LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) – Position Music President and CEO Tyler Bacon has revealed that Audien has inked an exclusive worldwide publishing agreement with Position Music. Under this arrangement, Position Music will handle the publication of the artist’s existing catalog as well as forthcoming releases.
Audien is a Los Angeles-based DJ and producer who has solidified his presence in the dance music scene. He is recognized for his exceptional production skills and penchant for uplifting melodies. Notably, he garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical in 2015 for his remix of Bastille’s “Pompeii.” That same year, his track “Something Better (feat. Lady A)” made its mark on the Billboard Top 40, reaching No. 29 and marking Audien’s debut on the pop chart. Following several releases on labels like Anjunabeats, Spinnin’ Records, and Astralwerks, Audien signed with Armada Music in 2021, where he dropped three singles, including the chart-topping “Wish It Was You (feat. Cate Downey)” which went on to become a No. 1 Dance Radio record.
Starting 2022 with another No. 1 Dance Radio hit, “One Last Dance (feat. XIRA)”, Audien introduced his ‘Progressive House Never Died’ brand during Miami Music Week 2022, leading to a sold-out tour and a main stage performance at EDC Las Vegas. Recently, he announced a residency with Tao Group in Vegas and is scheduled to perform at various festivals this summer, including Ubbi Dubbi, Beyond Wonderland Chicago, Lost in Dreams, Veld, ÎleSoniq, and more. Audien boasts an impressive portfolio of collaborations with industry heavyweights, having co-written for K-pop sensation BTS on their track “We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal” and produced official remixes for Coldplay, Halsey, Calvin Harris, and others.
“I immediately connected with Position,” says Audien. They’ve been a dream come true—consistently attentive and affirming the countless hours spent making this music. This opportunity allows us to share my music with a broader audience, deepen its connection with the world, and elevate my career to new heights.”
Audien is managed by Eric Bindman and Will Runzel of Prodigy Artists and represented by Alan Gary of Wasserman for North and South America, Asia, and Australia.
“Position’s versatile A&R team is an ideal match for Audien. He’s a unique talent who excels across genres and sought a partner capable of propelling his publishing endeavors. Their culture and approach to publishing align perfectly with our vision, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with them,” says Bindman.
Audien joins a Position Music publishing roster that includes Tinashe, Cannons, Jack LaFrantz, ¿Téo?, Austin Powerz, Brandyn Burnette, Dru “Falconry” DeCaro, Evalyn, Joe Kearns, John “Feldy” Feldman, Judah & the Lion, Krupa, KANNER, No Love For The Middle Child, Kyle Reynolds, and more.
“I am extremely excited that Audien and the Prodigy Artists team have placed their trust in me and the Position Music team,” says Jake Versluis, A&R at Position Music. “As an artist, he is making significant strides in the electronic music scene, having performed at major dance festivals, achieved multiple #1 records at dance radio, secured residencies in Las Vegas, and received a Grammy nomination. He perfectly complements Position as we expand our roster in electronic music.”
