After signing deals with the three majors and hundreds of independents, live streaming platform Twitch has announced a new program that allows DJs to use copyrighted music in their streams. To do so, streamers will pay rights holders a percentage of their earnings from the stream, though Twitch has said that it will cover 50% of the cost. 

Announcing their new leadership team, CAA has appointed three co-heads of their global touring division: Darryl Eaton, Emma Banks, and Rick Roskin. 

Electronic festival Tomorrowland has teamed up with Afrojack to design a series of online education courses on music production. Dubbed WALL Pro Academy, the program will help DJs enhance their skills in the studio by offering tutorials and advice on producing, mixing, mastering, and brand development.
