Ep3: Financial Independence & Value, with Jamie (Sound of Fractures) and CY Lee

Today’s focus is on financial independence. Within the JUICE framework, we believe that freedom to operate and scale your endeavours requires independence from outside influence and inhibitors.

And so for today's conversation we wanted to explore this topic with people coming from a couple of different angles. From the independent artist side, we have Jamie, who goes under the name Sound of Fractures, and from the music fan side, we have CY Lee.

Interestingly, as you’ll see, the conversation moves very quickly from the challenges of being financially independent in the music industries, and towards fundamental questions around the value of music itself in the modern digital age.

Within this discussion, we explore what it even means to be an artist nowadays and whether, in fact, musicians should be thinking more about network value rather than the specific value that their tracks are generating. Leading to questions around how those artists can benefit more from the value that is generated around their work.
