Is the future of music through the mobile phone? I'm still not sure one way or the other, to be honest, but if it is, then independent labels should probably put the next AIM Big Wednesday event in their diaries because it will be looking at all things mobile music. There will be a networking session giving indie label types the chance to chat to representatives from the mobile industry, while a panel session will look at how independent music can work in a mobile music space so far pretty biased towards more mainstream major label owned music.
Speakers will include New Media writer Douglas Rushkoff, IMPALA and Pias chief Michel Lambot, Beggars Digital man Simon Wheeler, Nokia's Music & Audio Industry Director David Williams, mobile-focused cultural body MuLiMob's Hélène Abrand and Brazilian DJ Cibelle.
It all takes place on 30 Nov at 6.30pm at Kettners Champagne Bar in Soho. Free entry for AIM members and friends. Places are limited so interested parties should RSVP asap to [email protected].
