Leadership comment
Patrick Moxey, CEO of Helix Records, said:
“We have always believed in putting artist and songwriter development at the heart of everything we do. When designing our new European base, it was important to create a music-focused environment where creativity could genuinely flourish. I remember coming to London in the ’80s and ’90s, when amazing, creator-friendly companies like Island Records had offices that artists and songwriters actually wanted to work and hang out in. I think the industry is in danger of losing that connection with their talent, and we’re fully focused on growing that in-person bond whilst also maximising the digital era, through our studios, content rooms and social media platforms.”
