Client Focus: Carl Cox – Exclusive worldwide personal, business and commercial management.

Carl Cox always wanted to share his love of music with others and the ‘three deck wizard’ quickly became ‘The People’s Choice’ of the emerging scene. He has gone on to become one of the most globally renowned electronic music artists winning countless accolades including a record 34 consecutive DJ Mag nominations since the awards began.  Continuously performing as a headline DJ and live act worldwide, creating in the studio where he is a prolific remixer and recording artist, hosting his own ‘Playground’ at Burning Man or behind the wheel at the race track with his motorsports team, Carl is known for pushing boundaries and breaking down barriers.

Carl has the highest engagement across all social media and music platforms of any other electronic music artist. He has a uniquely loyal growing fanbase in the millions, spread across the world and includes most of his peers and most major artists. He has just signed a 3 album deal with BMG as a live recording artist and continues to cross over between the underground and major festival headliner worlds. He also has a large high net worth and design-led following who enjoy his special associations with brands like MV Agusta, GQ and Zenith and places including Ibiza, Burning Man and Glastonbury.
