Sydney-based independent music production house Red Note has
officially opened its doors bringing to the local advertising market a
heritage of expertise in sound composition and music licensing for the
digital age.
Based in North Sydney and with less than a year in
the market, the newly launched sound house is already off to a strong
beat, attracting recognition as a finalist in this year's Mumbrella
BEfest Awards for its work on Telstra VR campaign, Telstra360: For the
Fans.
Combining music expertise and experience, Red Note is the love child of
Peer Music former Managing Director Matt Donlevy, In The Mix / Faster
Louder former Brand and Sponsorship Manager Greg Townley, acclaimed
music composer Steve Peach and Red Engine Managing Director Julian
Townley.
Recognising the demand for branded content, and the
desire to connect more deeply with audiences, Red Note managing director
Greg Townley, also an acclaimed musician with over 20 years experience
in advertising and music production, believes nothing ignites an
emotional bond quite like music does.
Says Greg Townley: "To me, music is the
integral piece than can help content transcend with audiences through
its ability to move, inspire and engage. There's no better
time than now to launch a music production company that caters to the
specific needs of the digital market and gives our clients the
opportunity to communicate and connect beyond images and words."
Alongside
his brother Julian Townley, CEO of Red Note and MD of BRW Fast Starters
content agency Red Engine, the pair has produced more than 10 albums
for commercial airplay and their songs have debuted on TV soundtracks,
including Network Ten series Bondi Rescue.
Says Julian Townley: "Much like everything
we do, and now as business partners, we want our clients' audiences to
have as much fun enjoying the content we produce, as we have producing
it.
"Bringing together the passion, vast
network and respectable expertise of Matt Donlevy, once responsible for
managing Peer Music - the world's largest independent music licensing
company, and the likes of award winning composer Steve Peach, whose work
currently features on Australian feature film Alex and Eve, only
reinforces the strength of our offering."
