Philip Mortlock’s ORiGin Music Publishing has teamed up with Marcus Knight’s Knight Music Publishing to form a new creative partnership to develop international opportunities for their artists and composers.

Knight Music Publishing represents Andy Ward, Levi Dowsett, Melissa Erpen, Christian Gulino and others while ORiGin Music Publishing reps Bucks Music, Du Vinage, District 6, Just Isn’t Music (Ninja Tunes), Shubert Music, What A Publishing (David Guetta), AIR and Gotye.

“We welcome the astute A & R skills Marcus has to help find and develop contemporary talent for the local and international market” says ORiGiN Creative Director Philip Mortlock. “Marcus has a keen pop and dance sensibility and we’re excited to be working with him with these genre’s and artists.”

“The collaborative relationship between ORiGiN and KMP is one built of ideals. Ideals of lasting commitment to supporting great Australian music. Operating independently enables unique creativity and commercial flexibility in a global market that is very appealing” says Marcus Knight. “Philip Mortlock and Philip Walker’s vast international experiences is a cornerstone asset to our vision for the future success of our valued roster.”
