"Currently, less than 2% of global philanthropic funding is dedicated to addressing climate change, not nearly enough to meet the scale of the global challenge. Given that any other charity initiative is, by definition, ultimately futile unless climate breakdown is addressed, this motivated me to look for ways in which music could change that dynamic."

"To find genuinely ground-breaking Indian music, you’d have to look towards its vibrant and varied independent music scene, which has birthed such new genres as “gully rap” pioneered by the likes of Divine, “desi bass” popularised by Nucleya, and “Hindustani dance music” fashioned by Ritviz."

Amit Gurbaxani tells us a little bit about why the Indian independent music scene might be offer a fresh perspective into anyone keen on mapping Indian music in the global scene.

Spotify CEO Daniel Ek recently told Music Ally that he believes “100% that we’re going to see a rise of Bollywood and new types of Indian music making it into the global scene in the very near future”.

Every year, Hyperallergic comes out with its annual powerless list – a list of those who have been rendered powerless as a result of systemic discrimination and exploitation courtesy the super wealthy and the creative practices/organisations that serve them. It might seem like a sour way to start a new year, but we'd like to believe that it can be a powerful reminder of what we're still facing in the road ahead. Have a look and let us know what you think.

Welcome to our annual list which highlights those who are rendered powerless in a system influenced by the super wealthy and the commercial galleries, nonprofits, museums, and publications that serve them.

Banksy has been stripped of the trademark of his famous Flower Thrower image after he failed to reveal his identity to judges and was found to have tried “to circumvent the law” by opening a pop-up shop in Croydon, south London last October in a bid to protect his trademarks. The ruling by the European Union Intellectual Property Office comes after a two-year legal battle with the card company Full Colour Black, which contested Banksy’s trademark rights to his own name and imagery.

The street artist opened a pop-up shop in Croydon last year in a bid to protect his image rights, but was found to have “acted in bad faith”

"The legal status of sharing anime and manga on the Internet has been a hot topic in Japan lately. With anime and manga becoming a larger share of Japan's exports, it's natural the country would want to defend one of its greatest assets. That thinking led to the promulgation of a new law that would have ostensibly made it easier for authorities in Japan to crack down on illegal pirate sites."
