ONLINE MUSIC STREAMING - SOUNDCLOUD

Posted by: Søren

Are mix CD's going to die? The thought struck me today, when I was browsing the online music website SoundCloud (SoundCloud is an online audio platform catering to the music professionals enabling them to collaborate, promote & distribute their music online). As with everything else on the internet, music has for a long period also been free (YouTube + tons of other streaming services) - If you are satisfied with online streaming and not actually downloading the music to your harddisc.

The phenomenon "City branding" or experience economy has been "the talk of town" in the world of branding for a long period. Small danish islands like Læsø, Anholt and Samsø has for the last decade experienced a great interest because the islands have been branded in a very "storytelling way". The same is happening with cities in Denmark. Every little city or town are trying to stand out in a attractive way (More tourist - more money).

One of the fundamental - and most exciting courses I have been studying throughout my master at Copenhagen Business School is Consumer Behavior. Responsible for the course was Marketing Professor Torben Hansen ( He recently wrote a chapter in Philip Kotlers well known Marketing Management book and won a prize for his research) - super competent scientist within the field of Consumer Behavior and marketing.

In spring 2006 I visited the capital of fashion - Paris with my brother. My bro is quite a fashion and innovation sucker. Due to this fact we visited the very cool and fashionable fashion/concept store Colette on 213 Rue Saint - Honoré. Colette is a worldwide known fashion store. They sell everything cool, and try to push the boundaries for concept stores. I guess they are pretty innovative and successful.

The other day I browsed their website and realized the got a new one. And what a website. The new Colette website is super functional with a lot of great features (no flash anymore which I find very cool) On top of that I think the website/Colette crew have a nice taste in music. A lot of electronic stuff which remind me about our visit in the store in 2006.

Back then my brother tried to record a small video in the store, but after a few moments a guard told him to stop. I found the video in my iTunes library today and thought I would share it with you. Go check Colette's website here and check the video below

In summer 2008 I read a rather commercial book about the founder of Apple; Steve Jobs. The bio is named The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business. I found the book pretty entertaining and realized how great/crazy a businessman/marketing man Steve Jobs is.
