Oh heeeya. Been away from Bluesky for a minute. Will try post more, it's nicer here. Last month I jumped on 'How To Become A...' podcast to talk about programming a stage at Glastonbury Festival. Can't believe it's been 25 years in this. Have a listen: shows.acast.com/how-to-becom... #glasto

Yesterday we dropped a magical workshop inside Punchdrunk Enrichment with Yomi Sode exclusively for #BYOB Poetry crew in Wembley. Facilitation space is such an overlooked pillar of informal education, this spot was gorgeous #yomisode #poetry

Proud to finally share our big Youth Music report 'Industry Connect' on the state of Music Education. This is one of the most comprehensive pieces of research of recent years and offers a radical rethink. The feedback has been amazing. Have you read it yet? youthmusic.org.uk/youth-musics...

I'm looking forward to sharing our Youth Music 'Industry Connect' report when its released on 9 December - the result of a major nationwide consultation about all of this...

Dan Tsu @offyellow.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

We need change, and we need it urgently.

Dan Tsu @offyellow.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Meanwhile the music education sector has been squeezed for over a decade, and many are on their knees (if they're still alive)

Dan Tsu @offyellow.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Music labels make approx 63% of that $45.5 billion. Only the biggest artists are benefitting from arena-level money And yet... 192 festivals disappeared since 2019 16% of live music venues have closed in the past year (Live Music Mapping Project)

Dan Tsu @offyellow.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Music industry is booming. So why are the grassroots, and music education still struggling?

Dan Tsu @offyellow.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

The music boom is real The global value of music copyright (inc sales, licensing and streaming) was $45.5 billion last year. That's $20B more than 10 years ago, and $12B more than cinema box office revenue... Source: @tortoisemedia.bsky.social pivotaleconomics.com/undercurrent...

Music smashes box office records: Global Value of Music Copyright soars to $45.5bn, now worth more than cinema — Pivotal Economics

Whether you're investing, operating or earning from music copyright, you ought to know how much it's all worth — and how each piece of the puzzle is trending.

Nice to see Maverick Sabre in the #RoyalAlbertHall archive, talking about 14 years ago and many artists coming thru together. On one night alone Lyrix Organix had Ed Sheeran, Maverick Sabre and Doc Brown on one line up in a pub in Kensal Green (will post that video below) youtu.be/hbDx-XKaZ84?...

“we don't live an industrial age anymore, and yet the education system is built on it. It's nonsense... Knowledge is no longer valuable, it's practice that is needed”” (Denise Stanley, CLOCK) This panel hosted by my guy Wizdom (Sound Connections) is on point

Honoured to deliver keynote talk at MIME Conference (Music Industry & Music Education) this morning in Manchester. We shared provocation, findings and ideas from our big Youth Music report 'Industry' Now kicking back to enjoy a full day of invigorating talks and insights

Been pinballing London today like a frozen, um, pinball. Tonight it's our first in a series of workshops in Wembley Park as part of a major new public artwork commission for Lyrix Organix with local youth poets I'd be bouncing with excitement if my pins weren't frozen

A brilliant read for 90s RnB nerds. It evokes memories of spending my pocket money on US import CDs, in shrink wrapped tray sleeves. This album still bangs.

So who got their Glastonbury tickets then? Starting to getting my head into planning 2025's adventures at Rum Shack. 🤯

Doctors Without Borders teams in #Sudan are treating war-wounded patients with catastrophic injuries and providing humanitarian aid and medical care. More than 11 million have been displaced by the current conflict, including over 3 million who have fled to countries like Chad & South Sudan.

Oh hey Bluesky. I've landed, at last. This is me giving my Blue Steel to tell you I'm dropping a keynote talk in Manchester this Saturday. This year I co-led a Youth Music report abt creative careers, music education & the 'industry'. We spoke to 280 ppl, it was inspiring, revealing & urgent
