In addition to the upcoming albums, MediaTracks is excited to include a selection of previously released albums in this category. These albums have been chosen for their ability to resonate with children and will be a valuable addition to the label's collection.

MediaTracks aims to change the way we consume and listen to music by focusing on the people behind the music (the composers), and to link the composers to the consumer - no matter who or where they are. We have a vision where our music is innovative, creative and of the highest quality written, performed by outstanding musicians for music-lovers, diverse and multigenerational audiences, filmmakers, but most importantly, for people who love and appreciate great music.

MediaTracks is an artist-centred record label, represented around the world by an impressive collection of sub-publishers.

MediaTracks believes in diversity, and therefore we support audiences and composers from a wide range of genres while making it easier for customers to find the music they need. We have five labels, each with a clear and unique focus and expert curator, where we produce high quality tracks covering choral and vocal, pop and dance, and world music

In MediaTracks we are committed to young talent, which is why we have built an apprenticeship programme designed to find, foster and develop musicians, in order to prepare the next generation of diverse composers for success. We do this while focusing on giving a voice to underrepresented minorities within the music industry.

New Partnership: MediaTracks Music and Kycker


We are thrilled to announce our newest partnership with a brilliant, unique, and exciting platform: Kycker. This partnership will allow us to: increase our distribution rates to all major platforms (sending around 10-15 albums per month!); have joint publicity efforts for these album launches; have a quick and efficient route to market; and have access to a detailed and complete analytics system that will facilitate finding the right audiences for our composers and tracks, among other benefits.

This also opens a world of opportunities to all Kycker artists and composers, who might be interested in the production music industry. We are talking especially about younger artists, who will be able to benefit from our growth and development programs such as the MT Apprentice Scheme. In MediaTracks we believe in the power of collaboration as a tool for building an inclusive and fairer music industry, and we could not be happier of welcoming Kycker on this journey.

Kycker is excited to partner with MediaTracks as we see this as a great opportunity, not only for our own clients but also to offer new opportunities to MediaTracks composers.

We see MediaTracks holds the same ethos as Kycker where we are both striving for our composers and artists to be financially sustainable and we believe that this partnership will only help artists achieve their goals.

"We are really excited by the opportunities this partnership will give to the students. Production music is a unique part of the music industry, and it is vital that we do our bit to encourage and support more creative talent to join the business." William Saunders, MT Creative Director

Leeds Conservatoire has a national and international reputation for creativity and innovation, and for being a truly contemporary specialist teaching institution. Its staff and industry partners are at the cutting edge of their creative disciplines, and its students are encouraged and supported to explore their individual artistic identities in an environment that is rich in diversity and free of aesthetic and stylistic limitations.

In line with the conservatoire’s commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, MediaTracks is committed to developing diverse talent through its collaborations and mentoring schemes, and seeks to promote music and artists currently underrepresented in the music industry.

To kickstart the partnership, Leeds Conservatoire and MediaTracks hosted the first Library Music Writing Camp at the conservatoire on Monday 24 and Tuesday 25 October. This practical, two-day event was open to current students across all courses at the conservatoire and recent graduates. Attendees explored the skills required to succeed in this growing part of the music industry, and put these skills to the test in collaborative writing sessions. Mentors provided input and support throughout the writing sessions, and as the camp drew to a close attendees were invited to share their works in progress and reflect on their experience.
