Description:

On this episode we received the visit of Alex Awad (Licensing Manager at FUGA), and friend of the house and one of the most prolific minds in the Music Publishing industry in UK. With a proven-track record in remarkable companies ranging from MusicBird AG to Utopia Music, Alex helped us to navigate and understand some of the key elements of Money-Flow in TV & Radio as well as the always fascinating and complicated world of AI-Generated Music. The connectivity between PRO’s, estimating the value of plays in digital and traditional channels and creative uses of preliminary phonograms in AI-Generated Music are some of the topics we addressed in this conversation.
