The Art of Creative Reinvention
Conference
The Art of Creative Reinvention
Speakers: Don Diablo (Artist), Laidback Luke (Artist)
Moderator: Lorne Padman (President, Dim Mak Records)
Any artist who has (or desires) a long career is highly likely to want to take a different musical or creative direction at some point, which is inherently dangerous in terms of how their army of fans will react, but equally, it is, after all, what being an artist is all about. How do they deal with the risks involved in reinventing themselves or shifting their musical direction or genre? Emerging technologies are also constantly reshaping the music experience, and Don Diablo + Laidback Luke discuss the dynamic intersection of immersive technology and artistic evolution, sharing experiences of how they've navigated their own reinventions, offering practical advice on preparing fans for new directions, such as through teaser content, behind-the-scenes insights, and engaging storytelling. The importance of transparency with fans, explaining their motivations for change and how it aligns with their artistic growth are also on the agenda.
