How Music Has Evolved into the Digital Age
Before the digital age, music was a lot different. If you wanted to listen to music, you had to buy CDs or vinyl records, and if you wanted to hear a specific song, you had to sit through an entire album just to get to it.
Nowadays, of course, we have iTunes and Spotify and other digital music platforms that let us listen to whatever we want, whenever we want. It's hard to imagine going back to the old way of doing things! But what if there were a way for musicians and music industry professionals to share craft, digitally?
I’m so excited to share today’s guest, Owen Grover, CEO of TrueFire Studios, who will be sharing with us all about the digitalisation of learning within the music industry and its benefits compared to traditional methods.
Main Topics:
- The digitalisation of learning within the music industry and its benefits compared to traditional methods. - The intersection of music and tech, and its evolution during the pandemic.- What Owen has learned about e-learning after serving over 3M customers.
Key Takeaways:
- Help artists make money - Create instructional content- The intersection of music and tech
