Library Minute: Music Industry Resources

Parsons Music Library subscribes to three online resources that offer a wide range of data, analysis, and news related to the music industry:

Music ID compiles global music industry data into three platforms. Music ID Data provides access to worldwide chart data tracking record sales, iTunes downloads, and Spotify streams, and can relate them to world events; Music ID Revenue tracks the worldwide top earning recordings of the 21st century; and Music ID Impact offers research data on the top artists, songs, and albums going back to 1900.  Brief tutorials and a quick start guide help you make the most of this data-rich resource.


Music Ally provides insight briefings, monthly insight reports, news, marketing reports, trend reports, country profiles, and data on the music industry.


Musical America offers news from the classical music industry, a database featuring artists and artist managers, links to venues and presenters, and a directory of arts organizations.
