Last year’s BRIT-winning Producer Of The Year Markus Dravs has launched a new production and publishing company to be called Casa-D, and has confirmed a deal with Kobalt which will handle copyright administration and provide creative and sync services to the new firm.

Introducing his new company, Dravs told CMU: “The idea behind Casa-D Productions is to form a creative hub, from which I can collaborate with other musicians, top line writers and lyricists to write and/or produce new songs both for other artists and for release ourselves via Casa-D. Having discussed the principles and ideas with Sas Metcalfe, I am extremely flattered to have been offered the opportunity to be supported by Kobalt”.

Kobalt’s Sas Metcalfe added: “Already one of the most respected producers in the world, Markus is now adding a songwriting aspect to his role along with developing his own publishing company. We’re really looking forward to working with him on both levels and are excited about what talents he will bring to Kobalt in the future”.

The next big release on which Dravs has worked is Coldplay’s fifth album ‘Mylo Xyloto’, out next month, while he is currently in the studio with Mumford & Sons working on their second long player.
