Further re Publishing deal with Ian Levine
Composition Publishing Catalogue of over 120 tracks
One Media iP Group Plc (AIM: OMIP), the digital music rights
acquirer, publisher and distributor, is pleased to announce that
further to the announcements of 18 January 2021 and 7 June 2021,
for a modest consideration it has exclusively signed a further deal
on the composition rights to the music composed and produced by Ian
Levine including a new recording deal Levine has made with
multimillion selling artist Evelyn Thomas.
Evelyn Thomas has recorded many Levine productions over the
years including the number one hit 'High Energy' charting in the UK
in 1984. Evelyn Thomas and Ian Levine are again collaborating on
three new recordings. "Pounding the Street", "Isolation" and "One
Less Angel" are all due to be released before Christmas.2021. This
is the first time Levine and Thomas have collaborated on music
together in 33 years. One Media represents both Levine and Thomas
on the publishing to the new tracks.
Announced on 18 January 2021, One Media acquired the producer
royalties of the hits 'A Million Love Songs', 'Could It Be Magic'
and 'I Found Heaven', all from Take That's 1992 debut studio album,
Take That & Party, which has been certified two-times platinum
in the UK. One Media acquired the producer rights to Take That from
producer Ian Levine. Levine a prolific writer and producer in the
Motor City and Northern Soul genre having recorded over 2,300 songs
in his career spanning 50 years. The Company already has control of
the master recordings to Levine's recording catalogue and markets
them to over 600 digital stores globally.
The agreement sees One Media exclusively representing the
collection and administration of Levine's publishing income to over
120 musical copyrights from a variety of artists for life of
copyright.
Other artists from within the catalogue of over 120 tracks
performing in the Levine Northern Soul publishing catalogue are:
Candi Staton, Sidney Barnes, Jimmy James, The Four Vandals, Angelo
Starr, The Flirtations, Tammi Lavette, Jay Harvey, Tahira Jumah,
and Lorraine Silver all Northern Soul legends in their own
right,
The acquisition is in line with management's expectations and
the Company's business plan.
Michael Infante, CEO of One Media iP said: "Ian continues to
push the boundaries of Northern Soul and High NrG and to see him
and Evelyn Thomas back in the studio is like seeing Weller get back
with the Jam in Northern Soul circles. Evelyn Thomas has such style
and the new tracks will no doubt be dance floor fillers in the
Northern Soul world. Whilst One Media is not a promoter of new
music, being given the opportunity to pick up this back catalogue
and to have an interest moving forward from the Levine camp of
publishing is right in our sweet spot."
The person who arranged the release of this information is
Michael Infante, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
