Projekt

The music industry has changed a lot over the last 20 years. It is harder for musicians to make money selling music, but it’s easier than before to reach a global audience. Musicians, producers, managers and other players in the music industry must learn to work in new ways to generate revenue and growth. There is a great potential in the music industry learning to think market-oriented and gaining a deep understanding of the music industry’s terms. These challenges call for the Municipality of Aalborg and the local music industry to join forces in this project.

Vision: Project must contribute to both creating economic growth, and to create a framework for a creative, productive and market-oriented music environment. It will support and create concrete initiatives within the area of rhythmic music that will benefit musicians and local music contractors; independent organizers, managers, music companies, producers, musicians and agencies.

Impact: Professionalizing music industry, Supporting bands / musicians to adapt to the new conditions of the music market, creating a framework for peer learning and mentorship.
