The music is also included in our Spotify playlist that you can listen and subscribe to here > FMX Spotify Playlist
This multilayer approach to delivering and supporting artist campaigns is just a part of the work FMX undertakes locally, and part of the system we have started to create, to best support local music as it builds and connects to the International marketplace.
So far in September, through the PR initiative we have seen Lea Kampmann interviewed by Tidal rising, Horrse receive radio play in Norway, Marianna Winter land in The Independent newspaper playlist in the UK and Joe&theShitboys continue to receive widespread coverage across UK media. With a host of other playlist and press connections across all artists in these territories.
