But now. I focus on quality and that takes a lot more time. Only a handful of other artists have achieved similar favors like x. With old town road. Brown with a get up so there are. They all went viral on tick talk and became stars. I really would have liked to talk to someone at a big music label like warner or sony because surely they must be looking at to talk to increase their Digital Sales no one buy c.

The Music Industry 1st started making money from streaming in 2005 and profits continue to grow 10 years later turnover had reached 2600000000 euros by 2018 it was almost as much as all other music formats put together. Digitalisation isnt something that you would cheat once and for all and then say so thats done weve gone digital its an ongoing process we live in a world where people are now thinking about how to link Virtual Reality and. Music or expand the possibilities of music listening there are still many avenues to explore. For the moment the latest digital craze take to start with.

Talks owner is testing its streaming service in india and indonesia in 6 days it had more than 100000. 00 downloads but doesnt want to produce his music specifically for digital platforms. Of course you can create songs made for tick talk with a short and snappy intro or heart. Beats but i think you can get any song across on tech talk of. I dont tailor my songs to words when i hear a beat i like i take it. Its that simple nowadays i wonder what. You would have done with a tool like talk but then again the music they composed was meant to be played in big concert halls designed to carry the sound all the way up to the gallery but one thing is still true today the right sound makes all the difference. A busy more with stalls in shop is and they make plenty of noise it is pretty loud in general and theres room. For help. So if its too loud too much sound as reflected for me it feels overwhelming. Durk noise listens for a living the physicist advices builders an architect on all things acoustic for example on how to lower noise levels.

Syria airport in switzerland is pretty noisy at least for the people who live nearby but inside all is calm and quiet acoustics were taken into account in the airports design the key concept is isolation there are several layers of glass built in here one after the other and taken together they provide a very high level of sound proofing inside you really arent subjected to any adverse of facts from the noise levels youd hear outside. But what about the more than 30000000 people who stream through the airport every year surely they make a lot of noise. The ceiling is clouded with sheets of metal and some of them are perforated those perforations allow the sound waves to be absorbed. In.

In airports the goal we shoot for is 70 percent when you measure here you see that the value actually exceeds that by a little bit to give. Serious airport is just one of noise projects hes also been involved in planning cutters National Museum as well as a stadium in brazil and a concept house in israel.

This i think that how a room is perceived has grown an overall importance in the last few years visual characteristics still have to be harmonious theres no question that still an architects primary business but air quality temperature and acoustics are also now key aspects of room design. This is especially true when music is involved. In the past ok stations had to calculate complex models that concert. But today computer programs can tell them what a performance will sound like from any seat in the audience before construction even begins. To millers tools will become a simulation programs that are used everywhere by acoustics experts nowadays have been around since the 1990 s. And they are certainly used by architects in planning large scale project but in many other cases for example in climbing restaurants the acoustic aspects are still largely unexplored acoustic.
