@Rebeccaredhead I agree - when you live next to a cultural giant, important to give Cdn's a way to reach audiences without getting drowned out. #MUS2011

@alisonmacarth Do you think that artists from larger population areas have an advantage over talented artists from smaller countries/provinces? #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

@KearseyVanessa Yes, right?! I wasnt sure what I was expecting but I enjoyed that doc a lot - she's incredibly driven. #badass #MUS2011

Can-Con req's create a favourable biz environment for cdn artists. In a tech world, it can assist them in getting their start. #MUS2011

@s24alb @DaphneWard_2017 @staceypowell_ Not even when it's outright theft tho? Where do you draw the line?

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

Schlock or not, we've learned that pop music would not be what it was today without reinterpretation. #MUS2011

@Y_eseulpark Janis Joplin! Theres something about her raw and real voice that screams (literally) emotion. Mercedes Benz & Cry Baby for example. #MUS2011

@KearseyVanessa So intense! You cant watch one of his sets without moving along with the upbeat songs, and singing along with the passionate ones. #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

Timeless in the history of blues and soul, Ray's cracking voice is like an jolt of emotion, kicking true feeling at the listener. #MUS2011

Music engineering tech is also contributing to a change in how music is made. Studio quality edits with macbook and a good mic! #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

YouTube allowed a number of PopStars to rise out of their online fame. Bieber, Alessia Cara, The Weekend all got their start there. #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

@KearseyVanessa I'd say yes. Prior, ppl had little ctrl over mass radio/TV feed. Now, while a variety of options exist - users have choice online. #mus2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

False needs in cultural industries: let me count the ways:
'I'm the One' DJ Khaled f. Bieber, Lil Wayne https://t.co/MWj1AjyRiq #MUS2011

3/3 With rise of streaming and ease of access to music and music production - will this need to change for the industry to survive? #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

2/2 audience, the mass population doesnt often pursue the music they consume. They take whats provided through trad channels... 2/3 #MUS2011

[MD Baird @MoeAtMUN]

There will always be passive listeners and active listeners. The pop music industry will often cater to a more passive... 1/2 #MUS2011
