The music industry consists of companies and individuals that create and sell music, including musicians, music publishers, producers, record labels, and retail stores. The industry is dominated by four major record companies - Universal Music Group, Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group, and EMI Group. These conglomerates own many record labels and music publishing rights. Sources of competition include piracy of CDs and MP3s, as well as new forms of entertainment. To promote artists amid losses from piracy and downloads, the industry focuses on merchandise, social media, vinyl records, and concerts/festivals. Record deals typically involve 5 album contracts paying artists 7-15% royalties after costs are recouped.
Music videos originated in the early 20th century and became an important medium in the 1980s with the launch of MTV, which based its format around music videos. Before MTV, music videos were shown on television shows and used primarily to promote songs and artists. In the 1990s, music videos reached their peak cultural significance due to high production value videos from major artists. Today, music videos are most commonly viewed on websites like YouTube, where views number in the billions each month.
The sound recording industry has evolved from Thomas Edison's phonograph in the 1870s to today's digital music market, with major developments including the impact of radio in the 1920s, the rise of the record industry in the post-WWII era, and more recently the transition to digital formats and services. The industry is dominated by a handful of large companies and follows a standard model with departments for talent acquisition, production, distribution, promotion and other functions. New business models have also emerged like licensing music for use in other media and 360 deals that provide a percentage of artists' total revenue.
The Big Four record companies - Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group, and EMI Group - collectively control around 70% of the global recorded music industry. They engage in "vertical integration", handling the production, distribution, and consumption of music themselves. This gives them significant power and influence over how music is made and distributed. Each owns a network of smaller record labels that serve different music markets and genres.
The Music Industry, Technology and Synergy hughes82
The music industry has evolved alongside developments in other media technologies over the past century. Early record companies in the 1900s helped popularize recorded music on new formats like vinyl. In the 1920s, the growth of radio boosted the music industry and saw consolidation as companies entered related fields. By the 1950s-60s, television, films, and new portable formats contributed to the industry's expansion and popularization of new musical styles globally. The development of digital formats, the internet, and music video channels in the 1980s-90s transformed the industry yet again.
The document provides a history of music videos from 1894 to the present day. It begins with early "illustrated songs" in 1894 using magic lanterns and slides, and discusses the development of synchronized sound and image with phonoscenes in 1902. In the 1960s, music videos emerged to promote pop bands, and MTV launched in 1981 which popularized the music video globally. Modern music videos may tell complete stories like short films.
The document discusses music videos, their purpose, and how they have evolved. It explains that originally, music videos were mainly a promotional tool used by the music industry to market artists and songs to audiences. However, as audiences now consume music videos online through sites like YouTube, fans have more control over discovering and sharing artists, while artists have more creative freedom without relying solely on industry support. The relationship between artists, audiences, and the industry is now more complex and multi-directional than the traditional top-down model of the past.
The history of music videos began in the 1930s with short film musical shorts. In the 1960s, bands began creating music videos when they could not perform live. The launch of Top of the Pops in 1964 increased demand for music videos. In the 1980s, MTV was launched as a dedicated music video channel, greatly expanding the audience for videos. Modern technology has allowed music videos to explore new themes and visual effects, while YouTube has enabled easy access and stronger connections between artists and fans.
MTV launched in 1981 and played the first music video "Video Killed the Radio Star", marking the beginning of the music video era. Initially promoting rock and classical genres, MTV helped break racial barriers in 1983 when they played Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" video. Jackson's "Thriller" video, which cost $500,000, further helped establish African American artists. Innovations like inexpensive video equipment in the 1990s allowed artists to produce promotional videos more easily. By the mid-2000s, MTV shifted focus from music videos to reality TV shows, while the rise of YouTube in 2005 made online music video viewing more popular.
The history of music videos began in 1894 with the "illustrated song" which projected still images to accompany live music performances. In the early 1900s, the phonoscene synchronized recorded sound with film. Talkies and short musical films called "soundies" emerged in the 1920s. In the 1960s, bands like The Animals and Beatles began creating higher quality promotional videos. MTV launched in 1981 and helped popularize the music video globally. Presently, videos may tell complete stories and conventions vary by genre.

Music videos have existed since the 1920s when songs were first accompanied by moving images, but they became more popular promotional tools in the 1980s. As technology advanced, artists were able to create more sophisticated videos to promote their music on TV shows and increase their popularity. The emergence of MTV in 1981 launched the golden age of music videos by providing a dedicated outlet for broadcasting them.
Classic rock evolved from swing music and jazz in the late 1960s, led by artists like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Jimi Hendrix. Generally, classic rock includes rock songs from the 1960s-1980s. Some key characteristics of classic rock include older rock songs that are still popular on the radio today and generate crowds at concerts. Major classic rock albums include The Beatles' Revolver and The Rolling Stones' Sticky Fingers. While classic rock declined in popularity due to newer genres like punk and new wave in the late 1970s-early 1980s, it still maintains a fanbase through documentaries, radio stations, and websites focused on the genre.
