Is The Music Business Finally Rebounding? New Numbers Say Yes.

Posted on by Josh

Great article in Forbes magazine last week about the music industry’s rebound, entitled “Is the Music Business Finally Rebounding? New Numbers Say Yes.” For the first time since 2004, overall music sales are up. Sales aren’t up much (1.4%), but it’s been eight years since sales have been up, at all. A great sign, regardless of your measure. Also, 2012 is already shaping up to see huge focus on live shows/merch & sync licensing as new focus areas of growth for artists and labels. This is going to be one exciting year for the music industry.

Posted on by Rob

Tuaca, a favorite liqueur that is served across the United States, teamed with famed tattoo artist Corey Miller, who was one of the stars of the hit reality show “L.A. Ink”, to have him create a customized label for their flagship brand.

The label was used for their Perfect Chill campaign, in which once a bottle of Tuaca reaches the perfect chilled temperature, Corey Miller’s custom label comes to life!

The clip, which you can see above, used the instrumental version of Rumblefish artist The Lions Rampant’s “All Night RNR”.

Check out the web clip above, and remember, if you need that music that will make your video presentation or web-based project POP, make sure you give us a call to take a crack at it!
