The economic recession which has, according to the latest data, been ongoing for at least the last year, has caused many consumers to cut back on spending. The United States, one of the strongest consumer markets for entertainment products, has been hit particularly hard by the recession.While new music continues to be marketed to the masses, the cutbacks in consumer activity are certain to have an effect on the way consumers choose to spend their dollars and whether music will be as viable a product as it has traditionally been.

From 2004 to 2007, online music sales went from a non-factor in overall sales to an impressive 30 percent of all music sales in the US. The potential for online music sales to be a force is certainly there, but the music industry remains stifled by some stiff competition that always offers its products at the best price: free.

Music piracy via online music sharing sites and software has long been blamed by the industry as the cause for the majority of their woes with little regard to what the infiltration of those services may tell the industry about their products.

New music is oftentimes very hard for consumers to come by. For many years, the music industry has followed a model of cloning the latest trends and releasing recordings of their very prepackaged artists in vast waves of sameness that seem to no longer entice consumers. Online music, as it sometimes does not go through the filtering and packaging process of major labels, tends to be riskier, more niche and more geared toward the individuals who enjoy the genre in question.

The proliferation of online music also begs the question of whether the slick packaging relied upon by record companies to sell their products is really worth it to consumers. After all, online music is downloaded bare-bones, with no cover, inserts or artwork.

Legal music sharing, as it has evolved, has become enough of a competitive service that it seems record labels, when they embrace the new technology rather than compulsively suing, have something to gain. Consumers who download pirated music always face the risk of viruses and other malicious software being downloaded with the music. Digital music sales from legitimate sources are generally not only easier for consumers to use, but carry with them the assurance of being from a source who has an interest in keeping their customer base.

Heavy-handed tactics such as intimidation, electronic anti-piracy devices and so forth seem to have done little. By 2007, when legitimate sales had become to be a measurable part of digital music sales, the companies had reached out to their consumers, offering products that were affordable, easy to use and packaged in such a way that the consumer did not have to feel as if they were purchasing marketing materials as opposed to music.

The recession is likely to hit all parts of the market. Music, as it is easily distributed online, can be compressed to formats that allow fast downloads while maintaining a high quality and, like everything in the world, now moves and changes much faster than it did in the past, is poised to be one of the products consumers can afford without violating their restricted budgets.

Moving from no measurable sales figures to 30 percent of market share in 3 years would be impressive for any product. For an entertainment product such as music in a time of economic recession, it shows that online music may now, more than ever, be the future of music entertainment.

Thanks for reading, I hope the article was informative and has helped you understand the potential effects that recession can have on music sales as well as how strong both the music industry and music lovers are when times get tough.

Where new music radio stations are concerned, those programs that actually feature local music generally only occupy a short amount of time during the broadcast day—or week—and are not as heavily advertised as those programs which feature the most popular recording artists.

For musicians operating in a local scene, the potential for getting any help from radio is fairly sparse. Radio has become more and more dominated by fewer and fewer broadcasters and radio music has become more homogenized over the years. UK music talent, which once could rely on programs that featured the latest bands from throughout the isles, now have to compete with international acts who come with all the slick production and marketing that multi-national record labels can afford. Because of the expense of broadcasting, many of the best new music radio stations are to be found on the Internet. Of course, this sort of broadcasting carries with it an increased risk of piracy but the tradeoff might be worth it for some bands.

New music always suffers for having to develop an audience before it is taken seriously by record companies. The companies aren’t being evil or scurrilous, they’re simply trying to sell a product and only have a certain amount of capital to invest. Like any investor, they’d prefer that capital were put toward a venture that will generate revenue for them. New music is always a risk, in that regard. A band may become the next Beatles or the next nobody and there is really no way of knowing.

Radio music has essentially been transformed into a means to advertise music that is already selling well. Those artists that dominate the airwaves generally suffer no lack of publicity and are certainly not restricted to notoriety in only a local music scene. This makes it more difficult for local bands to break into the mainstream, especially if they’re playing a particularly innovative form of music that hasn’t yet garnered a large following.

Radio stations, as the world moves more toward digital formats, are likely to become less important to the world of music than they have been in the past. As they’re converted to be essentially Advertising“  mediums, whether the advertisements be purchased by sponsors or are in the form of songs by major label’s current big sellers, their service to new music and to UK music talent is not likely to increase, barring major shifts in the market.

UK music talent would do well to look for other means of gaining popularity and, if they desire to break into those new music radio venues, they would do well to already have a following before they try. Radio is a medium that tends to increase sales once there are sales to increase, but not one which is particularly good for starting from zero.

Local music can sometimes encompass the same genre as interpreted by several different local scenes resulting in different fan bases. UK music, for example, is famous for bringing Punk to the world. Even within the local music scenes in which Punk developed, there are several regional differences that remain significant today; over 30 years after Punk first became a worldwide phenomenon. Punk bands are oftentimes defined by the local music scene in which they developed. Irish punk is a much different animal than that which originates from the London scene, for example, and is most certainly different from the Punk that originates in US scenes such as New York and Los Angeles. Each of these markets, while producing new music that fits under the broad genre label of Punk, produces unique incarnations of the music that appeals to different fans. Each group of fans, of course, is a new market, hungry for more of the sound that originated from the specific local music scene in question.

Local music also coincides with a current trend among consumers: The rejection of things which are viewed to be overly-packaged and sterile. Especially where music is concerned, the 1980′s are over and slick packaging is definitely not hip. Even music videos, once regarded as the future of music distribution, are seldom worth the airtime of television stations that were once music-only formats. Consumers are looking for something new, something fresh and something that doesn’t rely on appealing to the least-common denominator to increase sales. Local music, with its penchant for experimentation and its ability to generate a new sound as a particular scene of musicians move from one band to another defining and redefining the local sound, is a good place to look for something new.

UK music has always stood out as in innovative force in the music world and there is no reason that its local markets should not be explored for new music. With a consumer base hungry for something different, the market for new music is probably possessed of more potential than it has been in many years. Local music, whether it be UK music, US music or world music, could provide much of what record companies are seeking.

The Broadway show Gypsy has stars that have bagged multiple awards. Patti Lupone (as Mama Rose), Boyd Gaines (as Herbie), and Laura Benanti (as Louise) are the talented artists that have added to the charm of this musical story.

“You’ll Never Get Away From Me”

“Together Wherever We Go”

“Let Me Entertain You”

“Everything’s Coming Up Roses”

“Small World”

Here’s a little secret that very few people know about. In 1959, when the Broadway show Gypsy was on a tryout tour, several songs were removed from the musical. This included the song “Nice, She Ain’t” for the character Herbie. The reason for the removal of song was that Jack Klugman was a terrible singer!

Besides this, another song “Mama’s Talkin’ Soft” for the characters Baby June and Baby Louise was cut from the musical. The reason for this was a bit amusing – the small girls, including the child actress playing the role of Baby Louise, had to stand on an elevated platform on the stage; and the girls were terrified to do so! However, the song “Mama’s Talkin’ Soft” was recorded later by Petula Clark. It was released in 1959 in UK as a single.

Want to know more secrets about the Broadway show Gypsy ? Well, you might come across as you take the front row seats of the theatre! But for that, you need to act fast and book your tickets. And what better way than to call a number or log online and order your tickets to be delivered at home?

Yes, it’s true; waiting at the box office with a look of a die hard, fanatical theatre fan is a unique experience. And when you get the tickets after much struggle, how you climb on cloud nine! However, how does it feel when you’re left empty-handed and you have to watch other lucky fellows with envy!

You can always hear the story of “Gypsy” from your friends. However, the real excitement is in going to the theatre and watching the whole show right till the end. To experience the charisma exuded by each character, you need to be there, where the action is happening!

Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant starred in Roger Mitchell’s 1999 hit movie, Notting Hill, which captured a variety of intimate locales in the west London area. The movie’s popularity has caused many enthusiasts to visit the Notting Hill area in search of specific film locations such as the renowned street market on Portobello road, where local vendors offer fresh fruit and eclectic antiques.

The infamous pastel blue door belonging to Thacker’s flat in the movie has since been removed. Visitors can still find the location at 280 Westbourne Park Road but the blue door has been replaced by a standard black one and is now the entrance to a multimillion-dollar flat.

Trim and Bective Abbey – Ireland

Mel Gibson’s epic film Braveheart, detailing the exploits of William Wallace against English rule, used a variety of locations high up in the picturesque Scottish Highlands, but many of the scenes containing ancient towns and structures were filmed in Trim and Bective Abbey in Ireland.

Located about 26 miles northwest of Dublin, Trim is home to Trim Castle, which served as the English town of York in the film. The locale is now a massive remnant of an ancient castle but for the film, wooden extensions and structures were built to create the town of York and the London Square. Trim is located 5 miles away from Bective Abbey, which was used as background for Longshanks’ castle and the William Wallace torture scenes.

Glencoe, Highlands – Scotland

Glencoe offers a brilliant depiction of the Scottish highlands and has been used in a multitude of films including Braveheart, Highlander, Rob Roy and most recently, the Harry Potter series. Glencoe can be reached via the A82 road connecting Glasgow to Fort William. The famous Clachaig Inn provides visitors with a lodging base camp surrounded by locations used for Harry Potter props and settings such as Hagrid’s Hut and The Bridge to Nowhere. The nearby highland scenery was regularly used as the landscape backdrop for Hogwarts.

Torquay, Devon – England

The surrounding areas of Torquay, Devon have become a popular location for period films requiring highly specific locales. The formidable looking Compton Castle located 5 miles west of Torquay was the location for Combe Magna – the large estate owned by the character John Willoughby in Ang Lee’s rendition of Sense and Sensibility. Those with keen eyes will also recognize the estate as the home of character Lord Bullingdon from Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon.

Less than 5 miles away is another Sense and Sensibility location, the St. Mary’s Church in Berry Pomeroy, Devon. The county is also home to the Saltram House, which is a 30-minute drive from Devon’s west side coastal city, Plymouth. The large estate doubled as Norland Park and was featured in the beginning of the film when Mrs. Dashwood and her children were forced to leave their estate after the death of Mr. Dashwood.

Newcastle – England

Durham’s Newcastle city became the seedy backdrop for the original Get Carter movie of 1971. The film features the fictitious pub Vic and Comet. Michael Caine’s character, Jack Carter, made regular visits to the pub. The actual film location is no longer a pub, but the pub scenes were most likely filmed at the nearest pub O’Neil’s, which is easily spotted thanks to its light blue exterior decoration.

The film also features regular scenes set at 25 Coburg Street, the boarding house where Jack Carter stayed throughout the film. Though the area is much more affluent looking than the grimy film depiction, it is the same location where Jack Carter exits the house armed with a shotgun and spooks two rival hit men. The large Gateshead car park south of the Tyne River is the location where Jack Carter eventually pushes gangster Cliff Brumby off the top level.

Ireland and the UK are home to plenty of other locations from films such as Mission: Impossible, Robin Hood, The Italian Job and countless others. However, movie buffs will have plenty of sightseeing to do just in these top 5 Cities in Ireland and UK for movie history.
