@aaronleetasjan1 Thank YOU!

@sethvthem @RobPeoni I’m their lawyer, not publicist! But I’ll be at the Indy show for sure.

It would be self-destructive act, but I'd really love to create a bingo card of all the bottom-feeder "labels" who reach out in DMs the second a track goes viral.

@ih8yourtweets @KCEsq Let's all do that.

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

@KCEsq @ih8yourtweets There are rare exceptions. Over the weekend I sent a client’s producer some mix notes. But the producer is a hero of mine and he asked for them, and the album is already great. The opposite of turd polishing. But the bottom line is it has to be great.

@KyleCoroneos Thanks for this review. It’s been a remarkable journey, and Grateful is the perfect title for this body of work, this phase of the band.

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

@Jaypotta Love them

@pkugrse @WDVX @WMOT_RootsRadio @KPIG @houndfm I'm a huge supporter of non-comm and the more independent community, college, and triple-A stations. That's not what Andy is talking about, though.

@shooterjennings @TennesseeJet Public sentiment is so strongly anti-AI that Spotify will have to address the problem in more effective ways or lose market share to platforms that will. Suno’s launch has been so horrific that it’ll set music AI back years. A fraud/garbage factory, and Spotify enables it.

A “recorded music radius clause” is also known as an exclusive term in a recording agreement. I have no insight here in particular, but typically it lasts 6-12 months after an album’s release, assuming the contract ends with the last album.

Charley Crockett's new album "Clovis" has been yanked from streaming services.

@talltodd65 Oh yeah I think that’s right. I doubt I ever registered the song because we never recorded it.

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

@talltodd65 Thank you!

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

@talltodd65 Jake got it right away - it’s called Unmet Friend. He cut it for the first Mysteries of Life album.

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

@talltodd65 Man. I remember the song but not the lyrics or title. It’s Jake Smith’s song, I’m gonna ask him if he remembers.

[John P. Strohm @johnpstrohm]

I know what truly won't age well...

”You're not gonna win, there's no fighting AI”

Diplo's take on AI is spot on, and he's ahead of 99% of creatives, across all disciplines

amazing interview by @DanielSWall

@KCEsq Hold on to that skill, brother. It’s increasingly rare.
