This week on Digital Music Trends I chat with Sammy Andrews, Head of Digital at independent label Cooking Vinyl, and Steve Rennie, the founder of Renman Music and Business and former manager of Incubus.

We start by discussing the recent deal between BandPage and Spotify to showcase merch items on artists' Spotify pages. We also discuss the recent SFX earnings and the long-term prospects of the company, Pono's super-successful new Crowdfunder campaign, we have Mixcloud's co-founder Nico Perez join us with some exciting news from the company and chat about the latest at Vevo.

Sammy and Steve also chat about their latest projects.
