There already seems to have been a major move away from the traditional ‘press’ in terms of writing about, and reviewing, music (and jazz in particular).
In recent years, much had moved to blogs (such as Marlbank and Londonjazznews). But Ethan Iverson, writer of the blog Do The Math, thinks that things have moved towards social media, in a recent interview with Marlbank (https://www.marlbank.net/posts/210722-ethan-iverson-interview-previewing-his-vortex-trio-gig-and-ahead-of-his-cornish-rhapsody-in-blue)
Is this true? If so, what does it mean for getting people to hear the music and judging what they should hear?
