  • This weekend, trailblazing UK producer James Blake addressed this, too: “If we want quality music somebody is gonna have to pay for it. Streaming services don’t pay properly, labels want a bigger cut than ever and just sit and wait for you to go viral, TikTok doesn’t pay properly, and touring is getting prohibitively expensive for most artists. The brainwashing worked and now people think music is free.”
    “And by the way,” Blake continued, “since it’s cheaper to produce fast, synthetic music to drop on streaming every week to capitalize on the strengths of the model, watch how the model is preparing you for AI-generated music that pays musicians nothing at all.” #MusicIndustry #MusicBusiness #Spotify #majorlabels

    The innovative Vision Pro app, created especially for the recently launched augmented reality headset, gives you a 3D DAW that you can operate with hand gestures, removing the need for a mouse or keyboard.
    In RipX DAW, distance plays a crucial role in creating an immersive music-making experience. Instruments are presented in a fully editable note format – no waveforms –, distinguished by their spatial placement, allowing users to interact with different elements based on their distance. According to Hit’n’Mix, you can walk around and interact with the melody while it plays through you, just like it’s really there.

    Martin DAW, Hit’n’Mix CEO and the creator of RipX DAW, says in a press release: “One of our aims in recent years has been to not only create an AI DAW that simplifies and de-clutters the music-making experience but to also innovate within the fledgling virtual music-making space.
    “So, whilst we are delighted that RipX DAW is gaining recognition as the best and only AI DAW of its kind, we are excited to announce that soon, with Apple Vision Pro, RipX DAW will also offer a completely new, interactive, compositional experience, giving users much more freedom to view and create music in their chosen surroundings – all utilising our unique, note-based Rip audio format.”

    The DAW will also offer integrated MIDI and audio functionality, advanced stem/instrument separation capabilities, direct customisation from AI Music Generators, and intuitive note-based editing with color-coded visuals.
    You can also import background images to enhance the creative environment of the DAW, making it a more immersive, exciting music-making experience.
    RipX DAW for Vision Pro has no confirmed launch date yet. Find out more at Hit’n’Mix.

    Three years on from her debut singles, Just For Me and Pain, Billboard are honouring PinkPantheress’s self-made magic, crowning her as their Producer Of The Year. The 22-year-old star is Billboard’s second-ever Producer Of The Year, following on from the first winner in 2023, Rosalía.

    While she hasn’t allowed many peeks behind the curtain, she has previously shared snippets of her GarageBand work in collaboration with Apple.

    Aged only 22, PinkPantheress has previously been named Best Female Act at the MOBOs, as well as the BBC’s Sound of 2022.
    Speaking to the BBC in 2022, PinkPantheress explained why her DIY, self-produced approach allows her to flourish. “I sing more confidently when I know no-one can really hear me, “ she said. “There’s something about it being really late and dark and relaxing and silent that’s more inspiring than a busy, sunny day. Especially for my music.”
    Billboard’s Editorial Director Hannah Karp says she is “thrilled to honour PinkPantheress as one of the most exciting young producers on the rise”.
    “Women are still seriously under-represented among the producers making today’s top hits, so we’re grateful to our partners at Bose for helping spotlight talented artists like PinkPantheress who are producing and inspiring a new generation of women to get behind the boards, in addition to wowing fans their fans as performers on stage,” she comments.
    The Billboard 2024 Producer of the Year Award will be presented at the Billboard Women in Music Awards on 6th March.
    Tickets to attend currently range between $95-$285, and fans can watch the show on 7 March at 5pm PT/8pm ET at Billboard Women in Music.
