PLP 083: Chris Robley on Poetry, Music, and Marketing

Today’s guest is Chris Robley: a singer-songwriter and award-winning poet who also happens to be one of the creative genius behind the marketing team at CD Baby.  For more than a decade he’s edited the DIY Musician Blog and been the co-host of the DIY Musician Podcast, both of which are terrific resources I strongly encourage you to check out.  

PLP 071: Aaron Green on Covers, Remixes, and Mechanical Licensing

Aaron Green is the Vice President and director of sales and business development at EasySongLicensing.com. Aaron has spent the last 16 years helping artists clear tracks so they can legally distribute cover songs as well as leading a team that handles custom licensing agreements. Easy Song Licensing has helped over 60,000 customers – myself included. In the last 60 days I used them to clear two different covers, my Techno Syndrome cover (from Mortal Kombat) as well a Simon & Garfunkel Scarborough Fair cover. I had a great experience with them both times, so I invited Aaron onto the podcast to talk about covers, remixes, mechanical licensing, derivative works, sampling, public domain and NOIs.
