Love, Music & APIs

Mar 14, 2011 at 11:00 AM
In the old days it was DJs, A&R folks, labels and record store owners that were the gatekeepers to music. Today, we are seeing a new music gatekeeper emerge... the developer. Using open APIs, developers are creating new apps that change how people explore, discover, create and interact with music... http://schedule.sxsw.com/events/event_IAP5820

Nu bij 'Love Music & APIs': APIs are the sex organs of software. Data is the DNA, hackdays are orgies. #sxswnl #lovemusicapi

The big thing used to be mp3. Now it's API. More about combination or curation. Limiting factor is now creativity #lovemusicapi #sxtxstate

Love to hear a session on music that's not bemoaning the death of the industry, but rather celebrating its transformation. #lovemusicapi

While devs + their apis maybe the new gatekeepers, data from actual fans + their network effect are the real keys to the gates #lovemusicapi
