Business Wire
United Consortium Ltd. (OTC-UCSO), has acquired a collection of
20,000 of the greatest pop, jazz and classical tracks of all time,
from artists such as Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Lena Horne, Sarah
Vaughn, Benny Goodman, Lionel Hampton, Duke Ellington, Glenn
Miller, Tammy Wynette, Hank Williams, Jr., Dolly Parton, The London
Pops Orchestra and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, to name a
few.
The newly formed entertainment company purchased the catalogues
of Hindsight Records, Stradivari, Otelo, Michele, Tinseltown and
Kielbasa with a combination of cash and stock from Hindsight
Records. Inc. The company plans to license the titles to music
distributors and advertisers as the first step toward becoming a
full-service entertainment firm that will provide development in
catalog, film, new artists and new media.
United Consortium has named Marc Offenbach, a former senior
marketing executive at Sony Music, as president. Offenbach has more
than 30 years experience in the music industry. He has spearheaded
marketing and sales campaigns for Academy Award winning film
soundtracks such as Titanic, Star Wars, and Shakespeare in Love, as
well as artists such as Tony Bennett, Bob Dylan, Barbra
Streisand, Neil Diamond, Maxwell, MGMT, Adele, The Fray, and
Harry Connick, Jr.
United Consortium will offer artists, managers and copyright
holders an alternative to the corporate business model by providing
them with a home where they can freely flow their interests through
the wide universe of entertainment distribution. “The entertainment
industry is going through radical changes, and many artists,
managers and copyright holders are moving away from big
corporations and seeking alternatives ways to identify the right
marketing strategies for their interests,” said Offenbach. “I’m
excited to be part of a new venture where the fundamental part of
our business will focus on helping identify partners that will
present our artists’ content in its best light.”
