14 DAY TRIAL // The London iTunes Festival opened Monday night at the Roundhouse and the world tuned in to watch the live show. The performances can be watched live via Apple TV, iPad and iPhone in Full HD streaming and the quality is amazing. What do you do if the times are not good for you, cause it's not like you can DVR them? Well, Apple has found a way to offer everything for free, via iTunes.
On the first night of the show, the stage belonged to deadmau5. But before the famous Canadian DJ and producer showed up, we've seen other performers too: Friend Within, Kate Simko and the London Electronic Orchestra.
Apple now has a special page for each of the performing artists. You will see a brief description of their music, a short bio, links to their latest albums and tracks, photos, links to iTunes Radio to hear the live performances and, of course, a video recording of their show. For deadmau5 you will be able to see a separate recording with his most popular tracks.
Kate Simko is the leader of London Electronic Orchestra and she combines jazz, classical music and modern beats. She has written music for film and TV and last night she performed in front of millions of viewers worldwide.
On her special iTunes Festival page, you will see a link to her latest EP, "Lost in London" and nine other Albums and EPs, some nice high-resolution photos from last night and listen to previews of Kate's most downloaded songs. Most importantly, you can view the 32-minute show for free. This will eventually become a paid video so you might as well watch it now.
Another special page was created for Friend Within, a British producer that took the electro stage by storm last year. The most important performance of the night was by deadmau5. The Canadian DJ, producer, and dance music phenomenon Joel Zimmerman was electrifying. He was the first big name to open the iTunes London Festival. On his iTunes page, you can now watch 3 featured videos, check out the photos and find links to almost 90 EPs and albums he released so far.
