Since 20 years our international consulting network is represented at MIDEM, the international music business convention in Cannes (France) with an own stand. For the first time we won’t do MIDEM, as the event was cancelled due to Corona. Neither our annual MusiConsult Dinner in Antibes ….aka “The Duck Dinner”. That’s a real tough one …🙁

Unfortunately Corona has put the entire touring operation of our artist clients on halt. Sepultura, Les Tambours du Bronx, Moonspell, Northtale and other Artists represented by our network have to reschedule all 2020 tours. We are presently reviewing alternative income sources for our clients.

Moonspell is a recognizable Metal band from Portugal, formed in 1992, with a long history of successful releases and even international chart entries. We are handling certain business affairs for this client.

Our office is handling the sale of an extensive catalogue from Southern Europe (including repertoire from Africa, Brazil, Jazz et al) , 27.000 recordings in total, never been released digitally. Contracts, chain of title, parts perfectly organized. Inquiries must have full contact details, and can be addressed to international using our contact form.

Recently formed power Metal Band NorthTale, founded by Bill Hudson and Christian Eriksson, will be releasing their first album in Summer 2019. MusiConsult Network is accompanying their international business affairs, in order to establish a solid structure for their international agreements and copyrights.

The brazilian Metal Band SEPULTURA have been active for over three decades, but now they put their skills and their knowledge in two good wines. Together with MusiConsult, the business management of the band, the Portuguese wine producers Roquevale and the dutch importers Drankgigant, they created a full-bodied, powerful red wine and a pleasant and playful white wine, which are going to dance on the tongues of every wine enthusiast. But whoever thinks that this is just another gimmick by a legend… they couldn’t be more wrong! SEPULTURA not only emphasize quality in their music and the details, but also took care of the best grapes for their wine. They aged in the Region Alentejo, a Portuguese vineyard that is well-known for its hot temperatures and low settlement. Also, in the production they don’t do things by half – handcraft is the key to the point. The wine isn’t only an eye-catcher, but also a must-taste that is not a product of any industry. Of course, there where only used organic ingredients and no chemicals at all

MusiConsult Network will be present at Midem 2018,  for the 20th time, with an own stand.

Jointly with us are our network partners and our deal clients : SyVy publishing, Favored Nations and Soundfeed
