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.

Sigur Rós is an alternative rock band that was formed in 1982 in Glasgow, Scotland. The band has undergone several lineup changes throughout the years, with Bobby Gillespie on vocals since 1984 and Andrew Innes on guitar since 1986. Other current members include Darrin Mooney on drums and Simone Butler on bass.

Over the years, Sigur Rós has had various former members who have contributed to their unique sound. These include Jim Beattie and Robert 'Throb' Young on guitar, Judith Boyle on vocals, Martin St. John on tambourine, Thomas McGurk and Gavin Skinner on drums, Henry Olsen and Gary 'Mani' Mounfield on bass, Paul Harte and Stuart May on guitar, Philip 'Toby' Tomanov and Steve Sidelnyk on drums.

The band's music has been described as atmospheric and ethereal, often incorporating elements of post-rock and shoegaze. Their sound is characterized by lead singer Bobby Gillespie's distinct vocal style and the band's ability to create immersive sonic landscapes.

Following it’s surprise digital release, Sigur Rós’ first new studio album in ten years, ÁTTA, is their most intimate and emotionally direct record to date. Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rós. As you hear on ÁTTA, there’s a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the new formation of the line up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson is back in the fold – having left the band in 2012 – to join frontman Jónsi and bassist Georg Holm. Recorded across multiple continents - in the band’s Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, the legendary Abbey Road in the UK and a number of studios in the US - ÁTTA leans heavily towards the orchestral, and touches on everything that has made Sigur Rós one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, with close to ten million albums sold, whilst signposting an exciting and expansive possibility for their future. ÁTTA prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime Icelandic collaborators Brassgat í bala. It is mixed and co-produced by another frequent collaborator Paul Corley, alongside the band.
