ANOTHER DIMENSION OF IDENTIFYING & TRACKING

Whether it’s music stems, music in short-form videos, NFTs or anything Web3, the need for identifying and tracking the use of music has reached a new level. Maybe even another dimension. What can or should be some of the best ways to follow the music here?

AND NOW… THE METAVERSE

A dystopian future so promising that a company with nearly 3 billion users actually changed its name to Meta. A future so inspiring that reportedly more than 500 companies are focused directly on the metaverse, and practically every major tech company, brand, influencer, and gaming company is getting involved in the interconnected virtual worlds. But what is it?

Kickers:
Scott Sellwood: Director, Music Business Development & Partnerships, Meta Platforms

CONTROLLING CONTENT

Fraudulent streams or streaming fraud. Quality control. Music integrity. Ineligible content. Whatever you call the music that should not be available on a streaming platform, detecting and removing that music is even more challenging on social media and short-form video platforms. There must be better ways, right?

Kickers:
Dan Simpson: Head of Label Operations, Meta Platforms
