Mercury has just surprised the industry by closing one of the hottest young artist signatures of the year, The Strypes - and the two execs at the top of the firm say there’s plenty more to come LABELS I BY TIM INGHAM

013 was always going to be a big year for Mercury Records UK. 2 With the anticipated return of pop goliaths like Metallica, , Noah & The Whale, , Chase & Status and , the iconic label has lined up some of the biggest blockbuster releases of the next 12 months. Yet you could be forgiven for thinking the company - which recently lanced a reputation for over-reliance on international artists by breaking Jake Bugg and Sabre’s debut albums to over 200,000 sales apiece - doesn’t have too much up its sleeve in terms of fresh British talent for the coming year. Notable by its absence on the BBC Sound Of 2013 longlist and the BRIT Critics’ Choice nominees, has Mercury’s well of domestic hitmakers started to run dry? Don’t be daft. The label last year hired ex- Columbia MD to help it snag some of the tastiest talent in the land and the exec, alongside label president Jason Iley, hasn’t wasted any time. Alongside Smith’s first signing, Hackney rapper , the company is readying debut records from artists such as ‘1D with guitars’ The Vamps plus UK-signed Australian hip-hop oddball , tipped by Iley as “simply brilliant”. But surely the hottest new signature sitting on Mercury’s books is The Strypes; the mop-haired four-piece of Irish teenagers whose London Hawley Arms show last year created a laughably madcap industry-wide scrum, and subsequent major label scrabble. Other signed acts that are getting Mercury’s internal decision-makers giddy include LA rappers ABOVE the world; that you could be back watching the Earning their “When I started here, we had Fame Oddience (who are “hugely exciting” with Strypes: Mike Rolling Stones or . “something of The Fugees about them”, according Smith (left) and Academy and a hugely exploited to Smith), as well as South East London teenage Jason Iley (right) Mike Smith: In contrast to an artist like One say they are catalogue.

We work very Fink’s Noah & closely with managers and make sure that both The Whale will sides bring opportunities. To say that the managers release their fourth album or we as a label can do it all alone really doesn’t on Mercury work anymore. The industry’s changed - we can all this year work together or we can fight over it, but it’s really all about collaboration.

How much has acceptance changed of 360 deals? JI: Hugely. Ten years ago it was unthinkable but now that we are investing so much in artists and their development, again the atmosphere is all about collaboration. It doesn’t matter what genre of music it is – let’s just share our resources and work out how we can do this together as a united team. It's working. It definitely feels like a partnership now.

What’s happening with Vertigo? JI: It is still a Mercury imprint with acts signed to it. Mike and I will develop it in the future - he’s only been here since September. Finding and developing new acts will be Mercury’s focus over the next six months to a year.

Global singles sales rocket after slow start for UK acts

WHEN MUSIC WEEK started annually clocking the UK’s top global album sellers back in 2000 it would have been ludicrous to have created an accompanying singles chart. In the first year of the century the single, then mainly selling on CD, was in most countries largely or totally irrelevant. Even in the US, the world’s leading music market, the single had long stopped mattering with its sales on CD there that year shrinking by 39%, a fall the IFPI attributed then in part to the availability of so much free music. What a turnaround there has been since then. Apple last week acclaimed iTunes’ 25th billionth track sale and, while some of those purchases would have happened as albums, the vast majority of them occurred one track at a time. Last year in the States, despite digital album sales hitting another annual high, for every download album bought 11 individual tracks were acquired, while in the UK the ratio was “In 2012, a remarkable 13 tracks by UK artists sold more than 2 million copies overseas - and not all of them were by Adele” six digital singles sold for every digital album. For a variety of UK-signed acts, at a time when multi-million- selling albums are scarcer than a 1970s TV star free of suspicion, the one-track digital single is making a huge difference to their sales profiles. In 2012 a remarkable 13 tracks by UK-signed acts sold more than 2m copies overseas, compared to six the year COOL before – and not all of them were by Adele. Among those enjoying this new golden era of the single are One Direction whose top three singles alone last year collectively generated 7.8 million sales outside the UK, the BRITANNIA equivalent of 780,000 albums sold if you convert every 10 tracks bought into an album purchase. That is quite a figure when you consider just how rare it has become for a UK act to sell more than a million copies of their album overseas. RULES GLOBE For some artists, selling a decent number of one-track downloads makes an even bigger difference to their commercial well-being. Although her album numbers are more , , Adele, One Direction and moderate, achieved 3m sales abroad last year via just two singles, while ’s lack of albums business many more reached a million album sales in 2012 was partially compensated by more than 2 million takers for her track Want U Back.

INTERNATIONAL I BY PAUL WILLIAMS K-signed acts defied the shrinking albums U market last year by achieving more million sellers internationally than since 2008. Nine albums by artists signed to UK record companies sold at least one million copies overseas during the calendar year, more than double the number achieved in 2010 when Syco act ’s The Gift was the top seller with 3.7 million sales. From that low point Adele has led a British revival of blockbuster releases in international markets, helping to take the tally of million-selling albums by UK-signed acts abroad back up to eight in 2011 and increasing that total still further last year. On top of that another two albums by British acts signed to overseas labels – Rod Stewart and Led Zeppelin – also achieved seven-figure sales abroad in 2012. While all that is clearly positive, the presence yet again of Adele at the top of Music Week’s annual chart of the year’s biggest UK-sourced albums globally and return appearances for the likes of Coldplay and Mumford & Sons underline that only a select few British acts are now reaching these levels of sales. However, fresh blood did come convincingly from One Direction who, in their first ABOVE ever year as an act released globally, had the UK’s where it had not been a big seller. Having in 2011 Mumford & Sons: debut, released by independent Glassnote in North British band’s second and third top sellers overseas of 2012. only reached 51 on Oricon’s weekly Japanese Babel sold 2.2m America and Universal elsewhere, makes a third Predictably ahead of the Syco quintet is Adele albums chart, 21 leapt up to a peak of 4 in the same across the world appearance with another 0.9 million copies shifted last year who provides two of the Top 10 sellers worldwide week after the Grammys last February as it shifted enough to place it joint 10th with Asylum/Atlantic by UK-signed acts for a second successive year with a new weekly sales high of 730,000 copies in the act Ed Sheeran’s +.

SINGLES FOCUS: ONE DIRECTION, THE WANTED, GOULDING AND ADELE SELL BIG OUTSIDE THE UK One Direction’s What Makes You Beautiful shifted 4.8 million copies overseas in 2012 to become the year’s top single by a UK-signed act. The sales of the top one-track download seller were significantly down on the 8.4 million total achieved by 2011’s No 1 by Adele, but overall far more UK- sourced releases sold in the multi-millions compared to 12 months ago. In fact, the sales threshold to qualify for Music Week’s Top 10 chart of the leading UK-sourced singles of the year doubled between 2011 and 2012. On the 2011 countdown Parlophone act Coldplay’s Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall and the Phonogenic-issued For The First Time by The Script shared ninth place after each selling 1.3 million copies overseas, but 2012’s bottom rung track Domino by Island/Lava’s Jessie J needed 2.6 million sales to attain 10th place. The big lift in sales of the top sellers within the space of a year was largely down to UK-signed acts having their most successful singles run in the States for two decades. As the world’s top digital music market with more than 1.3 billion one-track downloads sold in 2012, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the US has by far the greatest influence on shaping the chart with the entire Top 10 having been substantial retail sellers there. What Makes You Beautiful itself was the top one-track download by a UK-signed act in the States in 2012 with nearly 3.9 million units sold there by the end of December. That represented around 80% of its calendar year sales outside the UK with its other big overseas markets including Australia, Canada and Mexico.

What’s the first record you remember buying? The Hits 2 album. I wanted Now 3 (for the Wham track) but WH Smith had tragically sold out.

Which song will be the first dance at your wedding? Database vs French Beaches and Friends (The PRODUCING GREATNESS Twelves remix) – a great song, London’s Cafe de Paris hosted the MPG Awards 2013 my favourite remixers, and it’s last Thursday, where Paul Epworth won UK Producer about being ‘H-O-T’, so good of the year (and the BRIT Award that goes with it), vibes all round. Glyn Johns took the MPG Inspiration Award and a certain Beatle-driving legend was honoured for an Favourite artist meeting of your Oustanding Contribution to UK Music. Sharing this life so far? page with Sir George Martin, you’ll find the likes of So many…Peter Kay (does he BPI CEO Geoff Taylor, UK Music’s Jo Dipple, PPL’s Peter count?) was hilarious at our O2 Leathem and Fran Nevrkla, The Bucks Music crew The Silver Clef Awards last year, but Bucks Music Crew – including A&R boss Jimmy Smith my weekend with and head of creative Jonathan Tester and of course and tops them all. MPG chairman Steve Levine. Comedy gold.

Which track would you like played at your funeral? A bit obvious, but so beautiful - Diana Ross Remember Me. Faded into Beastie Boys (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party).

What’s your karaoke speciality? Queen Bohemian Rhapsody. Unbelievably I won the Rockaoke Championship at the 2010 Big Chill Festival by shouting my way through it whilst encouraging a mass stage invasion.

Recommend a track Music Week readers may not have heard. Jump by Linn Öberg – an amazing new Swedish artist that I met through Andy Ross. Check her out on Soundcloud… www.soundcloud.com/linnoberg

What’s your favourite single/ track of all time. It changes constantly. Today it’s Joubert Singers ‘Stand on The World’ (Larry Levan remix)
