Gustafsson has received the Producer Of The Year award from the Swedish Grammis.

Zelig Music is the publishing arm of Ronson’s Zelig Records, which is a co-venture with Sony Music.
The label has signed King Princess, Eli, Tiberius b, Raissa, and Issy Wood.
What they said:
Pulse Music Group co-CEO Josh Abraham: “Mark is an exceptional partner that knows how to cultivate culture-defining moments for songwriters, producers, and artists. He has a lot of integrity, creativity, and is effective in the way that he works to build the careers for others. Working together to help launch the next generation of talent, our JV platform provides a creative community that these songwriters/producers will thrive in. We’re thrilled to be in partnership with Zelig and to welcome Becky And The Birds to the Pulse Music Group / Zelig Music family.”
Ronson: “I’m so in admiration of what Pulse has built. And I’ve been a fan of Josh as a producer since I was a teen. I’m so excited to discover and develop some incredible talent together. Becky And The Birds couldn’t be a better artist/producer example to start with.”
