Music Dealers Panels: Vote Music Dealers on SXSW 2012 Panel Picker
August 16, 2011, 4:13pm
In anticipation of SXSW 2012, we at Music Dealers have put together what we believe to be the most informative panel on music supervision and licensing.
There is a catch! This year all panels are being voted on by the people! Panel selections will be decided 30% by the public, 30% by SXSW Staff, and 40% by SXSW's Advisory Board. With that said, we need your help!
Vote for the panel by clicking the green "thumbs up" over at SXSW's Panel Picker. Feel free to drop a comment too! Voters are required to login/sign-up to participate. Voting ends Friday, September 2nd.
Check out the panelists and a brief description below:
Where There's Music, There's Money
SXSW 2012 | Panel Picker Ideas
Panelists:
- Eric Sheinkop - Music Dealers
- Maureen Crowe - President of Guild of Music Supervisors
- Kier Beleman - Director of Creative Music Affairs, Sony Music Entertainment
- Gary Calamar - Music Supervisor - GO Music (Music Supervisor for True Blood, Dexter)
- Stump Mahoney - Music Supervisor, Draft FCB
Description:
"We've heard it time and again, record labels are losing prominence in today's music industry and touring isn't the financial haven it was thought to be. For artists, that means learning other parts of the music game besides records and touring. We're talking music licensing: quickly reviewing the players and the legalities, but with a focus on the steps for success, and of course, the payments these can garner. This means learning about who sits at the creative and bargaining tabels - music supervisors, publishers, music libraries, music production companies - and what their preferences are. It also means learning about new and upcoming developments in the industry. This knowledge provides tools for every artist, manager, publisher, cataloger and supervisor."
Music Dealers Company News: Policy Change For Artists

Music Dealers will no longer be notifying artists about placements under $2,500. We will be updating the Deal Board daily, so they will all still be listed on there.

Music Dealers Company News: Music Dealers London Opens October 1st!
August 13, 2010, 9:12amAs we've hinted over the past several months, Music Dealers is officially opening a London location October 1st (yeah, right around the corner). E and I have been roaming London for the past week looking for office space and this morning we wrapped up the perfect spot! Not only is it an incredible space, it's walking distance from all the agencies in SoHo, surrounded by handfuls of restaurants and right next to the tube (London underground train system).
As we do in NY, we'll be sharing the space with another company - Jack Media London. They have the first floor and we'll be in the space upstairs.
Check out the photos...we'll keep everyone updated as more details develop!
