Adam Alpert launches alliance with Sony/ATV
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 2 October 2014
Hot on the heels of his alliance with Sony Music, Adam Alpert, manager of New York production duo The Chainsmokers, has announced a partnership with the major record company’s sister music publishing colossus Sony/ATV which will see the creation of Selector Songs, a publisher seeking songwriter talent in the pop and EDM genres. Sony/ATV already has a publishing deal in place with The Chainsmokers themselves.
Confirming the new business alliance, Sony/ATV boss man Marty Bandier told reporters: “Adam Alpert is a clued-up young businessman who has demonstrated with The Chainsmokers that he can turn his extensive knowledge of the dance music world into real commercial success. We at Sony/ATV are excited to now be partnering with him in this new venture and look forward to enjoying more hits together”.
Meanwhile Alpert added: “Selector Songs will be both a home for the most exciting and established producers, songwriters, and musicians as well as an incubator for the burgeoning talent of the future. Rounding out the one-stop shop of Disruptor Management and Disruptor Records, Selector Songs will focus on long-term artist development and modern recipes for success”.
