Adrian Murray, General Manager Adrian provides interesting look at the history of the Mushroom groups of companies, and an explanation on what a music publisher does for their artists including protecting copyright, looking after royalties and licneses, and exploiting markets.

Hey and welcome to the channel! – This video is a test recording of a sample improvisation performance — that is to say I’ve never rehearsed this prior, nor will I ever be able to perform it the same way again, etc. etc. (maybe for the better in this case? haha). Also, this is my first improv video upload, so bear with me about the odd angle/quality. =p A bit of background… ================= This kinda thing is one of my foremost interests in life. I enjoy performing this type of stuff in public, and currently play live ~4-5 days out of the week. I’ve also been at work producing some music for licensing companies (for commercial/corporate use). Enjoy and thanks for listening — more videos will be up soon as subscriber exclusives and the like. 🙂 Feel free to get in touch // 4improv@gmail.com
