BMG Signs Anna Lunoe to Worldwide Publishing Deal
BMG has signed Australian DJ and producer Anna Lunoe to an exclusive worldwide publishing agreement, marking a fresh chapter for one of the country's most prominent electronic music exports. The deal reflects BMG's continued push to build out its Australian and New Zealand roster and underscores Lunoe's standing as a pioneering figure in a male-dominated dance music scene.
Lunoe, known for breaking barriers such as becoming the first woman to play a solo set on the kineticFIELD mainstage at Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas in 2016, has performed at festivals including Lollapalooza, Ultra and Coachella, and collaborated with artists such as Flume, Skrillex and Melanie C. Her 2024 debut album Pearl earned wide critical acclaim, and she joins a BMG publishing roster that includes Neil Finn, Jet and What So Not, with BMG's Heath Johns describing her as "an icon" for Australian electronic musicians.

Anna Lunoe is an Australian DJ and producer who has spent years building a reputation in electronic dance music, including standout festival appearances at events such as Coachella, Ultra and Lollapalooza, and past collaborations with acts like Flume and Skrillex. Her career has been marked by several firsts for women in a scene long dominated by men, and her 2024 debut album, Pearl, was well received by critics.
BMG is a global music company that signs artists to publishing deals, meaning it manages and promotes the rights to their songwriting and compositions rather than their recordings. It has been expanding its roster of Australian and New Zealand artists, which already includes names such as Neil Finn, Jet and What So Not.
This matters because publishing deals of this kind can shape how an artist's music is developed, marketed and exploited commercially over the long term, and signing a high-profile figure like Lunoe reflects wider moves by major music companies to invest in electronic and dance music talent from Australia.
