Creative corner with Christo Patricios at Brumanati MGMT

Having an appreciation for all things media and music, Christo’s moved to London to finish off his studies in Music Production in 2015.

His roots began back in the South African house music scene, Djing a carefully crafted selection of genres appealing to a broad audience.

Fast forward a few years and he now is an erupting, up-and-coming manager in the London music scene with his company, Brumanati MGMT, representing global pop powerhouse Conor Maynard and hit producer Ray Michael Djan (Skepta, Central Cee, BTS, Burna Boy)

Christo also consults on the Sync, Licensing and publishing teams at London-based dance label/publisher Enhanced Music. Helping manage a catalogue of over 4000 tracks and achieving placements with brands such as Jaguar, Adidas, Netflix, Paramount Pictures and many more

Our recent chat with Christo discusses his favourite campaigns and talks about the overlaps between visual creativity and music.

IM LOVING

From a creative perspective, I'm absolutely loving Burna Boy right now. Seeing his astronomic rise into the mainstream over the last few years has been so great to watch. He really lives up to his brand being the 'African Giant', championing African Music on a global scale which I always love to see (being South African).

FAVOURITE VIDEO

French Montana - Unforgettable ft. Swae Lee (Directed by French Montana and Spiff TV)

I love how ahead of the curve this video was, looking back on this being released nearly 6 years ago. It definitely would be a TikTok trend if it was released in 2022/23.

BEST ARTWORK

Santana - Supernatural

Just really fond childhood memories of digging this album out and playing it in the car with my mom on the way to school or football.

RECENT CAMPAIGN

Wow, been working on Conor's Continued Part II of his world tour which includes 5 dates in Asia and 5 dates in Australia as well as the release of his most recent single and music video 'If I Ever'.

Being independent we've had to build amazing PR, TV and Radio teams globally and seeing it all come together is really enjoyable and definitely keeps me busy ha!

COLLABORATION

KSI x JD Sports in their most recent advert. Fits both brands really well.

HOTTEST RECENT VIDEO

Ouu this is a tough one, I'm going to go with the rest of the world and say Miley Cyrus - Flowers just because of the undertone / deeper meaning with what's going on in her personal life.
