#BrokenRecord and the REAL problem with streaming!
Where is MY hit single?
06/29/22 • 30 min
Almost 18 months into making this documentary podcast series, music producer Luke Jones was approached by a journalist, who wanted a comment from a music industry professional for an article.
Secretly overjoyed that FINALLY people were considering him a valuable industry commentator, he was quickly dissappointed to learn, that the article was yet another piece about the poor financial returns artists receive from streaming platforms.
So what is ACTUALLY going on with this issue?
Are artists and musicians being completely ripped-off, or is the issue a bit more complicated than it first appears?
Luke investigates!

Diamonds, jet skis and the illusion of wealth in music
Where is MY hit single?
11/01/21 • 20 min
Music videos are great! You get to see your favourite artists racing around in gold Lamborghinis, writhing around on the floor in fur coats and throwing fist fulls of dollars in the faces of bikini-clad models.
Bemused by the endless displays of ostentatious wealth depicted in the majority of music videos, music producer Luke Jones takes a wry look at the ongoing issue of music and money.
When a record label signs an artist, exactly how much money does that artist get, and what do they have to do in return for the advance money?
Can an act get rich of just one hit single? Producer Luke is on a mission to find out more!
Here are some links to things that Luke recommends, including the awesome cover of "Word Up" by the rock band GUN.

Christmas hits, the gift that keeps on giving!
Where is MY hit single?
12/01/21 • 20 min
If there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that Christmas songs are brilliant! And they can also be extremely lucrative.
Pen a half decent crimbo song and it will keep you in egg nog and gingerbread for the rest of your days!
....or will it?
Once again, music producer Luke Jones puts on his investigative journalist hat and delves into the music industry, thirsty for answers. Featuring traumatic flash backs to DJing at office Christmas parties, nonsensical conversions with a Shady Music industry insider and a semi-scientific dissection of festive songs, this episode tries to get to the bottom of the "Christmas Hit single" phenomenon.

08/06/21 • 16 min
In the music business, there's a well known hack that you can use, if you want to increase your chances of having a hit single.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, just borrow someone else's and release a version of an already popular song.

What makes a piece of music 'authentic'? What does that even mean? Why is authenticity in music important to the listener? How does this issue affect the actions and decisions of record labels?
