A buddy of mine in London is involved in a venture with a few others where they're trying to come up with a model whereby musicians can actually make a living from their work (or, at the very least, see an increase in return). The lads doing this are music fans, but have also all been involved in various startup companies in London (having varying degrees of success). They're looking to combine the experience gained from working in startups with their love of music, to make this venture successful.
It's still early days and they're in the process of meeting industry people, knocking on doors, and identifying talent. Their website is at;
The Rattle Space
Whether it succeeds or not remains to be seen, but after cynically attempting to pick holes in his plan, he has me convinced that this could work (albeit some of the finer detail is, as of yet, vague or yet to be established).
As part of their requirements they are soliciting feedback from people just to gauge opinion on various things. I couldn't think of a better place to solicit such feedback, than here.
