30% of calls to radiology centers go unanswered. With Avoca, they don’t have to. Our radiology-specific AI handles calls, online scheduling and faxes, helping major networks capture demand and cut call abandonment by 90%. Proud to launch with @ycombinator today

I kept seeing @tomasmithmusic tweet about this and thought I’ve got time to sort getting that. Luckily I just saw this tweet as a final reminder and realised I was running out of time. Just purchased and I reckon this will be one to treasure for a long while yet 😎 Get on it 🔥
This is Revolution a demo available on Demos Vol 2 for 14 more hours and then it’s gone serenade.co/@tomasmithmusic/…

Proud that @tomasmithmusic, the very first artist using our 'limited time' feature (where an unlimited number of digital pressings can be bought for a limited time only) has just had sales surpass 100, grossing £1000 from a collection of demo recordings.

As an emerging artist, it's not easy to commercialise your work, but when you create something of value, there are fans out there willing to pay for it. Excited to roll this feature out more broadly over the weeks to come.

New review @tomasmithmusic Demos Vol 1 (Collection). Limited to 50 copies and excellent. "there is something precious about being in on something early, and smugly holding some rare coveted nuggets that others would kill for" oldmanblues.com/2023/08/18/t…

"The stepson of the missing billionaire Hamish Harding shared a snap of himself posing outside a Blink-182 concert in a now-deleted Facebook post, writing that his family "would want him" to attend the show" - who can blame him hellomagazine.com/film/49598…

Andrew Penhallow brought Factory Records to Australia, and championed the careers of Australian heroes Severed Heads, Boxcar and Single Gun Theory, all through his label Volition that set the tone for the electronic dance scene to come. He was a kind man and did it for the music.

If someone would care to share details of his funeral, that would be much appreciated. I hope you enjoy this shot of Andrew in his Alexandria warehouse back in 2020. Thanks @larsbrandle for this obituary themusicnetwork.com/andrew-p…

Another shot I took that gives a sense of the world of music Andrew remained submerged in throughout his life

"As a @museband superfan...this announcement was highly motivating and left Quiriana so excited that they “couldn’t sleep for months.” For Quiriana, there was never a question of whether they would buy a Muse NFT, only how." waterandmusic.com/music-web3…

Thanks @sydmusic, found this refreshing/revealing/informative.
What could go *possibly* go wrong when Creatives start to equate their self-worth with selling out? Here’s my inner dialogue as my @soundxyz_ drop “failed” to sell out asap (as they did during the bull). Sharing to illustrate what I think might be happening in the space overall

Am I late or did everyone else just discover the Matrix Reloaded soundtrack?
