Ep. 33: Making Musicians Money with Soumini Sridhara Paul

<p>The business of music in India has come a long way from the Bollywood dominated days of the previous decades. Indie music is turning more and more viable for musicians. A couple of weeks ago, I talked to Dhruv Singh, from Pagal Haina about building up epic indie acts like Pratik Kuhad and Peter Cat Recording Company - check out that episode if you haven’t. To continue my exploration of the extant indie music scene, today I’m talking to Soumini Sridhara Paul, VP at Hungama and the woman behind the 10-year old digital music platform Artist Aloud. Soumini has spent 20 years repping musicians, creating revenue streams, and launching albums.</p><p>Follow Soumini on Twitter @ssp10feb and on LinkedIn at <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/souminisridharapaul" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.linkedin.com/in/souminisridharapaul</a></p><p>Follow Vineet Kanabar on Instagram and Twitter: @ascharyafuckit</p><p>You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: <a href="https://ivm.today/android" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/android</a> or iOS: <a href="https://ivm.today/ios" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/ios</a>, or any other podcast app.</p><p>You can also check out our website at <a href="http://www.ivmpodcasts.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">http://www.ivmpodcasts.com</a></p>
