WHAT I DO

  • I help bands sell their music (e.g. publishing, licensing, distribution, sync, ticketing, etc.)
  • I help promote bands to new audiences (e.g. journalist, PR agent, media, etc.)
  • I help bands develop their careers (e.g. A&R, producer, manager, etc.)

I work closely with bands to help them navigate the various aspects of the music industry. This includes assisting with the commercial side of their music, such as publishing, licensing, distribution & sync opportunities. I also focus on promoting their music and growing their fanbase by connecting with Indonesian journalists, PR agents, and media outlets to increase visibility. In addition, I support their artistic development by providing A&R guidance, production input, and career management. Finally, I’m always on the lookout for great songs that could be a perfect fit for our artists to perform and record.
