Universal Music has announced plans to release a series of new albums designed to raise the profile of emerging talent across its labels.
'NTRODUCING' will be a digital only series containing a mix of brand new talent and more established young artists. The first album, released 14th March, will feature breaking artists Clare Maguire, James Blake, Mona, The Pierces, Tinashe, Alice Gold, The Bees, Yuck & alongside rising stars White Lies, Jamie Woon, Jessie J & The Naked & Famous.
Aimed at a younger, gig attending, student / 20s market the album will be competitively priced at £7.99 which means the 13 tracks will be around 20% cheaper than anywhere else.
The intention is to release 3 albums in the first year and UMTV is committing 'significant' marketing resource to the project through its digital marketing team and a PR campaign from PPR Publicity's online division PPR Digital. A website & social media channels are all in the offing.

1. Jamie Woon ' Night Air
2. The Naked & Famous ' Punching In A Dream
3. Clare Maguire ' Ain't Nobody
4. James Blake ' Limit To Your Love
