This Spring Lasgo is excited to be working once again with Argentinian label MusicBrokers on the forthcoming
“The Almodovar Experience”. The 2CD set features music from and inspired by the legendary Spanish filmmaker
Pedro Almodovar and looks like repeating the huge success of our “Tarantino Experience” albums from last year.
Lasgo’s team at Midem 2012 have returned after another successful show in Cannes. “It is the one trade fair where we can sit down with all our global partners and discuss business at the end of the most important sales quarter of the year. It also gives us a great chance to listen to the needs of our clients and provides invaluable momentum to help drive the business forward in the following months. And this year was no exception.” Next year the show runs from 26th to the 29th January and Lasgo will of course be there.
