Who did Charli XCX mean by “Girl So Confusing”? In which Beatles song is a guitar solo played backwards? And what did Bill Kaulitz had his first TV appearance 22 years ago?
Music nerd, quiz fans and a full hall in Kreuzberg
Almost all of these three questions were able to answer in the first pop quiz from Rolling Stone, “Musikexpress” and “Metal Hamme” R. Advice, which one?
“Quiz & Shout” is the name of the new live format for music nerds and Just-for-Fun Quizzzer, which celebrated its premiere on Wednesday evening in the “Wiener Blood” in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Runned by Mediahouse Berlin, in which the three leading music brands appear, supported by Kruger Media. The heads of the approximately 120 guests smoked for two hours. It was important to answer 41 questions in three rounds, quickly and cool via smartphone. And it quickly became clear that it is not so important how much someone priests, Bruce Springsteen or Nina Chuba on Judas, or in which big city Techno was invented and what the rap star Xatar was called with a bourgeois name. There is everything – stupid saying, and he is right. Because none had to participate. Some simply had fun watching and listening. And “fun” was the word of the evening at all, according to a semi -representative flash survey, it had almost all.
On the canvases, the placements of the 61 rate assasses changed in real time and with cheering and applause, answer to the answer, round by round. Casual commented on the long-standing Radioins moderators Silke Super and Torsten Groß. A little ESC feeling at nuts and beer, laughter and astonishment, chatting-and also some networking. No wonder when Rolling-Stone editor Sebastian Zabel meets Moritz Trapp, the head of the Universal Catalogue department or Youtube music director Gudrun Schweppe on Mediahouse Managing Director Michael Reiner.
Scene meets Business: From Apple Music to Dreamhaus
Scene and business meet at “Pop & Shout”, musicians and label managers, fire managers and creative people. Big and a little smaller. Apple Music and Napalm Records, Sony Music and Plastic in the Ear, Google and Cope, IFA and guest tours, Scholz & Friends and Selective Artists, Universal and Juumaokudo, Impericon and Perky Park, Dreamhaus and No Cut – to Name A FEW.
And now to the game report: About half of the show guests took part in the quiz. Incidentally, the pop knowledge of Mary Lou Hafner, who takes care of Artist Management and Development at BMG, admires very strongly and on the part of it. She loudly celebrated her 54 percent correct answers-and finally landed a bit unhappily in 4th place, on the same time with Marc Seemann, but somewhat poorer number of speed.
In the final round, the best three best of the first three rater lessons had to face the bosses of the Rolling Stone, Musikexpress and Metal. Result: The supposed music press professionals were disguised against the glorious three from the audience: Maks Giordano, Robert Levine and Marc Seemann. Marc, Director Strategy & Business Development at the Dreamhaus concert organizer, landed in third place and won a Marshall headphones. Rob, editor-at-Large at the Musikbiz platform Billboard, stormed in second place after a rapid catch-up (and got a Marshall Bluetooth box). The winner of the evening with 63% correct answers (and a Dussmann voucher) was in the end of Maks, who is not only a fowling music nerd, but also one of the leading experts for digital strategies and innovation management in life beyond quizza.
And here is the dissolution of the three questions from the beginning
The quiz party organized by Medianhouse Berlin with the support of Kruger-Media makes you want more. When “Quiz & Shout” goes into the next round, still unclear. Certainly, however, that you will find out here.
Oh yes, the dissolution of our questions from the beginning: Charli XCX addressed her song to her colleague Lorde, on “I’m only sleeping” George Harrison’s guitar solo can be heard backwards, and the question that 90 percent of the quizzz was able to answer correct Weather Girls.
