CASE STUDY: Carmel Oaks Independent Senior Living THE SOLUTION: For many years Carmel Oaks relied on CD players to pipe tunes into the background throughout their facilities. As a result, staff members were tasked with the responsibility of frequently changing discs, which often took them away from attending to the needs of their residents. What they needed was an easy-to-use, automated background music solution that always provided a fresh variety of music, as well as seasonal tunes during the holidays. Additionally, management also wanted a music solution that was fully licensed for business use so that they wouldn’t have to pay licensing fees out of pocket or worry about facing costly penalties from performing rights organizations. THE SOLUTION: We suggested the perfect solution to make life easier for Christine and her staff – Core Music delivered via internet. Featuring 160+ professionally curated business music programs, Core has a huge selection of classic programs to choose from that are perfect for the 55+ crowd, from 60’s pop hits and jazz to orchestral tunes and soft rock. With Core Music, Christine was also able to choose programs from Mood’s vast holiday music library to keep residents in the spirit of the season. By choosing internet delivery through the ProFusion iS device, all programs are automatically scheduled to play and updated automatically on a regular basis. That means no more changing discs, and no more buying CDs. Christine and authorized staff can even log into the intuitive MyMood web-based portal to quickly change program scheduling, edit track preferences and much more.

I’m very happy to announce a Call for Proposals for a new short-form series of peer-reviewed books related to any aspect of music business or its intersections with technology or culture.

Industry experts Charles Goldstuck, Managing Partner, GoldState Music, and Michael Poster, Chair of Music Acquisitions & Financing and Partner, Michelman & Robinson, LLP, were joined by Grammy nominee, singer, songwriter, producer, and wellness advocate Mike Posner on Friday afternoon for “Bringing Creative Talent to Music Investments.” After conquering goals including writing hit songs, walking across the United States, and climbing Mount Everest, Posner decided he wanted to learn more about asset allocation. Posner met with Goldstuck, and the two developed a mutually beneficial relationship. Throughout the panel, the three discussed the intersection of creativity and strategy in music investments, with Posner providing creative insight to Goldstuck and his investment portfolio knowledge. Goldstuck believes a lasting business strategy emphasizes that long-term success relies on more than just financial returns, stating, “Mike is a very important part of how we think about things because we want his creative opinion on the repertoire and whether we want to buy a catalog or not.”   Posner has sold a portion of his catalog, and explained his journey from artist to investor, noting that his passion for music led him to seek meaningful partnerships. He highlighted the importance of working with high-integrity partners like Goldstuck, who care about music beyond its financial value. Posner commented, “artists are conduits in the divine like delicate flowers who you want to protect, so one cannot recommend someone without high integrity.” Goldstuck is also selective about his partners, as he believes investments go beyond monetary investments and create relationships between people. Goldstuck’s tip to anyone who seeks to invest in artists is to really commit to the business. Commitment forces one to prioritize partnerships and community. By merging Posner’s creativity with Charles’s strategies and experience, they have built a perfect harmony and ensure that the artists’ legacies are being honored and respected. Isis Alava & Joowon P.
