"Having been an active publisher for 40 years, we know how to best create value for an artist's copyrights. There is nothing more potent than making the artist themselves successful. This generates mechanicals, performance royalties and often puts the artist in a room with other artists to create co-writes that optimize song exposure. In addition, we pursue sync placements and other commercial usage of material where appropriate. The most important factor in a publisher/writer relationship is getting the personal attention to provide direction and guidance.
"We have worked with Bug Music since 1995 as the worldwide administrator of our catalogues and have developed a terrific relationship with the tremendously passionate mid-sized international operation. Bug's film and TV department works in concert with our film and TV master placement partner Sugaroo! to maximize our exposure for song placements. In the US we work closely Bug's offices in LA, New York and Nashville creating co-writing opportunities with our writers, often as they tour the country.
"A true partner, we often co-publish with Bug through our UFO sister publishing co. Rogues Writers Circle - working with a select group of artists and giving them our full-court treatment. Our relationship with Bug allows us to offer artist co-publishing deals or simply set up administration deals for clients' own companies. Like everything at UFO, there is a menu of flexible methodology to serve the clients' needs."
