Empowering Creativity, Unleashing Innovation: Transforming the Music Landscape in the Middle East

London, United Kingdom - DAACI, the inventors and developers of a comprehensive and ethical AI music ecosystem of adaptive, generative and creative AI assistive music tools and technologies, has announced a partnership with Dubai based BKP Group which is a world class audio, video, event and media production company.

BKP is a world-class production company who specialise in full service audio production, music composition, sonic branding, film and digital production and entertainment. The production company has earned an exemplary reputation for delivering music and audio production to clients across the Middle East over the past two decades, and as such are ideally positioned to partner with DAACI to offer and deploy the next generation of music tools to clients across Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

As companies with aligning values, the partnership reflects both BKP and DAACI’s commitment to delivering opportunities for composers, artists, rights holders and brand clients by exchanging knowledge, delivering new technologies and strengthening relationships in the fields of music, arts and culture across the Middle East.

According to last year’s Global Music Report published by IFPI, MENA saw revenues from recorded music climb by 23.8%. While streaming accounted for the vast majority of the market, with those revenues accounting for a 95.5% share, this represents the growing importance of the region for the global music business.

Rachel Lyske, CEO of DAACI, comments,

This collaboration marks a significant milestone for DAACI as we expand our footprint into the Middle East. We are thrilled that together with BKP, we will empower even more composers, artists, rights holders and creative agencies. This partnership exemplifies our shared vision of driving positive change and unlocking new opportunities to add value in the realm of music and arts. We look forward to working with BKP Group and the opportunities that our partnership can bring.

Adding to this, Barry Kirsch, CEO of BKP Group, concludes:

We are very excited to introduce this groundbreaking technology to our clients, end users and the wider business community in the Middle East. The adaptive, generative, and creative tools that DAACI brings to the region will help fuel the evolution of music composition within these markets, putting an incredible power to create directly in the hands of creators.
