Recent signings indicative of increased focus on digital exposure
Newly launched ONE Digital distribution division continues rapid expansion with key new clients signing on for digital distribution service
SAN FRANCISCO, June 5 /PRNewswire/ -- INgrooves announced today several new content agreements with leading artists and independent labels including: Perfecto Records (Paul Oakenfold), Grammy award winning Los Tigres Del Norte, bluhammock music (Cary Brothers, Speech, Swati), Coalition Media Group (breakout hip hop artist, Ya Boy) along with world renowned cellist Zoe Keating (formerly of Rasputina) and ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro. These recent signings represent a striking increase in the amount and quality of artists and labels moving from the traditional distribution relationships prevalent in the physical world to the more flexible digital structure that INgrooves offers.
INgrooves has certainly been on a roll with recent high profile releases from the likes of Tila Tequila, Too$hort and Tracy Lawrence. Major artists and frontline labels are drawn to INgrooves' combination of an extremely efficient distribution platform (ONE Digital) and targeted marketing services.
For Paul Oakenfold and his Perfecto Records imprint, it was an obvious fit. "We were looking for a digital partner that had the experience and technology to take us to the next level in the digital world," commented Mr. Oakenfold. "INgrooves' knowledge and ability to execute successfully, especially in the dance/electronic genre, is unparalleled and is a perfect match for where I want to take Perfecto Records."
INgrooves also took the opportunity to announce new signings to its ONE Digital distribution division, its cost effective solution for large labels and physical distribution companies who want to use the platform as their backend for all digital distribution and royalty administration. VP Records, Odessa Mama and MRC (UK) have recently signed up to use INgrooves' ONE Digital platform at rates as low as $1 per song per year and 1% of sales. Olivier Chastan, Head of Marketing at VP Records commented, "We were looking at rationalizing our digital distribution and effectively spend more time marketing than ingesting content. ONE Digital offered the right solution."
"INgrooves and ONE Digital are extremely excited to be working with such exemplary artists and labels," commented Robb McDaniels, INgrooves' Chairman & CEO. "While we continue to enhance the functionality of our platform and increase the number of digital retailers, the ultimate success of INgrooves and ONE Digital will be due to the great music and video flowing though the company on a daily basis."
