Building on its various innovation-led initiatives of the past 12 months, including its groundbreaking Grow Music partnership with London & Partners announced in July, the BPI today airs Episode 3 of its new BPI Innovation Podcasts.

In this third episode, host and BPI Innovation Manager Amalie Briden chats with Rahmon Agbaje Co-Founder of Loud Parade, and On Da Beat’s Co-Founder Daniel Katty.  Both companies support artist development, including through brand partnerships. The two guests explore what this can look like through the lens of the modern music industry, and what mutual benefits there can be for artists and rightsholders in working closely with brands. The discussion also touches on the authenticity of brand partnership activities and how these can help to bring in new revenue streams alongside existing income channels to support artists in their career development.

Airing fortnightly on alternate Thursdays, the BPI Innovation Podcast aims to spotlight the most interesting, innovative ideas that are taking shape across the music industry today. They will look to highlight exciting new technologies that are powering or are being powered by music and by the innovative record labels and start-ups collaborating successfully to shape the future of our industry.

Hosted by BPI’s Innovation Manager, Amalie Briden, and produced by the BPI’s Laura Bower, each episode will explore a key issue – and the opportunities or challenges that come with this.  It will bring together record label executives, start-up founders, and other voices drawn from across the BPI’s community of members and partners, to explore their unique perspectives. 

The BPI Innovation Podcast series is designed for anyone working in, or interested in the recorded music industry and the tech start-ups and scale-ups that are shaping meaningful change in how we discover, consume and engage with music.  Listeners can tune in to hear case-studies and real-world examples of how innovation is blossoming in the music industry, and so better understand the types of partnerships that are flourishing between labels and start-ups.
