The digital revolution has been televised. It is now widely accepted that digital distribution will become the preferred method of consuming music for the majority of people worldwide.

- Analysis of the elements to a hit song based on technology that delivers it
- A history of technology’s involvement in past hits
- How playing into new technologies can result in higher royalties

There has never been any detailed analysis to what this all means for the music creation process, until now.  Future Hit.DNA delivers inside tricks from both the music listener and music industry perspective, resulting in advantages in those songs becomig hits.

This insight will give it’s readers a leg up over the competition, making the book an essential read for anyone involved on the creation of music.

Before joining CMT, Frank managed music programming along with artist and label relations for Yahoo! Music from 2001 until 2007 where he was a key player in helping grow the audience tenfold to approximately 25 million people.

His ability to find hits early on led to Yahoo! Music becoming instrumental in breaking many acts in their early stages and becoming a leading indicator of the future success for an artist.
