LOS ANGELES, Oct. 28 Film Score Monthly (FSM) has signed an agreement with Screen Archives Entertainment (SAE) to be its exclusive distributor and manage fulfillment operations for its film music recordings, effective November 1, according to principals of both companies, Lukas Kendall (FSM) and Craig Spaulding (SAE).
As a result of the combined operations, SAE will expand its East Coast fulfillment
center in Linden, VA, and handle sales, customer service and orders for FSM's
varied products, including its subscription film score CDs. The joint operation
and expansion will also allow SAE to upgrade its equipment and improve its shipping
and handling operations outside Washington DC.
SAE will continue to produce its own soundtrack releases. The editorial and
advertising functions of the Film Score Monthly magazine will remain in Los
Angeles, Kendall said. "I had previously maintained our fulfillment in-house
out of sheer paranoia against distribution companies, but it was incredibly
difficult. I trust Craig and SAE to treat our customers with the same precision
and respect they treat their own.
I am so relieved to be in business with them," Kendall said. FSM's Classic
Charter Series has produced such titles as Logan's Run, All About Eve, The French
Connection and Mutiny on the Bounty. Today SAE has contracts with composers,
their estates or heirs, and major record labels to produce quality soundtracks
for collectors in limited quantities. SAE also produces the Brigham Young University
Film Music Archives collection under BYU's own label. Other SAE titles include
Wilson, Captain from Castile, Black Swan, Dragonwyck, Alexander's Ragtime Band
and Night and the City.
In the coming months, SAE will release Foxes of Harrow, Son of Fury, Laurel
and Hardy's Laugh Tunes and Marjorie Morningstar. Both companies' websites,
http://www.filmscoremonthly.com and http://www.screenarchives.com have undergone
major improvements to assist customers in the consolidation.
