Amuse Introduces New Sync Department to Develop Licensed Music

Sync placements can be career-makers for artists—opening an avenue for new fans to discover their music, offering new revenue streams, and creating a launchpad for future releases. Adding in-house Sync to its arsenal of services for the growing self-releasing and independent artist sector, Amuse welcomes Daniel Copleston as Head of Synchronisation.

Powered by streaming data, Amuse provides a modern alternative to the traditional industry model. Characterized by its one-stop-shop offering for independent artists and managements, Amuse’s open digital distribution service is complemented by a suite of boutique artist services supporting a selection of rising stars with tailored licensing deals, ranging from funding and revenue optimization to artist marketing, publishing, and now, sync. All artists stay in control of their masters and future releases. Amuse’s licensed catalog includes 8,000+ recordings from 300+ artists, such as Yot Club, Emei, Stela Cole, Hotel Ugly, Mind’s Eye, Julie, Vundabar and 80purppp.

“Daniel is a fantastic addition to the Amuse team, and we are thrilled to welcome him,” says Sean Staranka, Head of Artist Marketing from Amuse. “The growth of our licensed catalog shows that people are resonating with these tracks, and our vast access to demographics and streaming data creates great synergies for sync opportunities. Daniel’s experience and eagerness to spearhead our move into sync services will bring great value to Amuse’s roster.”

Daniel Copleston most recently worked at [PIAS], the global family of independent record labels and artists. As Sync & Brand Partnerships Manager, he managed sync placements across several platforms, from TV shows and films to video games and advertisements. Prior to that, he was the Sync and Licensing Coordinator at Cooking Vinyl Records.

“With brands releasing so much more content online today, artists have more sync placement opportunities than ever to help reach new audiences,” says Daniel Copleston. “Amuse artists are killing it in streaming. They have a huge untapped opportunity to get sync placements, and I’m really happy that I’m the guy they chose to make that happen.”
