Listening with Alex Kelman

Alex Kelman Season 1 Episode 7

"I get to work with the most creative and intelligent people alive. I’m dedicated to discovering new music throughout the world while continuing to educate myself on the cultural context in which those ideas stem."

Alex Kelman is a fixture in the music industry, both as a DJ and musician as well as a publisher responsible for finding new talent. As an executive for many years with Warp Publishing and ZYNC Music, he signed some amazing artists including The Glitch Mob, Danny Brown, and Khruangbin. He is now co-EVP of Creative/ A&R at Third Side Music (the company who represents such artists as Flying Lotus and Sofi Tukker). 

Join us as we talk negotiating deals, collaborating with artists, and what he's learned along the way.
