BMG has acquired the recorded catalogue of French pop singer and composer, Alain Chamfort. 

The deal is part of BMG’s global acquisition programme, which included the acquisition of the recorded catalogue of French DJ and electronic music artist Martin Solveig in October of this year.

In addition to this deal, Chamfort has chosen BMG for his future recordings.

Comprising 13 albums, the acquisition includes the majority of Chamfort’s recorded catalogue, including the studio albums Poses, Amour Année Zéro, Tendres Fièvres and Secrets Glacés, as well as some of his biggest hits including Manureva, La Fièvre Dans Le Sang and Géant.
