Air-Edel Associates Composer Representation & Music Services, London Recording Studios, Music Publishing & Record Labels

Air-Edel offers full music supervision and production services for feature film, television, commercials and video game projects. Founded in 1970 by Herman Edel and Sir George Martin, Air-Edel has evolved from an advertising music and jingles production house to an all-encompassing agency and music services company offering composers, music supervisors and other music personnel for productions, as

well as a publishing catalogue, record labels and recording studios. Our range of services includes everything from bespoke composition, music production and editing, recording facilities, and full music supervision for all forms of media. We have extensive music history and copyright knowledge which can be utilised across productions, from initial ideas and research to licensing, from on-set music co-ordination to score production. Our experience ranges from micro-budget productions and short films to Hollywood blockbusters and our involvement can span from conception to post and everything in between. Our recording studios have an illustrious and rich history, beginning in 1937 as Star Sound, which was used to record literally thousands of recordings for both the BBC and Radio Luxemborg, and then from 1971 as Audio International, recording artists such as Tom Jones, Pink Floyd, Sheena Easton, The Drifters, Gilbert O’Sullivan and Harry Nilsson. Many treasures remain from this period, including Neumann U47s, AKG C12s, vintage Coles, three fully operational EMT reverb plates as well as Neve and Urei outboard. Since 1991, when Air-Edel took residence, the studio has recorded and mixed hundreds of Film and TV film scores including Gosford Park, Pride and Prejudice, Thor, Mr. Turner and Murder on the Orient Express, and continued to host many talented artists, including Emile Sande, Ellie Goulding, Michael Kiwanuka, Nick Cave and Mark Ronson.

'Girl Taken', with original music by Andrew Simon McAllister, is available to stream today exclusively on Paramount+.

"Based on the novel Baby Doll by Hollie Overton, Girl Taken follows the story of twin sisters Lily and Abby, whose lives are shattered when Lily is abducted from their quiet rural English town by beloved local teacher Rick Hansen. After years of abuse in captivity, Lily escapes - only to discover that freedom brings its own challenges. The world she longed to return to has moved on without her.

As Abby, Lily and their mother Eve struggle to rebuild their family, they must confront the lasting damage and the terrifying reality that Rick is still out there, determined to control the narrative and evade justice. Raw and emotionally charged, Girl Taken is a gripping exploration of trauma, resilience, sisterhood, and the high cost of reclaiming one’s life. The six-part series stars Alfie Allen (Game of Thrones, Atomic) and Jill Halfpenny (The Cuckoo, After the Flood) as Rick and Eve, while sisters Tallulah and Delphi Evans will take on the roles of Lily and Abby."

Introducing Joris de Man, the BAFTA-nominated, double Ivor Novello and Jerry Goldsmith Award-winning composer for games, film, and animation.

Known for his strong themes and melodies, his music spans electronic and orchestral styles, with an emphasis on creating a distinct musical identity for each project.

Joris’s work on the ‘Killzone’ and ‘Horizon’ franchises helped define their distinctive musical sound, his bold orchestral scores for the former setting the benchmark for the First-Person Shooters genre, and his themes for ‘Horizon Zero Dawn’ and its heroine Aloy becoming fan favorites, contributing to one of Sony’s best-selling original soundtracks and streamed over 17 million times on Spotify.
