Episode 552 – A Look Back At The Major Stories In Music And Audio In 2024

The Year's Major Music Stories with Bobby O

In this week’s podcast episode,  I sit down with… myself.

Yes, today, I go solo for this special episode of the podcast.

In it, I’ll be reflecting on the major stories that shaped the music industry in 2024. 

In this special year-in-review episode, I’ll be going over TikTok’s potential ban in the US—an event which will completely change the industry going forward, Japan’s unexpected cassette tape resurgence, and Chechnya’s surprising tempo regulations.

I’ll also be discussing how Spotify is adapting its royalty models, Live Nation’s issues with the US government, the sad death of some iconic music institutions, immersive audio’s struggle to gain traction, and so much more.

Whether you’re a producer, artist, or industry insider, this episode is a must-listen if you want a detailed look at where the music world stands and where it’s going.
