And finally, Phase One market scoping grants have been allocated to Arch Hill Recordings, Die! Die! Die!, Mai Music, Midium Records and Tardus Music.
Between the nine successful applicants a total of $150,631.55 has been allocated, with the recipients required to match this on a dollar-for-dollar basis
