This year’s New Music Seminar in New York wrapped after a series of panels which included “The Creative Conundrum,” about increasing your odds with radical differentiation with Just Blaze and “The Breaks” with Swizz Beatz and Vinnie “vin-Rock” Brown of Naughty By Nature. The original Seminars were staged from 1980 to 1995 and were revived by Silverman and partner Tom Lory after a hiatus and a LA version of the event earlier this year.
After the success of this years sold out seminar I think it’s certain that, Tom Silverman, founder of Tommy Boy Records, has most definitely brought his legendary New Music Seminar event back to New York City.
Watch some video clips from the seminar below:
