Music publishing, rights management, sync licensing and artist development

What we dobest.

Writing music and building a career are two different jobs. We take on the second one, so you can keep doing the first.

The industry got complicated

Copyright, contracts, registrations, splits, collection societies, sync, strategy. Songwriters and composers now have to master an environment that grows more complex every year, while their energy should be focused on their work.

OTTO exists to take on that complexity. Not to sit between you and your music, but to stand behind it.

The business serves the music.Never the other way around.

FOUR WAYS WEWORK WITH YOU

These are not separate services you pick from a list. They work together, and they follow the same logic: your work comes first. Everything else exists to serve it.

  1. 01Music publishing

    We sign, develop and defend your works. From the moment a song is written to the moment it lives in the world, your catalogue is managed with the same care you put into writing it.

    That means registering the work properly, protecting it, and making sure it is exploited rather than forgotten in a folder.

  2. 02Rights and publishing administration

    Registrations, splits, statements, Collective Management Organizations (CMOs). This is the part of the job nobody dreams about, and the part where money quietly disappears when it is done badly.

    We handle the paperwork that stands between your work and your royalties, so nothing falls through the cracks.

  3. 03Sync licensing

    Film, television, advertising, games. We seek opportunities to bring your music to new audiences and negotiate the terms when those opportunities arise.

  4. 04Development and strategy

    Strategy, sessions, connections. We work alongside you over the long term, in the good moments and in the ones where the industry gets complicated.

    Because knowing the people we work with is not a service we offer. It is how we work.

NO GENRE.NO FORMULA.

OTTO works first and foremost with songwriters and composers, Swiss and international alike.

We are not looking for a genre or a formula. Rap, pop, electronic, music for the screen, chanson, or something we have not heard yet. What interests us is the uniqueness of a voice, a sound and a vision.

Let’s talkabout your work

Whether you are looking for a publisher, a partner, or simply someone who knows how this works, we would like to hear from you.
