Label GB

BMG Rights Management, formerly known as Bertelsmann Music Group, is a global music conglomerate with a rich history in the industry. Originally formed in 1985 as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and RCA, BMG has since evolved into a powerhouse of music production and distribution.

In 1986, Bertelsmann acquired full ownership of RCA and Arista Records through the purchase of their joint venture's stock from General Electric. The following year, these labels were merged under the umbrella of Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), solidifying its position as a major player in the music world.

In 2004, BMG joined forces with Sony Music to create Sony BMG Music Entertainment. However, in 2008, Bertelsmann sold its stake in the company, leading to the formation of BMG Rights Management. Today, BMG continues to thrive as a leading record label and distributor worldwide.

Peter Doherty (born 12 March 1979) is an English musician, songwriter, actor, poet, writer, and artist. He is best known for being co-frontman of <en>The Libertines</en>, which he formed with Carl Barât in 1997. His other musical projects include indie band <en>Babyshambles</en> and <en>Peter Doherty and the Puta Madres</en>.

With a diverse range of talents, Peter Doherty has established himself as a multi-faceted artist in the music industry. From his early days with The Libertines to his solo endeavors with Babyshambles and Peter Doherty and the Puta Madres, he has consistently showcased his unique style and creativity.

Doherty's music draws inspiration from various genres such as indie rock, punk rock, and folk. His lyrical prowess shines through in his heartfelt songwriting, capturing raw emotions and painting vivid pictures with words. Alongside his musical career, Doherty has also dabbled in acting, poetry writing, and visual artistry.

Hamburg Demonstrations is the new album from the enigmatic The Libertines front man Pete Doherty. Produced and mixed by Johann Scheerer (Faust / Bosnian Rainbows / The Killers) and recorded at his analogue-based studio, Clouds Hill Recordings in Hamburg. Hamburg Demonstrations includes the previously released singles The Whole World Is Our Playground and a new recording of the Amy Winehouse tribute Flags From The Old Regime. The album also features Hell To Pay At The Gates Of Heaven written after the Paris attacks last November – it laments the fact that young people are now picking up guns instead of guitars “Come on boys choose your weapon J-45 or AK-47?”, ‘Kolly Kibber’ inspired by the newspaper man who meets a sticky end at the beginning of Brighton Rock and A Spy In The House Of Love a title borrowed from the Anaïs Nin novel.
