The term organic is used to describe bands where the mucic comes first, they make the kind of music they want to make and then the record labels (if signed) try and sell this music to the correct segement and example of organic music is the beatles.The Beatles were an English rock band that formed in Liverpool, in 1960. With John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, they became widely regarded as the greatest and most influential act of the rock era.
The beatles grew together as a band, they wasn't doing it for the lifestyle they would lead but their passion for the music they was making.The band met when John Lennon formed the group The Quarrymen in March 1957 with some school friends then later Paul McCartney joined as a guitarist in July. Paul invited George Harrison who later joined them and the name changed to The Beatles as a suggestion from Lennon's schoolmate Stuart Sutcliffe.
Organic music often appeals to a niche, but can appeal to a mass audience too Radio Head are a good example because the music comes first.
Synthetic music is another type it refers to the 'X Factor' methodology and it is the record labels that sit in the driving seat.
A gap in the market is identified, and then it is exploited by the development of music, and often the artist, to suit this gap, money is the ultimate goal in this operation. Acts such as 'One Direction 'are a good example of manufactured artists.
One Direction auditioned as solo artists on the X Factor and when going into bootcamp the judges suggested that they are put into a group to get them further in the competition. They then got to the finals and lost to Rebecca Ferguson and Matt Cardle.
After the X factor One Direction was signed to Syco and then Columbia records. The boyband have won four Brit Awards and four MTV video music awards one direction were known as the wealthiest artists under the age of 30 million.
Their new perfume was released in 2014 and this is how they create a brand.
