BMG to rep full Chemical Brothers songs catalogue
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 17 August 2023
BMG has extended its partnership with The Chemical Brothers and will now represent the duo’s entire songs catalogue. The new deal comes ahead of the release of the tenth Chemical Brothers album ‘For That Beautiful Feeling’ next month.
The previous relationship between BMG and The Chemical Brothers began in 2015 and covered the publishing on their new material, including that year’s album ‘Born In The Echoes’. Under the expanded arrangement, BMG will now also rep the song rights in the duo’s first seven albums.
Confirming that, BMG SVP Publishing UK Hugo Turquet says: “The Chemical Brothers are among the most successful, influential and best loved electronic dance music artists the UK has ever produced. To progress from a futures deal to winning the opportunity to represent their entire body of work is a significant vote of confidence and we look forward to justifying their faith in us”.
Long-time Chemical Brothers manager Robert Linney adds: “This is a significant year for The Chemical Brothers with a new album coming and substantial live activity both at festivals and with a UK arena tour. BMG are very proactive and we get the attention we need. We are delighted to further extend our relationship with BMG”.
