digital music ecosystem

[The Computer Audiophile]

This is a really interesting development.

 

"... new alliance between hip-hop impresario Dr. Dre, Interscope Chairman Jimmy Iovine, and computer maker Hewlett-Packard aims to save digital music ..."

That article is a great find, Chris. There is so much irony in that story! Funny.

Iovine and Dr. Dre are off to a great start with a wall of attention grabbing catch-phrases like "digital music ecosystem" and "take that doggy door and make it a garage door".

One of the ambitious goals is to take a generation of bass slamming low rez lovin' rap music fans and turn them into young, buck Michael Fremers.

 

These are trends that this site and others in the music biz have predicted would happen. And help from the rap/hip hop community and HP are more than appreciated. "The Times They Are A-Changin'...

 

Come writers and critics

Who prophesize with your pen

And keep your eyes wide

The chance won't come again

And don't speak too soon

For the wheel's still in spin

And there's no tellin' who

That it's namin'.

For the loser now

Will be later to win

For the times they are a-changin'. "

 

The great Bob Dylan with some "rap" about the music business.
