“Over the last two decades working as an executive in the music business, Alex has developed a unique set of skills that deliver value to rights holders”, says Beatport CEO Robb McDaniels. “As the leader of our newly formed Music Services business unit, Alex will curate and expand the Beatport Pro Suite of SaaS tools to help independent content owners increase revenue and exposure in the global DJ market”.
