Shogun Audio announces Full Thought publishing deal
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 10 March 2014
Electronic music label Shogun Audio – best known for its origins in drum n bass – has announced a new deal that will see its publishing catalogue managed by Full Thought, the publishing company of the Tru Thoughts label. Owned by Radio 1 DJ Friction and Keir Tyrer, Shogun’s catalogue includes over 700 song copyrights.
Tyrer told CMU: “We’re delighted about this new partnership with Full Thought Publishing who have a proven track record and a global network that will allow us to connect with whole new territories. Having worked with [Full Thought and Tru Thoughts boss] Robert Luis and the team over the last few years I’m confident that they have fully understand our vision and ambition and I’m extremely pleased to collaborate in a way that will grow the publishing opportunities not only for sync but across creative and production capacities for all of our artists”.
Luis added: “Having been playing their records for a number of years I am really excited to be working with the SA catalogue in a more pro-active way. Although known by many for their dnb releases their artists make and create all styles of music with an emphasis on forward thinking beats, basslines and production. Having heard some of their forthcoming releases it’s very exciting to be able to help push their music to all new audiences around the world”.
