Abstract [en]

This chapter about the Long Tail (as defined by to Chris Andersson) explores the field of music producers whose work has smaller audiences and how digitalization has shaped their possibilities for pursuing a career in the music business. When introduced in the early 2000s, this model saw an increase of opportunities because of the re-shaping of the distribution of music that made the manufacturing and storing of physical records obsolete. This idea is contrasted with the reality of music producers today as articulated in the interviews of this volume.
