Julie Blake works in publishing at the Erased Tapes record label in London, licensing music to films and other projects. She joins me to talk about her background as an up-and-coming teen rocker and CD store manager, the preponderance of music business figures from Kitchener, Ontario, co-founding publishing house Third Side Music, the pros and cons of Spotify, the emotional resonance of certain sounds, her unabashed appreciation of Coldplay and Cirque du Soleil, and much more.
Check out Julie's Spotify playlist for the episode.
