For more context: In his book "Tools of Titans," Tim Ferriss asks Derek Sivers (creator of CD Baby) to share something he believes that others might think is crazy. Here's his response: I believe that music and people don’t mix; that music should be appreciated alone without seeing or knowing who the musicians are and without other people around. Just listening to music for its own sake, not listening to the people around you and not filtered through what you know about the musician’s personal life.

Fully agree, unfortunately as with nearly all things in modern times. Losing chronological feeds & algorithms removed direct access to fanbases built over years while encouraging constant engagement & punishing links in world where, radio,print media fades away. This made being mysterious work against artists. Streaming / content creation added a parasocial factor access. Places like Twitter made having an artist account that only shares the music impossible, the blend between artist & human was/is forced. It’s encouraged. It’s sucks haha Thankfully I’ve always been able to separate music from human, I learned this very early in the 90’s opening up for legends, my heroes who shattered all illusions and were a 180 from their art

Future of Radio
@michael-smith
Derek's vision, in a way, is the future of new music at the root level.
