Cover is so chillwave
​We hope you learned something: Today is your last chance to absorb invaluable industry wisdom at one of CMJ's afternoon panels. Next year we're actually getting the Why Does CMJ Still Exist? panel off the ground, I swear to god. Until then, here's your final slate, listed below with unhelpful editorial comment.


Miles Davis - Bitches Brew 40th Anniversary Tribute. NO WHITE PEOPLE ALLOWED.

Take a Left at the Label: D.T.F. Whatever you think that acronym means is not what the vast majority of the rest of the world thinks it means.

The Mindset of the Venue Booker. "I need to find a nice, quiet place to snort this cocaine."

Follow The Spot; The Music Industry's Madmen. Oh shit, Diplo is marrying his secretary!

Getting Paid From the Song Stone-faced industry wonks sitting around listening to Train's "Hey Soul Sister" on a loop for an hour and a half.

Hitting Your Target: Using Adwords, Facebook Ads & Blog Networks To Reach Your Fans "Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. would like to stay in touch on LinkedIn."

Today's Featured Download. Whatever you do, don't make it that new Black Eyed Peas song.

Rough to Refined: Exploring Recording from Demo to the Finished Product. Tough to make out what anyone's saying here through all the reverb.

Mentor Session: Early Career Counseling and Info. "If you're going to channel Sublime convincingly, you need to gain 100 pounds and develop a heroin habit."
