As the music industry has been brought to its knees by illegal downloading, people fail to see the key transformation taking place - music globalization. Take a look at the music charts: rappers from Sri Lanka, American artists tapping into Middle Eastern beats, Australian bands touring the world, an explosion of new genres, and the second round of the British invasion are dominating the global scene. Close to 25% of today’s chart toppers are internationally breed musicians, which is a gigantic transformation from a few years ago. 

M. Frascogna, who has essentially become the founder of the term “music globalization” and the emerging “go to” source on anything internationally music related, understands this niche better than anyone. With two master degrees (International Communication & International Marketing) specifically tailored to understanding international music, Frascogna grasp the market before the global trend even started. Armed academically, Frascogna’s professional experience is even more impressive. He co-founded international label RedJet Records in Stockholm (www.redjetrecords.com), consistently works with international artist with management and helping them strategies releases in international markets, label placement, international career development, author of three internationally focused books, and even consults with indie/major labels about international marketing. Due to M. Frascogna’s success in the global realm, DePaul University named him one of their Top 14 Alumni Under 40 – a title held with executives of Fortune 500 companies. 

Frascogna’s unique knowledge on international issues has made
him a sought after source by musicians and labels of all levels. Because international music topics are interconnected, consisting of immigration, customs, passport, and international law issues, Frascogna’s musical background coupled with international legal knowledge puts him in high demand.
