(Hi Diana!!!) > A friend who is off list is thinking of going to either.
MIDEM: Looks like WMC Europe (bad) to me (http://www.midem.com/) MIDEM: Is in Cannes (good), but in late January (brrrrr) Sonar: Doesn't look or feel like WMC (good) Sonar: Is in Barcelona (better), and in mid June (ahhhhhh) I know which one I'd choose. (Hint: I've been to Sonar twice, MIDEM nonce) :-) > They want to go to something not as "industry" as WMC-more music based > but still enough to where they can meet and talk to labels in Europe. This is the only unknown factor, I suspect this is "better" at MIDEM for this kind of thing, but I do know that some smaller labels are represented at Sonar. But, fuggit. If she/he wants to go to something not as "industry" as WMC, either one would fit the bill. However, if she/he wants to go to something truly amazing and radz0 in an incredible setting, it's Sonar all the way. :-) Only 7 months 'til Sonar 2001, - Greg
