WELCOME TO ORIGINAL MEDIA

Formed in 1992 by media industry executives Luke Crampton and Dafydd Rees, Original Media creates and produces innovative and profitable media concepts across all areas of entertainment: everything from original television series and syndicated radio shows to book publishing ideas and original screenplays. We also provide a definitive reference source for all things media with an emphasis on popular music research and the history of music - and offer a music supervision and licensing service to the television and advertising industries.

Our many broadcast clients include CNN for whom we created and co-produced the first global weekly music television series “World Beat” and its successor, “The Music Room”. The company also co-devised “The Network Chart Show” for Independent Radio and Televsion in the UK, and ‘The Alphabet Show’ series for ITV.

Through our music research division (Music Information Database), Luke Crampton and Dafydd Rees have authored more than 20 books including "Rock & Roll: Year By Year" in association with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Our music supervision and licensing company, Songfinder, provides a service to television networks and advertising agencies to recommend music - and clear the relevant licensing rights - for television commercials and on-air promos.

Original Media also owns a unique Music Charts database (www.allmusiccharts.com) which provides detailed data on every hit single and album which has ever charted in either the USA or the UK, from 1952 to the present day.
