Music Publishing & Sync: Where to Start w/ Miller Williams, Senior VP Creative, Kobalt Music Publishing

  • Resumen

  • "The better the song, the more likely it is to get synced and the more people will listen to it."This episode’s guest is Miller Williams, Senior VP Creative at Kobalt Music Publishing. Miller’s role at Kobalt covers A&R, songwriter services, and catalogue acquisitions. He also works with their international agents and sub-publishers to exploit their songs and help their writers with co-write opportunities. Signings include Becky Hill, Milow, Jef Martens, Houston Comma publishing, Carla Monroe, AJ Tracy, Martin Sjolie, and Alex Clare. Williams has also held similar A&R and/or creative positions at Sony ATV UK, BMG Records UK, PWL Records UK, and Terrace Music (Nashville). In this episode, Miller talks about going from zero to hero, getting synchs and how things work when you are writing and pitching songs to K-Pop and J-Pop artists. They also get into how things are working in Africa these days and of course how Miller made it into the music ecosystem to start with.Kobalt is one of the most successful independent companies for music publishing, label services and rights management. In his role as Senior Vice President of Creative there, Miller works across A&R, collaborations and music marketing. "Yeah! Usually what I find is that if you scratch beneath the surface, the artists who have become successful have done a ton of work behind the scenes that no one has known about. I don’t think there’s any shortcut to success. Lil Nas X did become famous quite quickly through TikTok, but he’s proven that he can write hit after hit which is another important thing - longevity. That’s a real skill to be able to keep going and reinvent yourself."#HowWeListen Live: In Conversation00:10 - Byta.com02:06 - Kobalt6:15 - Belmont College6:20 - PWL6:22 - Global Talent Publishing8:45 - BIMM & ICMP10:18 - Berklee Music12:12 - Orbital16:55 - MP3s and downloads23:00 - NTFs27:35 - Japan30:27 - Katie Gregson36:13 - Vaccines38:40 - Justin Bieber finds Omah Lay41:44 - Ultra Records44:10 - Adapter45:42 - Ive released “Love Dive” 48:34 - emPawa Africa49:09 - Chioma Onuchukwu.51:24 - WizKiz, BurnaBoy, Mr Eazi, Tems52:37 - SAMRO53:00 - Sheer Music 53:42 - SOCAN54:33 - Sentric Music55:48 - Artist Journey58:24 - PRS (Performing Right Society), MCPS (collects and distributes mechanical royalties to songwriters, composers and publishers) 1:01:43 - Corinne Bailey Rae, Like a Star, “Put Your Records On”1:05:57 - Byta.com Music by Fin Productions and Oliver Lyu Episode Credits:Artwork by Jen PmphreyHosted by Marc BrownSeries coordinated by Jamie FordProduced and edited by Colin MacKenzieMusic by Fin Productions and Oliver Lyu
