Tribe of Noise Gives Indie Musicians Revenue and Gaming and Video Creatives Licensing Options The music industry is complicated. Music Licensing is complicated. Getting quality music   within budget and within timeframe  into your indie game, video or movie is nearly impossible  (unless you know i.e. the Doobie Brothers). That is why there are tech events like SF Music Tech . Recently, we interviewed Hessel van Oorschot , Head Noisemaker and business conductor at Tribe of Noise . Tribe of Noise is a service that connects creatives who need music with independent musicians who create beautiful music. Tribe of Noise has been around since 2008 (that's 49 Years in startup dog years) - that's a long time.

The Nerd Stalker crew is live from SF MusicTech Summit 2014 here at SF Japantown's Hotel Kabuki. Wow, we have been supporting Brian Zisk (& Family) SF MusicTech Summit for some time and we are sad to hear this could be the last one. Listen to Brian's opening remarks and hear from him what he plans to do next.

We were excited to attend the 13th SF MusicTech Summit at Hotel Kabuki in the culture rich SF Japantown. One of our favorite sessions was Music and Health. Will Hensley , formerly of the band Londonbeat led a discussion on how each panelist is using music with health. View how Mickey Hart of the Grateful Dead "bridges rhythm, space and time" with the Rhythm and Brain Project .

  Pictures tell a thousand words. We were invited by Brian Zisk and SF Music Tech Summit to cover their event at Hotel Kabuki in Japantown and were not disappointed. We shot some great footage which we will release in a little bit featuring some startups and highlights from a Music and Health discussion featuring the great Mickey Hart from the Grateful Dead. To capture some of the nuance that has become SF MusicTech Summit, we wanted to collate the twitterverse pics to show you how exciting this event was. If you haven't been, this should convince you. See you at the next SFMusicTech Summit!
