Another on-demand streaming service, French based Deezer, has announced a licensing deal with indie digital distributor finetunes, making, among other things, music from labels like Record Makers, Cocoon Recordings and Honest Jon’s available to the digital platform.
Confirming the deal, finetunes’ Head of Legal And Business Affairs Tom Guenther told reporters: “We are very happy to have signed an agreement with Deezer, which represents not only one of the coolest but crucially a fully legal streaming service, which is not a matter of course these days”.
Deezer founders Jonathan Benassaya and Daniel Marhely said this: “We are delighted to announce this agreement. finetunes is a pre-eminent distribution partner for music platforms like ours. finetunes’ know-how, and the diversity and quality of its catalogue, especially in the electronic genre, enables Deezer to improve its offer”.
