Change of scenery, the year 2019: a living room, the stream on the PC: an old Ashbury album, free of charge. At the side of the screen, the streaming platform is recommending similar artists. This recommendation is based on an algorithm that analyses musical tastes. The streaming platform is suggesting Fleetwood Mac, the cover artwork is awful but users still listen to it and love the songs. The streaming platform is also showing tour dates. A month later, their concerts are sold out, despite being a band which many have already passed its zenith. Our music consumption has changed. The way of publishing music has changed. How do artists deal with this?
