The Beat Goes On

Two thirds of people listen to music every day.

Music is the most powerful form of entertainment and affects everyone on the planet. Technology has always disrupted the ways we create, commercialise, and enjoy music. We are now experiencing a historical shift in the relationship between music culture and commerce.

Businesses who didn’t think they had a stake in music are realising they do – for better or worse, we are all stakeholders in music culture through our collective behaviours, beliefs, customs, and values.

VML presents insights and perspectives on music culture and what it means for brand marketing.

You get a lot more benefit from just being able to identify who your real fans are. Not the fair-weather ones who sort of tell you the names of one or two songs and turn up to maybe half of your set at a festival after having a few drinks. I’m talking about the fans who will tell you who played the additional recorder on track seven on the album.
