The $180 million mystery that destroyed lives and reshaped music forever.
It’s the new millennium and music is facing an existential threat: illegal piracy. In Red Flag: Music’s Failed Revolution Walkley Award-winning journalist Marc Fennell (The Kingdom, Framed, The Mission) uncovers the bizarre story of the Aussie start up, Guvera, that promised to revolutionise music forever, but instead vanished in a $180 million mystery. The two-part blackly comic docuseries premieres at 8.35pm Tuesday, 15 October on SBS and SBS On Demand.
Red Flag: Music’s Failed Revolution charts the spectacular rise and fall of Guvera - the Gold Coast tech start-up that challenged Spotify and was nicknamed the “iTunes Killer”- which once had A-list superstars like Alice Cooper and Mos Def lining up behind it with one mission: to destroy internet piracy.
Marc is joined by iconic Australian musician Ben Lee as they take a nostalgic trip to the 90s, the golden age, before piracy threatened to take down the multi-billion-dollar music industry. With candid interviews with former Guvera staff, devastated investors, music industry experts, and behind the scenes footage, the documentary delves into the darker side of the start-up and a “fake-it-till-you-make-it" story.
