Digipak

For the digipak I was looking at producers for the songs as some of them would have been produced by different people. I was also looking at publishing companies, as we agreed in our digipak we would have information about the songs. I came across BMG, who have worked on songs from Ronan Keating and even Melanie C and Alexandra Burke. Before I chose this company, I wanted to research through some more, so looking at some CDs I owned and on the internet. Through BMG I found another company called Cherry Lane, this company have worked on songs from Elvis, The Black Eyed Peas, Estelle, Beyonce, Jordin Sparks and many more and they have another joined company called Stage Three. This company had worked on songs by Aerosmith and even Macy Gray.
However, even though I had found this information I still wanted to make sure I had chosen the correct companies to work on the songs so I found the CDs I had that were most like Delilah's music and looked at their digipaks. But the closest CDs I could find to Delilah's genre of music were Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Kelly Clarkson, as it is harder to get this information from just buying a song on iTunes.
On Britney's album I found a company called Zomba Music Publishers ltd. So I decided to research this further. The company are actually owned by Sony Music Entertainment. However, I could not find a website for this company which made it hard to see what other music they had published. Some of Britney's music had also been published by BMG.
Christina Aguilera's songs were mostly published by BMG, but this also showed that they related to Sony, as on the back of her album it repeated Sony BMG music entertainment. However, even though she seemed to be on Sony's record label, the music information said that the songs were administrated in the EU by EMI.
Lastly on Kelly Clarkson's album the information was only on the bonus tracks however, it clearly showed that her music was published by BMG also and she was on Sony BMG's record label.

After looking at this I decided that Delilah's music could possibly use Cherry Lane music, as this is a major publishing company, and the reason I have not used BMG (even though they are apart of the same company) is because the artists that seemed to have used BMG were on Sony's record label, and we had already decided that Delilah's record company would be EMI.
