The Deals: Virgin to Distribute Partisan Records, SoundExchange Signs Neighboring Rights Pact in South Africa
Virgin Music Group will distribute Partisan Records and more music deals also involving SoundExchange, Live Nation, Oasis and Warner Music Group.
“This agreement is a result of SoundExchange’s efforts to ensure American creators are treated the same as their South African counterparts in the country,” states a press release on the deal. As part of the agreement, Ostereo founder Howard Murphy will exit the company to focus on a new venture, leaving his longtime partners, Ramin Bostan and Nick Kirby, to oversee day-to-day operations. FUGA will provide MOAG with its suite of comprehensive services, including digital and physical distribution, synch and licensing opportunities and advanced data analytics.
