What do people think of using location based technology to re-invent how music is distributed?
-
This is a follow-up to an article posted recently on The Next Web: http://thenextweb.com/apps/2011/03/26/the-first-musical-album-thats-also-a-location-aware-iphone-app/ Do you think there will be an opportunity to disrupt the music industry by having bands create albums/tracks that are unfolded to listeners based on location?

Answer:
Inception the App, which also features location based music ( as well as many other context aware capabilities ) is worth checking out too :) http://inceptiontheapp.com/

It can be a fun way to interact. The addition by the band in The Next Web's article is that they specifically composed the music to the location they attach the music to. This is different than just dropping tracks on random spots on a map, through whichever location based service. I like the fact that the music has a strong connection to the location where it has been dropped. With our startup/app http://Shoudio.com you can record and share audio on a specific geo-location. For example recordings from street musicians and such. Dropping music on locations is now also possible with the Soundtracking app by Schematics Labs.
