Name That Tune
For years, ad agencies and TV shows have used dance and electronic music to help sell consumer brands and move plot lines forward.

Let the Music Play
Nightclubs have new audio/visual technologies for increasingly titillating experiences. New markets- Las Vegas, South America- are blossoming. Every town still has its superclubs, but smaller, DJ-driven lounges are newly prominent. And while big DJs still draw, booking emphasis has shifted from household names to genre specialists, to fit high-concept venues. What does that mean for you and your clients?

Steve Goodgold, Booking Agent, Chaotica
Rob Keith, DJ/Artist, 3 Speaker High

The Safety Dance
Time was that only a handful of select DJs would get a highly coveted test pressing of a hot new record. But in our brave new digital world, promos are more easily circulated, exclusivity is near-dead, and pre-release music can easily go from promo tool to sales-damaging leak. We'll discuss this new model of promo distribution, the effectiveness of technologies that claim to increase the security of pre-release music, and how they've altered the role of the DJ.
Moderator:Kerri Mason, Beat Box Writer, Billboard

Villo Galvan, Director, Balance Record Pool
