MUSIC PRO AWARDS
​BRAZIL

Singular and unique, the Music Pro Awards was envisioned with the aim of acknowledging the contribution of the professionals involved in the creation and development of musical and audiovisual projects. Also, to disseminate their musical legacy and develop our music market as a whole.
The MPA 2019 will welcome, in our home city of Brasília, the national and international music professionals who take part in this pioneering initiative, in order to appraise those involved in the creation, production and commercialization of music, both in its digital and physical forms.

During the week of the event, we will present the participants with an extensive program, consisting of: the opening ceremony, a welcome party, eight workshops, the award night ceremony (subdivided into categories: Creation, Production and Convergence), six pocket-shows and ten showcases ­ two of which will be international attractions and eight national acts.
​
The event will host the screening of music documentaries, a photo exhibition focusing on our guests of honor, and a space dedicated to networking and business meetings ­ on the beautiful premises of the Pier 21 Shopping Center, nearby the lakeshore in Brasília, Brazil’s capital city.

US/International Publishing and Licensing 
Affiliation with ASCAP or BMI is a great start, but unfortunately it’s not enough. These two collection societies only collect one type of publishing royalty, called performance royalties, and they only collect for the U.S.A.   

The MUSIC SPECIALIST works with collection societies all around the world – over 60 countries and counting. Most importantly, we register your songs with both performance and mechanical collection societies to collect all royalty types. 

You may be famous in Australia and don’t even know it!

Performer’s Right to Public Performance Royalties

Whether you are a featured artist, session musician (including remixers), or performing producer, if any tracks that you have performed on are broadcast on the radio or played in public, subject to qualifying rules laid down by phonographic performance collection societies, you are entitled to (public performance) royalties from the broadcast plays of your recorded performances (also known as “Neighbouring Rights” outside of the UK).

Regarding US resident performers and Neighbouring Rights: Unless the performers have performed on recordings made outside the USA there are limited rights available.

​AL CRESPO
Surprising, versatile, big and full of energy – that’s AL CRESPO, a singer and producer from Berlin with Ecuadorian roots, right from the middle of the earth. His music, which is self-written and self-composed, is a fusion of Pop(art), Electro and that certain funky feeling.
After collaborating with music industry legends like Herman Rarebell (Scorpions) and Bobby Kimball (Toto) releases AL CRESPO his new singles. Having been multiple years as a Hard Rock front man, playing innumerable concerts on many different stages worldwide, this wholehearted performer feels very attracted to the possibilities of this New Era of electronic music. The combination of real instruments and high-end electronic sounds pushes forward the creativity. “I really love to experiment with different stylistic agents in my music. This way every song comes fresh to the ears and it never gets boring, either for the audience nor for me. Besides I’m extremely thrilled about the idea of not only entertaining the audience on live concert stages, but also in discos and clubs.”
Brand new EDM material is waiting to be launched: Maniac On The Floor, Make It Happen and On The Rocks.
