A bold new player has entered the music publishing game after Purple Fly Records launched a new venture, aiming to leverage the independent label’s expansive catalog to reshape opportunities for electronic music creators.
The label’s new publishing house, EDM Publishing, enters the market with an impressive catalog of thousands of tracks, spanning from commercial dance-pop to underground techno and trance.
It already features an impressive lineup of established producers, including Klaas, Sickick, Chris Burke and Damon Sharpe as well as top singer-songwriters like Aloe Blacc, Sophie Simmons, Cammie Robinson and Christina Novelli. Collectively, the works represented by the company have generated over one billion streams.
EDM Publishing aims to create expanded opportunities for electronic music artists through sync, licensing and strategic partnership initiatives. In a significant early win, the company’s proprietors have secured a music licensing agreement with MTV, positioning it for rapid growth and increased visibility across major media channels.
Purple Fly Records first gained attention in the EDM space for utilizing cryptocurrency and NFTs to support artists and releases, launching in 2021 with a blockchain-based approach that allowed musicians to monetize their work in innovative ways. The label has since released music by a slew of notable artists in the scene, like Laidback Luke, Gammer, DJ Diesel (Shaquille O’Neal) and the late Fatman Scoop.
With the established infrastructure of Purple Fly behind it, EDM Publishing appears well-positioned to become a significant player in the electronic music publishing sector. According to a press release, the company is seeking out artists and brands in the electronic music community, signaling an aggressive growth strategy in the months ahead.
