In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America, (RIAA) awards certification based on the number of albums and singles sold through retail and other ancillary markets. Other countries have similar awards (see music recording sales certification). Certification is not automatic; for an award to be made, the record label must request certification and pay a fee to have the sales of the recording audited. The audit is conducted against net shipments after returns (most often an artist's royalty statement is used), which includes albums sold directly to retailers and one-stops, direct-to-consumer sales (music clubs and mail order) and other outlets.

This week on Digital Music Trends I chat with Steve McClure, former Asia bureau chief of Billboard magazine and now executive editor of online newsletter McClureMusic.com, and Taishi Fukuyama, executive director at PRTL (http://prtl.jp/). As they are both experts in the Japanese music market we have an in-depth conversation about the subject including the recent news that it may overtake the US in revenues in 2013, the bumpy development of a digital ecosystem, the role of management and promotions companies, JASRAC, and more. We also cover international news with the partnership between Deezer and Foursquare, the launch of a premium option for Songza users and the RIAA changing certifications rules for digital albums in light of Jay-Z's release. Also a couple of service notes with SXSW opening up the Panelpicker process and the release of Napster's documentary "Downloaded".
I hope you enjoy the show, have a great week and 'till next time.
00:15 Introduction and guests
02:00 Foursquare announces a partnership with Deezer in 15 territories, is Foursquare pervasive enough to grant Deezer a chunk of new users?
08:00 The Japanese music market, on the brink of surpassing the US in terms of revenues, were you guys surprised? What is the current state of the Japanese music industry today?
13:15 The growth of the Japanese market has been tied to the rise in physical sales related to the J-pop phenomenon and very specific bands. This is not coupled with the growth of a sustainable digital market yet, is this a dangerous position to be in?
18:04 Who is the main provider of music downloads on "feature phones" and how do those work? Taishi talks about Recochoku and the availability of artist-specific subscription as well as on-demand downloads.
20:00 How come that these services didn't adapt to offer smartphone-based services too when the shift started happening over a year back?
27:00 Promic.tv is the latest website placing a focus on promoting Japanese music internationally, is there a lot of focus on breaking Japanese artists abroad and are Japanese artists working towards that?
36:45 The japanese authors society JASRAC is a huge part of the music industry in Japan, what kind of organisation is it, what's the perception of the society in JAPAN and how does it behave with digital services for example?
42:30 The RIAA decided to change its certification rules in light of the release of Magna Carta Holy Grail, implying that they will count the copies sold via Samsung as part of the certification process while Billboard stated they won't count towards the charts. What's your take on all this?
50:25 Songza launched a premium service with "Club Songza" priced at 99 cents per week.
56:00 What's the state of internet radio in Japan?
57:30 Napster Documentary "Downloaded" is available to download in the US
58:10 The SXSW machine restarts with the Panelpicker entries open once again

RIHANNA has become the first artist in the history of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) to go platinum and be certified with the 100 million song award.
The Barbados-born pop star released ANTI, her latest album on January 27, which earned its platinum certification shortly after it went on sale.
In only 14 hours, it was downloaded more than one million times through a free offer made possible by Rihanna’s Samsung partnership. While those downloads helped her earn this award, they were not counted by Nielsen.

"Standing Hampton" is Sammy Hagar's sixth solo studio album (ninth overall), his first after moving from Capitol Records to Geffen. It was his first album to achieve RIAA certification, eventually going platinum, and five of its singles charted in either the mainstream rock or pop singles charts.
The British version of the album was released with a bonus interview 45rpm called Conversations with Sammy Hagar.
Hagar has said that he was originally going to call this album "One Way To Rock". It was a British fan who told him of the term that came to be the title. In Cockney rhyming slang, a "Hampton" is a term for a penis. One that is "Standing", of course, would be a reference to an erection. This led to the cover art that shows a gentleman greeting a woman in various states of undress. The liner notes on the inner sleeve state that the cover graphics were inspired by the work of Surrealist painter Paul Delvaux.
Song information:
"I'll Fall in Love Again" was used in the soundtrack to the film Vision Quest.
A couple of non-album tracks, "Don't Get Hooked" and "Satisfied", appeared as B-sides and have not been released in any other format since.
"There's Only One Way to Rock" went on to be one of Hagar's biggest solo hits and a signature tune. This song, along with "I Can't Drive 55", were the two Hagar songs that Van Halen consistently played when he joined the band.
A different version of the song "Heavy Metal" was used for the soundtrack for the animated movie Heavy Metal.
The lyrics to the song "Inside Lookin' In" refers to "ringin' just like one UXB". UXB is an acronym for an "unexploded bomb". No known references to the UK punk band UXB have ever been cited.
The lyrics to "Sweet Hitchhiker" refers to "Blaupunkt blastin' my favorite song". Blaupunkt refers to a popular brand of car stereo.
"Piece of My Heart" is a cover of the song originally recorded by Erma Franklin and made famous by Janis Joplin.
Track listing:
01. I'll Fall in Love Again
02. There's Only One Way To Rock
03. Baby's On Fire
04. Can't Get Loose
05. Heavy Metal
06. Baby, It's You

The Recording Industry Association of America just announced it will now count streams when determining if a record qualifies for a gold or platinum certification.
The RIAA has been bestowing albums with gold and platinum labels since 1958. Up until now, only album sales counted toward a gold or platinum certification, despite the recent emergence and proliferation of streaming services. An artist needs to sell 500,000 copies of a single record for it to reach a gold benchmark and 1 million to go platinum. But this doesn't mean a single stream will now carry the same weight as an album sale — instead, the RIAA says 1,500 song or video streams will be equivalent to ten track sales or one album sale.
HEY, WE JUST REMEMBERED STREAMING!
"We know that music listening – for both albums and songs – is skyrocketing, yet that trend has not been reflected in our album certifications," Cary Sherman, CEO of the RIAA, said in today's announcement. Despite their struggles with profitability, streaming services account for millions of listeners, many of whom likely never purchase full albums. RIAA's move is a necessary one that finally recognizes the influence of streaming on the music industry. Plus, the RIAA has been stuck playing catch-up with Billboard, which has been counting streams on its own charts since the end of 2014.
The RIAA's new methodology was implemented today, which means several albums earned a gold, platinum, or double-platinum certification after the announcement, including Big Sean's Dark Sky Paradise, Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, and The Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness.

In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America awards certification based on the number of albums and singles sold through retail and other ancillary markets. Other countries have similar awards (see music recording sales certification). Certification is not automatic; for an award to be made, the record label must request certification and pay a fee to have the sales of the recording audited. The audit is conducted against net shipments after returns (most often an artist's royalty statement is used), which includes albums sold directly to retailers and one-stops, direct-to-consumer sales (music clubs and mail order) and other outlets..
Presently, an American RIAA-certified Gold record is a single or album that has sold 500,000 units (records, tapes or compact discs). Originally, the requirement for a Gold single was one million units sold and a Gold album represented $1 million in sales (at wholesale value). In 1975, the additional requirement of 500,000 units sold was added for Gold albums. Reflecting growth in record sales, the Platinum award was instituted in 1976 for albums selling one million units and singles selling two million units. The Multi-Platinum award was instituted in 1984, signifying multiple Platinum levels of albums and singles. In 1989, the sales thresholds for singles were reduced to 500,000 for Gold and 1,000,000 for Platinum, reflecting a decrease in sales of singles. In 1992, RIAA began counting each disc in a multi-disc set as one unit toward certification. Reflecting additional growth in music sales, the Diamond award was instituted in 1999 for albums or singles selling ten million units. Because of these changes in criteria, the sales level associated with a particular award depends on when the award was made.

Jermaine Lamar Cole (born January 28, 1985), better known by his stage name J. Cole, is an American rapper and record producer. In 2009, he was the first rap artist signed to Jay-Z's label Roc Nation. His long-awaited debut album titled Cole World: The Sideline Story was released on September 27, 2011. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, Top R&B Albums and Top Rap Albums chart, selling more than 217,000 in its first week sales. He received a nomination for Best New Artist at the 54th Grammy Awards
Cole was born on January 28, 1985. Cole's father served in the United States Army. At the age of 8 months old, he relocated to Fayetteville, North Carolina where he was raised by his mother, aunt and his cousin. Cole attended Terry Sanford High School in Fayetteville and graduated in 2003. He decided that he had a better chance of getting signed in New York City, so he chose to attend St. John's University on an academic scholarship where he majored in communication and minored in business, graduating magna cum laude.

A couple of non-album tracks, "Don't Get Hooked" and "Satisfied", appeared as B-sides and have not been released in any other format since. "There's Only One Way to Rock" went on to be one of Hagar's biggest solo hits and a signature tune. This song, along with "I Can't Drive 55", were the two Hagar songs that Van Halen consistently played when he joined the band. A different version of the song "Heavy Metal" was used for the soundtrack for the animated movie Heavy Metal. The lyrics to the song "Inside Lookin' In" refers to "ringin' just like one UXB". UXB is an acronym for an "unexploded bomb". No known references to the UK punk band UXB have ever been cited. The lyrics to "Sweet Hitchhiker" refers to "Blaupunkt blastin' my favorite song". Blaupunkt refers to a popular brand of car stereo. "Piece of My Heart" is a cover of the song originally recorded by Erma Franklin and made famous by Janis Joplin. Track listing: 01.

1:41The RIAA !
The RIAA !The RIAA !
The Recording Industry Association of America just announced it will now count streams when determining if a record qualifies for a gold or platinum certification. The RIAA has been bestowing albums with gold and platinum labels since 1958. Up until now, only album sales counted toward a gold or platinum certification, despite the recent emergence and proliferation of streaming services. An artist needs to sell 500,000 copies of a single record for it to reach a gold benchmark and 1 million to go platinum. But this doesn't mean a single stream will now carry the same weight as an album sale — instead, the RIAA says 1,500 song or video streams will be equivalent to ten track sales or one album sale. HEY, WE JUST REMEMBERED STREAMING! "We know that music listening – for both albums and songs – is skyrocketing, yet that trend has not been reflected in our album certifications," Cary Sherman, CEO of the RIAA, said in today's announcement. Despite their struggles with profitability, streaming services account for millions of listeners, many of whom likely never purchase full albums. RIAA's move is a necessary one that finally recognizes the influence of streaming on the music industry. Plus, the RIAA has been stuck playing catch-up with Billboard, which has been counting streams on its own charts since the end of 2014. The RIAA's new methodology was implemented today, which means several albums earned a gold, platinum, or double-platinum certification after the announcement, including Big Sean's Dark Sky Paradise, Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, and The Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness. -

RIAA certification
In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America, (RIAA) awards certification based on the number of albums and singles sold through retail and other ancillary markets. Other countries have similar awards (see music recording sales certification). Certification is not automatic; for an award to be made, the record label must request certification and pay a fee to have the sales of the recording audited. The audit is conducted against net shipments after returns (most often an artist's royalty statement is used), which includes albums sold directly to retailers and one-stops, direct-to-consumer sales (music clubs and mail order) and other outlets.

DMT 139: the Japanese music market, Foursquare + Deezer, RIAA Certifications, Songza and more
This week on Digital Music Trends I chat with Steve McClure, former Asia bureau chief of Billboard magazine and now executive editor of online newsletter McClureMusic.com, and Taishi Fukuyama, executive director at PRTL (http://prtl.jp/). As they are both experts in the Japanese music market we have an in-depth conversation about the subject including the recent news that it may overtake the US in revenues in 2013, the bumpy development of a digital ecosystem, the role of management and promotions companies, JASRAC, and more. We also cover international news with the partnership between Deezer and Foursquare, the launch of a premium option for Songza users and the RIAA changing certifications rules for digital albums in light of Jay-Z's release. Also a couple of service notes with SXSW opening up the Panelpicker process and the release of Napster's documentary "Downloaded". I hope you enjoy the show, have a great week and 'till next time. 00:15 Introduction and guests 02:00 Foursquare announces a partnership with Deezer in 15 territories, is Foursquare pervasive enough to grant Deezer a chunk of new users? 08:00 The Japanese music market, on the brink of surpassing the US in terms of revenues, were you guys surprised? What is the current state of the Japanese music industry today? 13:15 The growth of the Japanese market has been tied to the rise in physical sales related to the J-pop phenomenon and very specific bands. This is not coupled with the growth of a sustainable digital market yet, is this a dangerous position to be in? 18:04 Who is the main provider of music downloads on "feature phones" and how do those work? Taishi talks about Recochoku and the availability of artist-specific subscription as well as on-demand downloads. 20:00 How come that these services didn't adapt to offer smartphone-based services too when the shift started happening over a year back? 27:00 Promic.tv is the latest website placing a focus on promoting Japanese music internationally, is there a lot of focus on breaking Japanese artists abroad and are Japanese artists working towards that? 36:45 The japanese authors society JASRAC is a huge part of the music industry in Japan, what kind of organisation is it, what's the perception of the society in JAPAN and how does it behave with digital services for example? 42:30 The RIAA decided to change its certification rules in light of the release of Magna Carta Holy Grail, implying that they will count the copies sold via Samsung as part of the certification process while Billboard stated they won't count towards the charts. What's your take on all this? 50:25 Songza launched a premium service with "Club Songza" priced at 99 cents per week. 56:00 What's the state of internet radio in Japan? 57:30 Napster Documentary "Downloaded" is available to download in the US 58:10 The SXSW machine restarts with the Panelpicker entries open once again 58:57 Thanks and outro Andrea Leonelli http://www.digitalmusictrends.com http://www.twitter.com/digimusictrends -

Sammy Hagar - Standing Hampton [Full Album] (Remastered)
"Standing Hampton" is Sammy Hagar's sixth solo studio album (ninth overall), his first after moving from Capitol Records to Geffen. It was his first album to achieve RIAA certification, eventually going platinum, and five of its singles charted in either the mainstream rock or pop singles charts. The British version of the album was released with a bonus interview 45rpm called Conversations with Sammy Hagar. Hagar has said that he was originally going to call this album "One Way To Rock". It was a British fan who told him of the term that came to be the title. In Cockney rhyming slang, a "Hampton" is a term for a penis. One that is "Standing", of course, would be a reference to an erection. This led to the cover art that shows a gentleman greeting a woman in various states of undress. The liner notes on the inner sleeve state that the cover graphics were inspired by the work of Surrealist painter Paul Delvaux. Song information: "I'll Fall in Love Again" was used in the soundtrack to the film Vision Quest. A couple of non-album tracks, "Don't Get Hooked" and "Satisfied", appeared as B-sides and have not been released in any other format since. "There's Only One Way to Rock" went on to be one of Hagar's biggest solo hits and a signature tune. This song, along with "I Can't Drive 55", were the two Hagar songs that Van Halen consistently played when he joined the band. A different version of the song "Heavy Metal" was used for the soundtrack for the animated movie Heavy Metal. The lyrics to the song "Inside Lookin' In" refers to "ringin' just like one UXB". UXB is an acronym for an "unexploded bomb". No known references to the UK punk band UXB have ever been cited. The lyrics to "Sweet Hitchhiker" refers to "Blaupunkt blastin' my favorite song". Blaupunkt refers to a popular brand of car stereo. "Piece of My Heart" is a cover of the song originally recorded by Erma Franklin and made famous by Janis Joplin. Track listing: 01. I'll Fall in Love Again 02. There's Only One Way To Rock 03. Baby's On Fire 04. Can't Get Loose 05. Heavy Metal 06. Baby, It's You 07. Surrender 08. Inside Lookin' In 09. Sweet Hitchhiker 10.

The RIAA !
The Recording Industry Association of America just announced it will now count streams when determining if a record qualifies for a gold or platinum certification. The RIAA has been bestowing albums with gold and platinum labels since 1958. Up until now, only album sales counted toward a gold or platinum certification, despite the recent emergence and proliferation of streaming services. An artist needs to sell 500,000 copies of a single record for it to reach a gold benchmark and 1 million to go platinum. But this doesn't mean a single stream will now carry the same weight as an album sale — instead, the RIAA says 1,500 song or video streams will be equivalent to ten track sales or one album sale. HEY, WE JUST REMEMBERED STREAMING! "We know that music listening – for both albums and songs – is skyrocketing, yet that trend has not been reflected in our album certifications," Cary Sherman, CEO of the RIAA, said in today's announcement. Despite their struggles with profitability, streaming services account for millions of listeners, many of whom likely never purchase full albums. RIAA's move is a necessary one that finally recognizes the influence of streaming on the music industry. Plus, the RIAA has been stuck playing catch-up with Billboard, which has been counting streams on its own charts since the end of 2014. The RIAA's new methodology was implemented today, which means several albums earned a gold, platinum, or double-platinum certification after the announcement, including Big Sean's Dark Sky Paradise, Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, and The Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness. -

In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America, (RIAA) awards certification based on the number of albums and singles sold through retail and other ancillary markets. Other countries have similar awards (see music recording sales certification). Certification is not automatic; for an award to be made, the record label must request certification and pay a fee to have the sales of the recording audited. The audit is conducted against net shipments after returns (most often an artist's royalty statement is used), which includes albums sold directly to retailers and one-stops, direct-to-consumer sales (music clubs and mail order) and other outlets.

This week on Digital Music Trends I chat with Steve McClure, former Asia bureau chief of Billboard magazine and now executive editor of online newsletter McClureMusic.com, and Taishi Fukuyama, executive director at PRTL (http://prtl.jp/). As they are both experts in the Japanese music market we have an in-depth conversation about the subject including the recent news that it may overtake the US in revenues in 2013, the bumpy development of a digital ecosystem, the role of management and promotions companies, JASRAC, and more. We also cover international news with the partnership between Deezer and Foursquare, the launch of a premium option for Songza users and the RIAA changing certifications rules for digital albums in light of Jay-Z's release. Also a couple of service notes with SXSW opening up the Panelpicker process and the release of Napster's documentary "Downloaded".
I hope you enjoy the show, have a great week and 'till next time.
00:15 Introduction and guests
02:00 Foursquare announces a partnership with Deezer in 15 territories, is Foursquare pervasive enough to grant Deezer a chunk of new users?
08:00 The Japanese music market, on the brink of surpassing the US in terms of revenues, were you guys surprised? What is the current state of the Japanese music industry today?
13:15 The growth of the Japanese market has been tied to the rise in physical sales related to the J-pop phenomenon and very specific bands. This is not coupled with the growth of a sustainable digital market yet, is this a dangerous position to be in?
18:04 Who is the main provider of music downloads on "feature phones" and how do those work? Taishi talks about Recochoku and the availability of artist-specific subscription as well as on-demand downloads.
20:00 How come that these services didn't adapt to offer smartphone-based services too when the shift started happening over a year back?
27:00 Promic.tv is the latest website placing a focus on promoting Japanese music internationally, is there a lot of focus on breaking Japanese artists abroad and are Japanese artists working towards that?
36:45 The japanese authors society JASRAC is a huge part of the music industry in Japan, what kind of organisation is it, what's the perception of the society in JAPAN and how does it behave with digital services for example?
42:30 The RIAA decided to change its certification rules in light of the release of Magna Carta Holy Grail, implying that they will count the copies sold via Samsung as part of the certification process while Billboard stated they won't count towards the charts. What's your take on all this?
50:25 Songza launched a premium service with "Club Songza" priced at 99 cents per week.
56:00 What's the state of internet radio in Japan?
57:30 Napster Documentary "Downloaded" is available to download in the US
58:10 The SXSW machine restarts with the Panelpicker entries open once again
58:57 Thanks and outro

08:00 The Japanese music market, on the brink of surpassing the US in terms of revenues, were you guys surprised? What is the current state of the Japanese music industry today?
13:15 The growth of the Japanese market has been tied to the rise in physical sales related to the J-pop phenomenon and very specific bands. This is not coupled with the growth of a sustainable digital market yet, is this a dangerous position to be in?
18:04 Who is the main provider of music downloads on "feature phones" and how do those work? Taishi talks about Recochoku and the availability of artist-specific subscription as well as on-demand downloads.
20:00 How come that these services didn't adapt to offer smartphone-based services too when the shift started happening over a year back?
27:00 Promic.tv is the latest website placing a focus on promoting Japanese music internationally, is there a lot of focus on breaking Japanese artists abroad and are Japanese artists working towards that?
36:45 The japanese authors society JASRAC is a huge part of the music industry in Japan, what kind of organisation is it, what's the perception of the society in JAPAN and how does it behave with digital services for example?
42:30 The RIAA decided to change its certification rules in light of the release of Magna Carta Holy Grail, implying that they will count the copies sold via Samsung as part of the certification process while Billboard stated they won't count towards the charts. What's your take on all this?

RIHANNA has become the first artist in the history of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) to go platinum and be certified with the 100 million song award.
The Barbados-born pop star released ANTI, her latest album on January 27, which earned its platinum certification shortly after it went on sale.
In only 14 hours, it was downloaded more than one million times through a free offer made possible by Rihanna’s Samsung partnership. While those downloads helped her earn this award, they were not counted by Nielsen.

"Standing Hampton" is Sammy Hagar's sixth solo studio album (ninth overall), his first after moving from Capitol Records to Geffen. It was his first album to achieve RIAA certification, eventually going platinum, and five of its singles charted in either the mainstream rock or pop singles charts.
The British version of the album was released with a bonus interview 45rpm called Conversations with Sammy Hagar.
Hagar has said that he was originally going to call this album "One Way To Rock". It was a British fan who told him of the term that came to be the title. In Cockney rhyming slang, a "Hampton" is a term for a penis. One that is "Standing", of course, would be a reference to an erection. This led to the cover art that shows a gentleman greeting a woman in various states of undress. The liner notes on the inner sleeve state that the cover graphics were inspired by the work of Surrealist painter Paul Delvaux.
Song information:
"I'll Fall in Love Again" was used in the soundtrack to the film Vision Quest.
A couple of non-album tracks, "Don't Get Hooked" and "Satisfied", appeared as B-sides and have not been released in any other format since.
"There's Only One Way to Rock" went on to be one of Hagar's biggest solo hits and a signature tune. This song, along with "I Can't Drive 55", were the two Hagar songs that Van Halen consistently played when he joined the band.
A different version of the song "Heavy Metal" was used for the soundtrack for the animated movie Heavy Metal.
The lyrics to the song "Inside Lookin' In" refers to "ringin' just like one UXB". UXB is an acronym for an "unexploded bomb". No known references to the UK punk band UXB have ever been cited.
The lyrics to "Sweet Hitchhiker" refers to "Blaupunkt blastin' my favorite song". Blaupunkt refers to a popular brand of car stereo.
"Piece of My Heart" is a cover of the song originally recorded by Erma Franklin and made famous by Janis Joplin.
Track listing:
01. I'll Fall in Love Again
02. There's Only One Way To Rock
03. Baby's On Fire
04. Can't Get Loose
05. Heavy Metal
06. Baby, It's You

The Recording Industry Association of America just announced it will now count streams when determining if a record qualifies for a gold or platinum certification.
The RIAA has been bestowing albums with gold and platinum labels since 1958. Up until now, only album sales counted toward a gold or platinum certification, despite the recent emergence and proliferation of streaming services. An artist needs to sell 500,000 copies of a single record for it to reach a gold benchmark and 1 million to go platinum. But this doesn't mean a single stream will now carry the same weight as an album sale — instead, the RIAA says 1,500 song or video streams will be equivalent to ten track sales or one album sale.
HEY, WE JUST REMEMBERED STREAMING!
"We know that music listening – for both albums and songs – is skyrocketing, yet that trend has not been reflected in our album certifications," Cary Sherman, CEO of the RIAA, said in today's announcement. Despite their struggles with profitability, streaming services account for millions of listeners, many of whom likely never purchase full albums. RIAA's move is a necessary one that finally recognizes the influence of streaming on the music industry. Plus, the RIAA has been stuck playing catch-up with Billboard, which has been counting streams on its own charts since the end of 2014.
The RIAA's new methodology was implemented today, which means several albums earned a gold, platinum, or double-platinum certification after the announcement, including Big Sean's Dark Sky Paradise, Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, and The Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness.
