Next week I’ll be at the annual Big Sound Conference in Brisbane, chairing a panel titled ‘The Gatekeepers’ featuring author & journalist Everett True, U.S. Radio Plugger Paul Brown, Richard Kingsmill, Music Director of Triple J; Mike Walsh from Xfm Network and Paul Cashmere from Undercover Media.
Here’s the blurb: As we progress from a world of radio and music magazines telling us what’s cool and what to listen to, has a sea change arrived where everyone’s a tastemaker online? Is there such thing as a music “expert” anymore and what are media doing to prove their credentials as sources audiences can trust to show the way.
