    Ben Bloomberg on the JUMP Music Podcast SE2-EP16 Ben Bloomberg - @benbloomberg https://youtu.be/lR3ICUI_pE8 Ben is a Grammy nominated creative technologist who imagines, designs and builds everything from electro-acoustic musical instruments to AI driven performances and tours. He specializes in the conception and implementation of advanced surround sound and interactive music systems. His recent work with Jacob Collier involved the creation of Collier’s signature Harmoniser and the development of his groundbreaking one-man-show, for which he was praised by the Guardian as “the Tonto’s Expanding Headband to Collier’s Stevie Wonder.” As a recent graduate of the MIT Media Lab, Ben worked with Composer/Professor Tod Machover, as sound designer for two recent operas; Schoenberg in Hollywood, and Pulitzer finalist Death and the Powers (a robot opera), as well as six City Symphonies, working with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal under Kent Nagano, Philadelphia Orchestra under Yannick Nézet-Séguin, and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra under Peter Oundjian. In addition he worked with the Metropole Orkest under Jules Buckley for Collier’s Djesse Vol. 1 album, and with Jacob as a core part of the Djesse project. He was nominated for the Album of the Year Grammy in 2021 for his mixing and engineering contributions to Djesse Vol. 3. Ben started recording and running live sound at age nine and has since worked on hundreds of projects in venues and studios all over the world, including Abbey Road, the Hollywood Bowl, Royal Albert Hall, and Carnegie Hall. He has crossed paths with many other artists, engineers and designers— from Björk to Ariana Grande, people seem to seek him out when there is a challenge that hasn’t been seen before, requiring novel, creative and highly customized solutions. Ben is passionate about finding human-centric experiences even when technology is abundant and predominant. In doing this he strives to interweave creative, technical, social, and logistical aspects of production, all necessary to craft compelling musical experiences for the present day and beyond.

    Damian Keyes - Social Media, Building an Audience and the Future of the Music Industry!

    JUMP Music Podcast Season 2 – EP15 with Damian Keyes @damiankeyes   Damian Keyes is an award-winning Entrepreneur, Educator, Music Industry & Social Media Specialist, Musician, Author, YouTuber… And Jedi.   When it comes to music education and mentoring musicians to strategise their career, Damian has proven he is the best in the world. At 23, Damian founded and built The British Institute of Modern Music (BIMM - now known as BIMM Institute), currently valued at over $250m, and they are the largest set of music colleges in the world. Artists that studied at BIMM under Damian include George Ezra, The Kooks and James Bay.  In addition to this, Damian has worked as a professional bass player internationally, alongside artists such as Eric Clapton, Alanis Morissette, The Who and Bob Dylan. After building BIMM, Damian went on to successfully build and invest in several other businesses, including a management company for musicians (DK Music Management) and a live agency (Warble Entertainment).   The constant for Damian has always been educating & advising musicians throughout all stages of their career, whilst being at the forefront of navigating changes in the music industry. Damian has built an online community of over 200k musicians online, through YouTube, Instagram and Facebook. Damian has also released two Amazon best-selling books for musicians, The Rule Breakers Guide to Social Media & Stop Selling Music: Career Changing Lessons for Musicians.   Damian is inundated with messages every day from musicians wanting his expertise & guidance for their career. He realised that he wasn’t able to keep up with the demand through YouTube & Instagram alone, so wanted to establish a community where musicians can have more access to him & his training. So in 2020 he set up DKMBA, where members have access to courses teaching them everything they'd need to know about the music industry from social media, to platforms, to releasing their music. Hosting weekly live sessions and being directly involved with the community means he can work closely with musicians and help them achieve the successes they'd only dreamt about!'   JUMP Music Initiative @jumpmusicinitiative is a not for profit that hosts music industry workshops and live original music showcases for young artists.
