Bertus Distributie

What we do..

We feel that there is more to selling music, than just selling music. And so Bertus has given special attention to its promotional department. Operating as a small, tightly knit team, three full time employed contributors work hard to get as much media attention as possible. Having previously worked for independent record companies, they realize like no other, the importance of being properly represented as an artist.

In Belgium, we have a domestic promoter who sets up radio and press promotion for most releases. It works best to have someone situated in that country, who can make easy appointments with local media.

Our in-house promotion team make sure, that promotional copies of releases find their way to media contacts most likely to respond to the album, generating an extensive number of reviews (daily papers, magazines, internet), radio airplay (national/ local) and TV attention.

The distribution releases are highlighted on special e-mails & fax messages, featuring short bios and sales points on the artists. The Bertus internet site is another source of information, augmenting the bios of the artists with colour artwork, and links to the sites of distribution labels.

A growing number of labels are making use of the excellent facilities of Bertus, to represent and distribute their releases. These labels are diverse, with a vast array of different musical styles. The following list is just a small sample of Bertus distributed labels:
