Bring back the Bootleg! How to Scale the Soul of Live Music - GeeksTap Tech Networking & Learning
GeeksTap with Pascal De Mul: Bring back the Bootleg! How to Scale the Soul of Live Music.
If music starts sounding like robots, don't be surprised when the robots take over.
As AI-generated music floods streaming platforms and algorithms optimize creativity into predictable patterns, a growing question is emerging: what becomes more valuable when content is infinite?
In this GeeksTap session, Pascal De Mul, Founder & CEO of Setmixer, explores the future of live music, artist ownership, music technology, and the growing importance of authentic human expression in an AI-driven world. From the hidden economics of live performance to the infrastructure powering the next generation of artists, this conversation challenges how we think about music, creativity, and value in the age of AI.
If you're interested in AI, creator economy, music technology, digital platforms, streaming, or the future of human creativity, this session is for you.
