    Finns det ett outnyttjat tillfälle att exportera mer musik mellan de nordiska länderna? Nordiska artister och managements blickar traditionellt långt ut i världen när de planerar en artists karriär. De nordiska länderna är i sin tur mycket jämförbara och avståndet kort, så det är förvånande att den inre nordiska musikmarknaden inte är starkare. Vilka hinder finns och hur får vi det nordiska samarbetet att utvecklas är föremål för denna paneldiskussion.

    In a world where more and more artists want to keep their copyrights, there are new additions or versions of record labels popping up around the world. In Sweden, we see innovative companies like Jubel and Amuse that work with artists, without signing over the rights to the artist's music. This may be seen as the way forward, but how do they differ from a regular record label?

    This panel will be held in Swedish. Efter #Metoo känns den manliga rockstjärnemyten mer föråldrad än någonsin. Berättelsen om en dominant och sexuell erövrare, oavsett musikgenre, som kommer till stan för att få kvinnlig bekräftelse är tydligt i behov av en grundlig makeover. Att vara på topp borde inte innebära att du måste bete dig som en skitstövel. Men stereotyper dör långsamt. Hur kan musikindustrin vara till hjälp och kan hur kan vi män förändra vårt beteende? Möt artisterna som tröttnat på machonormen och musikbranschföreträdare som vill se en förändring i en diskussionspanel under Where’s the Music. En panel om män, med män, för alla.
