LEADING NEW

London based company Discovering Arts Music Group (D.A.M.G) is at the forefront of new music, signing and dis-covering talent early in their careers.

D.A.M.G prides it-self on nurturing young talent and building acts through its armoury of resources. Utilising our creativity, passion for songs, client service, hosting exclusive events and global resources, we help develop those artists into global suc-cesses.

D.A.M.G provides a sin-gle home for artists, uti-lising eight core business arms to deliver new music to the masses, providing services in:

Publishing / Man-agement / Booking / Studio / Distribu-tion / Production / Events / Merchan-dising / Develop-

ment/ Fashion

D.A.M.G offers a central-isation of resources, ensur-ing artists have everything they need in one place in-stead of relying on numer-ous third party companies. We also provide advanced strategic marketing initia-tives and opportunities in new technologies, ensuring

that our developing art-ists are given all the latest tools and support essen-tial for launching their ca-reers. By taking care of the business and organ-isational elements, our artists can focus purely on the music.

Through adopting cut-ting edge methods and mould breaking concepts, D.A.M.G have set their sights on becoming one of the leading music companies in the world as well as setting the bar for next generation com-panies.

“Music Chose Us” is D.A.M.G’s event programme, which currently has two divisions; “Music Chose Us: Live” and “Music Chose Us: DJs.” Since 2013, Music Chose Us: Live has taken over big venues such as The Brixton Jamm’, King’s Cross Big Chill, 93 Feet East and Hoxton Bar & Grill, promoting future and current bands and singers, unrestricted by genre or reputation.

Showcasing the UK’s most promising and exciting local talent, “Music Chose Us: Live” selects its artists from hundreds of applicants, each vying for a record deal and ensuring the highest standard of entertainment.

D.A.M.G founder Elliot Avnon set up “Music Chose Us” to find the next “big thing.” He states that ‘“Music Chose Us” will offer the chosen act the opportunit to work with the best producers, songwriters and studios

the UK has to offer, aiming to release a full album via all platforms. We want to provide London’s audience with a star quality music experience.”

The inaugural event for “Music Chose Us” launched on the 27th of February 2013 and has received over-whelming attention from the press including The Fly, All In London, Guestlist, Artrocker, Music Week, Idol Mag, Loud & Quiet and DIY, not to mention The Daily Star.

“Music Chose Us: DJs” is the most recent event series to be created by D.A.M.G and looks to showcase genre defining DJs and producers in the electronic scene. Unlike “Music Chose Us: Live”, “DJs” aims to host nightclubs rather than live venues which tend to focus on singers and bands.

At D.A.M.G, we un-derstand how vital it is for our listeners to have easy and widespread access to our music. To achieve this, we use our in-house global network service to ensure our music is easily accessible, whilst we remain in full control of distribution.

D.A.M.G’s London headquarters is home to a state-of-the-art recording studio, the creative hub for the company’s most talent-ed songwriters, artists and producers. Inspired by the successes of small studios such as Motown’s Studio A, D.A.M.G run a studio where artists are able to actualise their ideas at the highest standard, being able to experiment away from the pressures of running up bills at commercial facilities.

The studio’s atmosphere encourages the creation of extraordinary music and the latest in digital recording technology, which has been put into practice by recording some of our artists we develop. Fol-lowing the completion of the studio, we have developed enough space for the live room, a private entrance for unloading equipment; and a lounge set up for relaxation and privacy. D.A.M.G studio has now seen an array of sessions, many of which have found their way out in to the world via releases on D.A.M.G recordings or other labels.
