In this episode, Charlie Hooper-Williams - a critically-acclaimed composer, pianist & creative coder, and one of the developers behind music-identification app Shazam - joins us to discuss his journey as a composer and pianist, the impact of digital technology on the music industry, and the challenges and opportunities presented by streaming platforms.
