Gaga Music, Warp Publishing Strike New Partnership
Both independent music businesses have worked together since 2017.
Gaga Music, an Australian independent music publishing and sync specialist, has formed a new partnership with London-based Warp Publishing. The two companies, which have collaborated since 2017, signed the agreement on the eve of the 2026 BIGSOUND conference in Brisbane. With Warp joining Gaga Music's board as a director alongside founder Grant Gillies, the partnership aims to expand global opportunities for songwriters, composers, and represented catalogues.
The financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed. Gillies emphasized the importance of independent music companies offering a creative and ethical alternative in rights management. Seffusatti, director of Warp Publishing, and Riezouw, GM of Warp Publishing, shared Gillies' sentiment, highlighting the shared commitment to independence, artist-focused development, and long-term creative growth.
Riezouw also noted that both companies value independent artists and are proud to strengthen this ethos together. With this arrangement, Gaga Music will no longer have ties to its former partners at Inertia Music.
