Podcast created for DePaul's JOUR 278 class covering issues related to environmentally fashion habits and pop punk/emo music in Chicago.
In a roughly $30 million deal, California-based Concord Records bought out Chicago-based Victory Records. The deal brought to an end the independent legacy of the Victory Records label, which first popularized bands such as Taking Back Sunday and Hawthorne Heights in the mainstream industry. This podcast is an interview with DePaul University's Robert DiFazio, adjunct faculty of performance and arts management in the School of Music, where he speaks on the context of the deal in the bigger picture of the music industry on a city- and country-wide level.
