Example text

With the aim of identifying new and evolving career trajectories, models and strategies, our research targeted music practices and practitioners. We addressed the primary research questions: (1) What are the new music industries? (2) What constitutes career development within these industries? (3) How do artists manage career development and/or a sustainable trajectory within the new industries? The research team brought together investigators with a range of expertise. Our team was comprised of experienced practitioners in several areas of music including music production, artist development, music education and artist management.

Major record labels devolving risk relates primarily to our Entrepreneur and DIY models, although in the digital economy, all three models may be relevant particularly if labels function as service providers.

While we focus on the new music industries, we also discuss some industries in this chapter that are not specifically related to music. We therefore acknowledge that some of the new industries are not dedicated music industries but encompass music practices such as crowdfunding sites. 9.
