About Me

Carl M Cox is an English designer, writer and record producer. He is the creative and managing director of a small independent media group called Prolific Media Group (or PMG for short) and in addition to being an A&R (artist and repertoire) executive for the group, writes songs and produces music with his production partners, Nathan Thomas and Steen Ulrich. Carl, who describes himself as being completely obsessed with pop music, is a member of the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers & Authors (BASCA)- an organisation which campaigns politically on behalf of all songwriters in the UK and hosts the highly prestigious annual Ivor Novello Awards.

Carl has been involved in the media for over thirteen years working for a variety of people and organisations including, The Walt Disney Company, Virgin Group, BBC, Pete Waterman, Sony Music and many others. His prominence within the music industry began to rise in 2005 following a stint at Pete Waterman’s PWL Radio and co-writing songs with Boney M’s Frank Farian and Lotte Aaggard- one half of the Danish team behind Aqua.

In addition to working with world renowned producer Pete Hammond, in 2008 Carl co-produced music for West End star and winner of ITV’s ‘Grease Is The Word’, Danny Bayne, X-Factor’s Sinitta and the new album of enigmatic disco legend, Amanda Lear.

2009 has saw Carl working with former Page 3 stunner Samantha Fox, compiling her new 'Greatest Hits' album as well as teaming up with Pete Hammond once more, to produce a new version of her classic 80's hit, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now".

Carl's label, PMG Music is releasing Sinitta's album with Cherry Red Records followed by Samantha Fox's album which is being released with Sony Music. PMG Music has also just signed uprising dance star, Kash (who's a contender for 2010's Eurovision Song Contest) and is releasing his debut single with dance label Energise Records.


This in addition to a couple of projects for TV with CBS News' “Mr. Showbiz”, Neil Sean.
