Diana Torossian Diana Torossian Diana Torossian is a music industry veteran who has been responsible for discovering, developing and managing some of the country’s biggest artists and songwriters. From her days at EMI Music Publishing Australia, when Diana was responsible for signings such as Baby Animals, Diesel and Hoodoo Gurus, through time at Mushroom Music Publishing, Sony Music Australia and Polygram Music Publishing Australia, Peter Hoyland Management all the way to being Manager of A&R at BMG Music Publishing Australia, involved in signing the likes of Powderfinger, Rogue Traders, The Androids, The Grates, Adam Reily, Phil Buckle, and David Campbell. After leaving BMG, Diana decided it was time to make use of all her contacts and knowledge as an independent player in the scene, starting out by creating writing schedules and sourcing songs for artists including the debut album for Jessica Mauboy. This led into setting up her own management company to specialise in looking after writers and producers only – Diana manages David Musumeci and Anthony Egizii who are DNA, the most prolific and successful songwriters in the country with sales over 8 million units, seven #1s and twenty Top 10 chart appearances with hits for The Veronicas, Nathaniel, Samantha Jade, Dami Im, Jessica Mauboy, Delta Goodrem and many more. Having managed the likes of Sarah Aarons and Lindsay Rimes, Diana continues to manage DNA eleven years on, along with LA-based Wunderkind, Michael Fatkin and Melbourne- based writer/producer, Andrew Lowden. .

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Kesha Triumphs with New Song "Praying" New Album
    KESHA TRIUMPHS WITH NEW SONG "PRAYING" NEW ALBUM 'RAINBOW' TO BE RELEASED ON AUGUST 11TH Kesha reclaims her place in the music world with her new song, "Praying" - the initial advance track from 'Rainbow', her first album in nearly five years. Kesha wrote "Praying" with Ryan Lewis, Ben Abraham, and Andrew Joslyn; Lewis (Macklemore & Ryan Lewis) produced the track. 'Rainbow' will be released August 11th on Kemosabe Records/RCA Records. It is available for pre-order now. Links below. The music video for "Praying," directed by Jonas Åkerlund, is also available now: http://smarturl.it/vPraying 'Rainbow' marks a new beginning for Kesha, one based around inner strength and musical exploration as she achieves her vision for the album by enlisting a roster of collaborators ranging from Eagles of Death Metal to Dolly Parton. Ben Folds produced the title track with Kesha, while Ricky Reed produced and wrote numerous tracks as well. Wrabel co-wrote a collaboration that features the Dap-Kings horn section. Eagles of Death Metal are featured on two tracks, while Parton guests on a version of her 1980 country chart-topper "Old Flames Can't Hold a Candle to You." The track was co-written by Kesha's mother Pebe Sebert, who also has other songwriting credits on 'Rainbow'. Kesha penned a personal essay for the Lenny Letter to go along with "Praying": http://shorefi.re/KeshaLennyLetter The year Kesha released her debut album, 'Animal', Billboard declared her its Hot 100 Artist. Her debut single, "TiK ToK," named Billboard's #1 Hot 100 Song, was the most played song of 2010 and was the world's top-selling track that year.
