for via advertisers or a combination of sponsors so listeners are gained.
* Online PR: As print media is shrinking the online readership is massively GROWING.
* Wireless, Wireless, Wireless: Make it as easy and painless to access and download that even novice can handle it.
* Niches: Genres are cool BUT if you like a song you like it! Some music you just can’t put in a category.
* Blogs: Artist blogs or those that blog about music. The more your name gets out there the more interest there is.
* Marketing: Nothing beats in your face marketing that you can’t seem to avoid.
* Getting Fans Involved: Letting the fan base feel like they are actively involved in your music! Naming a song, voting on what is on a release album etc.
* Social media technologies: People tend to talk about and share their experiences and favorite music and where they got it from. Artists have been discovered just from their social media sites.
One that I didn’t see that could very well go with another growing digital industry trend is the use of certain music incorporated in to video games! Love the game, love the song! They do this an extent but could definitely be more targeted.
Check out some new media related jobs in the music industry and take part in these trends.

Sound Driver Question!!!!! Help Me!!!!!!?
Ive been getting this error whenever i start my laptop that says “WARNING – Cannot Access Volume Control!” and i think it has something to do with my sound cards drivers (I’m not sure so pls tell me if im wrong). So now ive been trying to find a driver update and cant find one. My laptop is a Toshiba P105-S6084 and I use Windows XP Media Center Edition and my sound card thingy is Conexant High Definition Audio.
Please be specific! A link would be great.
thx
The Windows XP Media edition was pre-installed. I don’t have the Cd
I Google’d and found an update of my driver but that didn’t fix it. What else can I do? I don’t want to have to pay someone to fix it.
To resolve this issue, extract a new copy of Sndvol32.exe from the Windows XP compact disc to the system_rootSystem32 folder on your computer’s hard disk.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. Insert the Windows XP CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. Press and hold down the SHIFT key as you insert the CD-ROM to prevent it from starting automatically.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type cmd, and then click OK.
4. Type the following lines at the command prompt, pressing ENTER after each line, where CD-ROM drive is the drive letter of the computer’s CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive that contains the Windows XP CD-ROM, and system_root is the path and folder name where the Windows system files are located (generally C:Windows):
CD-ROM drive:
cd i386
expand sndvol32.ex_ system_rootsystem32sndvol32.exe
Or:
Quick Mixer Size 154 kB Win 9x/NT/ME/2000/XP
Quick Mixer 1.8.3 (last freeware version) is a tray-agent alternative to the Windows Volume Control (SNDVOL32.EXE). Quick Mixer is re-sizeable and has many settings which affect the way it looks and acts. Quick Mixer is a great replacement for that little yellow speaker icon that may now be in your tray! Quick Mixer controls Main-Volume, Main-Treble, Main-Bass and up-to 16 playback audio sources! Quick Mixer gives you access to every available playback mute on your sound-card. Quick Mixer gives you access to the first on/off check under Advanced, Other Controls. Quick Mixer allows you to create 10 audio profiles and optionally starts up with a default profile. Quick Mixer has full install support and un-installs through the Control Panel.
basically… just download the “sndvol32.zip” file and extract it to the C:windowssystem32 folder … if is already exist… just replace the existing file with the newly downloaded file. and then you might have to restart your computer and that should fix your problem.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
