My name is Ed Donnelly. I am a tech entrepreneur at Aderra where we have developed innovative technologies to digitally distribute recordings of live concerts to fans.I started playing and recording music when I was 12 years old. I built a studio in my parents basement with a 4 track recording machine. By 15 I was releasing records, on vinyl (not because it was cool but because that is what you did back then...). I started Eggfoot Records with some friends in 1990. We have released 20 albums and countless singles and E.P.s. And I have written and recorded the music for a hundred or so TV commercials. I left being a full time musician in 1997 to ride the tech bubble for a bit.Now after a decade in the tech industry I find myself back in music. But things have changed quite a bit. For the most part things are getting better. But you'd never know it listening to most of the folks at record labels.I started this blog to be specifically about music and the music business (no company news or rants about the local city council, I already have blogs for that...) to share my insights.
