pWe’ve been hearing the moans and groans of the music industry for a while about its demise due to lack of interest in the physical music product. And some of us still love that physical experience of putting on a record–the scent of it, delicately placing the needle on the vinyl, and pushing play. Luckily designers and other creatives see these changes as opportunities, and interesting new ways of experiencing and connecting with music are finally picking up some steam. A recent example we a href=”http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/ghostly_and_boym_partners_devise_a_new_way_to_deliver_digital_music__17035.asp”wrote/a about is Boym Partners’ collaboration with a href=”http://ghostly.com/”Ghostly Records/a, involving a “totem” designed to bring tactile life to Matthew Dear’s Black City album. /p
pAnd a href=”http://www.arcadefire.com/”Arcade Fire/a seem to be on a roll with their new album The Suburbs, first by accompanying the a href=”http://www.arcadefire.com/the-suburbs/”digital version/a of the album with virtual liner notes to browse while playing it on your smart phone. Now the Canadian band has unveiled their next tech-y endeavor for Suburbs, collaborating with Google and writer/director Chris Milk in the release of a pretty incredible and personalized experience for their song “We Used to Wait.” The a href=”http://thewildernessdowntown.com/””Wilderness Downtown”/a is Milk’s interpretation of the Arcade Fire song, and also a great experimentation with all the bells and whistles one gets to play with by working with Google.br /
