The past ten years have seen the marketplace for music change dramatically. The growth of digital downloads has altered the way people buy music, with internet piracy sending major labels into a downward spiral. However the internet has also caused a growth in DIY labels. Tiny independent imprints have emerged, capable of harnessing the web's power with their forward thinking approach. At a recent conference, Jarvis Cocker backed these new labels to survive the current economic storm. Speaking at the Association Of Independent Label Music the 6Music presenter claimed that small labels are more able to react to a changing marketplace. "We have got people talking about what they value in music," he said. "The more established major radio stations and labels are flailing around, and let them. Indies are more nimble and in much better position to react." Continuing, Jarvis Cocker argued that the only reason bands would ever want to sign to major labels is due to offering massive amounts of money. "It was rather nice actually," he said. "But they haven't got any money left." Meanwhile, the singer claimed that the fate of 6Music was not a foregone conclusion. "Maybe they will try to stall in some way and they have already had such an overwhelming reaction that it gives a clear message" he said. "It's a slightly dirty trick – hoping people will forget." The conference saw major players in independent music gather to talk about the current market place. Simon Raymonde co-founded Bella Union, which recently enjoyed massive success with Fleet Foxes. "Fleet Foxes could have signed with anyone, but they wanted to sign with us not because of the money – we couldn't begin to compete – but because they love having a small team and we accept how they want to be portrayed." 下次再聊罗! 大家记得多发表喔! --
