Interesting reading back on this now :lol:

 

I think BMG have done brilliantly - #1 Gold album, Top 40 single, Top 60 single and lots of physicals and remixes. The singles could have been handled better but I think we can say that many times throughout Kylie’s career (Timebomb anyone :lol: )

How BMG handle the Greatest Hits release ( it is all looking promising) will be interesting.

They did extremely well with Golden (i would have switched the Christmas cassette for a new cd version).

That aside, they pushed Golden as much as they could.

The Greatest Hits will be a test to see if they can manage another successful album campaign.

 

Does anyone know if there's still a contract for Kylie with BMG after this year? I got the sense that she signed the record deal on an album-by-album basis.

At the moment it make sense for Kylie and BMG to stay working together.

BMG appear to understand Kylie.

BMG seem to know how to market Kylie at this stage of her career and appear to give her creative freedom with her work, whilst Kylie's probably the biggest and most profitable artist that BMG have signed.
It’s a long term deal - one of the (many) reasons Kylie went with them was due to the fact the own the back catalogue to her PWL and Deconstruction recordings, obviously this gives her a level of control over what happens with them going forward plus makes things such as the new GH simpler to release.
That's good to hear! I know we keep talking about it but would be great if we can get a collection of her bonus material released. Who has rights to the stuff that hasn't been officially released?
It is likely the ownership of such material is extremely mixed therefore making such a release almost impossible.

Parlophone own anything she recorded with them (Apart from anything to do with ‘Kylie Christmas’ as she licensed it to them and retained the overall rights via her Darenote company). Everything else is now with BMG (PWL, Deconstruction & BMG) apart from the oddities she’s done over the years such as the Towa Tei collabs etc., So BMG hold the main goodies we want as loads has leaked from Parlophone.

 

Kylie has stopped the release of certain music in recent years (again one the reasons why her partnership with BMG works for her - if she wasn’t signed to them they could raid the Deconstruction vault and release whatever they wanted).
