Ingrooves Music Group, a world leader in music distribution, marketing, and technology, is partnering with Australian independent record label Teamwrk for exclusive worldwide distribution for all their artists, including acclaimed rapper Masked Wolf, who is reuniting with his original independent team at Teamwrk. The first global single under the partnership, “Never the Same,” is out now.
Ingrooves signed Teamwrk Records, one of Australia’s leading independent labels, to a global distribution deal in mid-2022. Since then, they have collaborated on releases across Teamwrk’s catalog of artists around the world and released two new Masked Wolf singles outside of Australia and New Zealand, “Butterflies & Bandaids” (December 2022) and “The Story” (January 2023).
“Our partnership with Ingrooves has already helped us see growth and new opportunities around the world as we look to expand and engage audiences for Masked Wolf and the rest of the Teamwrk roster,” said Jae Butt, Co-Founder of Teamwrk. “It’s incredibly gratifying for the label team to continue building Wolf on a global basis as he takes creative and commercial control of his career by returning to his independent roots. And we feel we’ve found a perfect partner for him and the rest of the Teamwrk roster in Ingrooves, whose best-in-class global distribution team and marketing services will enable our team to expand our marketing efforts on a true global scale.”
“Jae Butt and the entire Teamwrk team are a true powerhouse and an inspiration for those in the music industry that want to make it independently on a global scale,” said Nina Rabe-Cairns, Managing Director, APAC for Ingrooves Music Group.
Jack Limmer, Label & Business Development Manager for Ingrooves Music Group commented: “We are incredibly excited to be supporting and empowering Masked Wolf’s return to the indie community. Teamwrk’s passion and ear for talent is undeniable, I can’t wait for the world to hear what the entire roster has in the pipeline.”
