- UM enjoys a number of subpublishing deals with major independent publishers.
The agreement with Global Talent Publishing, for example, includes works from the singer songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae. Corinne recently had a number one album in the UK and is a worldwide priority for EMI Records.

For some clients we were able to either provide new income by tracing previously unpaid uses while for other we created new opportunities of income or trace income of songs used locally. (Read more)

- UM continued to give consultancy to some client as it was the case to the Number One independent Brazilian record company Indie, and recently we signed such consulting agreement with the writer of what was probably the most important song in the market in 2006 (Sorte Grande - AKA Poeira by Artist Ivete Sangalo / Univ. Rec.). We now represent Lourenço and his catalogue (LOS) worldwide (which include this top song as well as major Latin successes in the US by Alexandre Pires).

For our Brazilian writer and publishing clients we are lucky to count with the Budde Music sturcture to represent the catalogue in most worldwide territories




- Unlimited offers the best knowledge in general music industry questions and in Publishing for the Latin American Region and is the best positionned to evaluate catalogue acquisitions.

New Income / Brazilian Specificity

Brazil is a very musical country, which provides many opportunities for music publishers and record companies.

The most popular TV programmes, the “novellas” (soap opera), make great use of music and create significant synchronisation income. Local music accounts for over 70% of the market however there are many uses of cover versions of international works.
New income such as ring tones has become very important for writers and publishers. There are more than 90 millions portable phones users. The most successful paid download, a local version of an intl pop song hit, enjoyed more than 6 millions paid ring tones Broadband is still limited and there is only one company offering legal downloads however the expected high growth in broadband should expand opportunities for the market entry of more download companies. Hot Spot Wifi network are growing too.
Although Brazil is a developing country there are already a great number of MP3 players despite the high costs due to import duties. The traditional market of CD and DVD is stable although piracy is still at very high levels. The industry figures do not include the recent important growth of independent record companies.

The Brazilian music publishing industry does have a number of issues:

• The lack of a current industry agreement between record companies and publishers
• Low mechanical rates paid on DVDs
• Inability to audit record companies
• Over complicated public performance structure with some societies.

Those peculiarities and issues make it even more important to have a sub publisher in the country that has the ability and takes the time to work actively the original publisher’s catalogue.

Marco Antonio Solís

We are especially proud to inform that we were able to push the creation of local covers of songs by Latin (Spanish) writer and artist Marco Antonio Solís which resulted in three new great versions and became important recordings inclusive one of the local best seller album. On of those version was first recorded by Bruno & Marrone (Sony/Bmg) on their last studio album, which sold above 1 million units sold and later rerecorded on their first live DVD & CD (as well as sung on their constant Brazilian Tour in front of millions of Brazilians around the country). The two other version from the same writer, were recorded by top EMI artist Roberta Miranda. One was recorded on her last album and versioned by Roberta herself, and the other one on her album to be release soon versioned by Claudio Rabello a top local versionist). Back to top page.
