Michael Brandvold Marketing - Music Marketing » Dropping The Needle show

Summary: "If Beavis & Butt-Head had a music podcast, this would be it." Co-host Mitch Lafon is recovering from some recent surgery so I thought it would be a great time to revisit a earlier episode of Dropping The Needle. Lets go back to episode 4 originally posted on May 7, 2012. This episode we discuss the experience of listening to music, how it has changed and the fidelity of music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODWkth6_Wa4 Dropping The Needle is the podcast where all music from all genres is discussed. New releases, classic albums, rediscovered music, signed and unsigned. No ass kissing, just two guys talking about music.
