Today, they still headline triple-headers at famous venues such as Madison Square Garden and The Hollywood Bowl.
Is Spotify’s HiFi lossless streaming actually coming? Leaked code says yes

1 week ago | musictech.com | Crystal Koe

More than four years after first announcing its plans for lossless audio streaming, Spotify’s long-delayed HiFi tier appears to be back in development. Newly discovered code in the app’s backend suggests the company is preparing to launch a higher-quality streaming option, potentially as an add-on to its existing Premium service.

Spooked by the Trump administration’s ‘war on wokeness’, many leading companies are deleting policies aimed at creating a fairer workplace. So, should we in the music industry be worried about similar rollbacks?

1 week ago | musictech.com | Sam Roche

When listening to Ghost’s new album Skeletá, the word ‘pristine’ comes to mind regarding the quality of its production. Its silky sweet vocal harmonies (Cenotaph, Guiding Lights) and top tier guitar tones throughout are matched only by its deeply satisfying and punchy low end, and in an interview in the new issue of Sound on Sound, mix engineer Dan Malsch dives deep into how it was achieved.
