Ep. #69 - Geir Luedy - Om managerrollen, lærdommene, AURORA og kjærligheten til musikken

søndag 5. november 2023

Geir Luedy er blant annet kjent som CEO i Made Management, produsent, tidligere bandmedlem og suksessmanager. Den snart bokaktuelle bergenseren har nemlig sørget for internasjonale gjennombrudd for artister som Aurora og Sigird. Helt fra han droppet ut av videregående skole for å banke på første dør inn i musikkbransjen, har det gått slag i slag for den travle småbarnsfaren, som har over 100 reisedøgn i året. I denne episoden lærer vi mer om hans hverdag som manager og strukturelle endringer i musikkbransjen. Hvordan rigger man artistene for utviklingen man har sett i bransjen de siste årene? Og hvordan har tidligere erfaringer hjulpet han til å bli en bedre manager i dag? Kicker han ofte på ny musikk? Og har han sagt nei til samarbeid han angrer på i dag?

Ep. #69 - Geir Luedy - About the role of manager, the lessons learned, AURORA and the love of music

Sunday, November 5, 2023

Geir Luedy is known, among other things, as CEO of Made Management, producer, former band member and successful manager. The soon-to-be-published Bergen native has ensured international breakthroughs for artists such as Aurora and Sigird. Ever since he dropped out of high school to knock on the first door into the music business, things have gone from bad to worse for the busy father of young children, who spends over 100 days traveling a year. In this episode we learn more about his everyday life as a manager and structural changes in the music industry. How do you prepare the artists for the developments you have seen in the industry in recent years? And how have past experiences helped him to become a better manager today? Does he often play new music? And has he said no to collaboration that he regrets today?

KJÆRLIGHETEN TIL MUSIKKEN

For å feire de fem fine årene jeg har fått holde på med det jeg elsker, skal jeg markere Drømmefanger-bursdagen med en egen temaspalte “Kjærligheten til musikken”. Fem år, representert av fem personer, som på hver sin måte har preget musikkscenen i Bergen, og gjort den til det den er blitt til i dag.

Det er få ting som gjør meg så glad som musikk, og det vet jeg gjelder for flere av dere som følger med her inne, så derfor måtte dette skje.

Førstemann ut er veteranen Geir Luedy - som har hatt et enormt bidrag inn i musikken - både lokalt, nasjonalt og internasjonalt. Bare å glede seg!

Lite tips: Jeg har allerede hatt gjester som absolutt har preget byens musikkscene, så sjekk gjerne ut episodene med Girson Dias, Annie, Miss Tati, Kjetil Møster, Vågard Unstad, Gabriel Munoz m flere.

THE LOVE OF MUSIC

To celebrate the five wonderful years I've been able to do what I love, I'm going to mark the Dream Catcher's birthday with a separate themed column "The love of music". Five years, represented by five people, who in their own way have shaped the music scene in Bergen, and made it what it is today.

There are few things that make me as happy as music, and I know that applies to several of you who follow along here, so this had to happen.

The first man out is the veteran Geir Luedy - who has had an enormous contribution to music - both locally, nationally and internationally. Just to enjoy!

Little tip: I've already had guests who have certainly made an impact on the city's music scene, so feel free to check out the episodes with Girson Dias, Annie, Miss Tati, Kjetil Møster, Vågard Unstad, Gabriel Munoz and more.

Ep. #71 - Mikal Telle - Katalysatoren

søndag 17. desember 2023

Mikal Telle har over 30 års erfaring i musikkbransjen. Det hele startet på ungdomsklubben hvor han arrangerte sine første raves, som han senere skulle bli kjent for i Bergen Sentrum, og senere resten av landet. Videre fulgte en egen platebutikk som 19-åring og plateselskapet hvor artister som Annie, Röyksopp, Kings Of Convenience og Ralph Myerz fikk eksportert ut musikk sin. I dag jobber han fulltid med blant annet Hothothot-festivalen, House of Telle og MADE. I denne episoden forteller han mer om hvordan musikkeventyret startet, hva som er drivkraften hans, hvordan han sjonglerer de ulike prosjektene og hvorfor han takket nei til et eget klesmerke i Japan. Og sist, men ikke minst: Hva hadde han gjort om han fant en pingvin i fryseren?

Ep. #71 - Mikal Telle - The catalyst

Sunday, December 17, 2023

Mikal Telle has over 30 years of experience in the music industry. It all started at the youth club where he organized his first raves, for which he would later become known in Bergen Centre, and later the rest of the country. Then followed his own record store as a 19-year-old and the record company from where artists such as Annie, Röyksopp, Kings Of Convenience and Ralph Myerz were able to export their music. Today he works full-time with, among others, the Hothothot festival, House of Telle and MADE. In this episode, he tells more about how the musical adventure started, what is his driving force, how he juggles the various projects and why he turned down his own clothing brand in Japan. And last but not least: What would he have done if he found a penguin in the freezer?
