Bucks Music last week confirmed a new deal which will see it provide publishing admin services in the UK and Ireland for German independent ROBA Music Publishing.
Hamburg-based ROBA works with artists, composers and producers, as well as record labels, film studios, broadcasters and brands, including artists like Sven Väth, Scooter, ATB, Ben Böhmer and Avec, and labels including Summerfield, Place Called Home and Soave.
Confirming the tie up with Bucks in the UK and Ireland, the company's MD Christian Baierle says: “We are excited to be working with Bucks Music Group. Simon and the Bucks team have already been in close contact with our A&R and admin staff, and it is great to see how dedicated they are".
"Choosing the right partners is essential as we continually enhance the international footprint for ROBA", he goes on. "Our new association will bring even more benefits to our songwriters and producers, and we look forward to a long-term, fruitful relationship. We could not be in better hands, and look forward to our teams doing some amazing things together".
Bucks A&R James Paterson adds: “ROBA is one of the most respected names in German music, with its reputation extending across Europe and beyond. It’s a privilege to be entrusted with its catalogue of great works from a diverse roster of composers, artists, producers, publishers, labels, production companies and more".
