Cooking Vinyl Publishing (CVP) has entered into an agreement with Sync Music Ltd, a new publishing rights management company spearheaded by UK rapper Avelino.
Sync Music was formed with Avelino’s management team of Gautier Mukuna and Rowland Ashitey (More Music Records).
The collaboration will see Sync Music and Cooking Vinyl Publishing (CVP) work closely together on A&R and creative – with a particular focus of sync licensing – while CVP will handle all legal and administration duties.
Sync Music will have the flexibility to sign a range of deals with artists ranging from single-song assignments to traditional exclusive publishing agreements.
Avelino is the first artist signed to the new company.
Cooking Vinyl’s relationship with Avelino started in 2017 when the company represented his master sync rights, securing placements with brands such as EA Games and a bespoke JUNKIE XL remix on the Tomb Raider: Lara Croft video game.
Other brand campaigns have included LYNX, True Religion, Manchester United FC and Netflix.
“Our shared strategic vision for the future will help create opportunities for all writers by helping expose their music to new audiences – the possibilities are endless.”
