Intermezzo Music and Media: Focus On Your Content

Intermezzo is a technology services company based in the Netherlands, with support offices in the UK, Italy and Hungary. We offer flexible, sensible and pragmatic solutions managing your content, helping you to stay competitive now and in the future.

We provide solid answers to the three questions most frequently asked by content owners:
• What do I have?
• Where do I have it?
• What can I do with it

In the fast-moving world of music and media, we keep constant track of the latest developments and technologies. This allows us to give you well thought-out advice on how to keep getting the most out of your catalogue. As per our slogan, we truly “Focus On Your Content”.

Everything made to measure in the Intermezzo one-stop-shop

Thanks to our extensive range of flexible, tailor-made services and solutions, Intermezzo provides not only an excellent service level when it comes to content management, but also handles in-house those jobs you would normally need yet another third party for.

At Intermezzo, all your content is stored in a secure and reliable digital archive, with integral metadata management. From this archive, we offer in-house CD mastering and DVD authoring, as well as just about any digital or analogue format transfer you may need.

Our advanced digital hosting and distribution services make your content available to both business partners and consumers. Intermezzo takes care of digitising/encoding, digital storage, distribution (directly to online stores, or via an aggregator) and even subsequent royalty accounting.

To put a finishing touch on things, Intermezzo’s in-house graphic design and video production facilities can help you develop and promote your content, both as a digital and as a physical product.

Economy of scale benefits

Intermezzo currently stores and distributes over 600,000 audio tracks and more than 1000 hours of digital video for its various clients, using an infrastructure designed for world-class reliability and availability. We are continuously expanding and updating our systems, in order to take advantage of improvements in technology and pricing.

Regardless of the size of your catalogue, you will most likely find Intermezzo’s pricing quite attractive, as we pass all economy of scale benefits directly to our customers. Also, you can rest assured that your storage and distribution platform is always up-to-date, without the need for huge investments every time a new technology comes along.

Responding to clients’ needs

Most aggregators are reluctant to share the databases developed and metadata acquired in the process of managing their clients’ content. With Intermezzo, you continue to own your data, and we will supply it to you or your partners whenever you need it. We’d rather keep our customers happy than keep their data.

Intermezzo listens to its clients’ requirements and tries to find the best solution at a mutually agreeable price. For example, one of our clients didn’t quite have the budget to pay up-front for putting their entire catalogue online. A revenue-sharing deal was worked out, and the full value of the content was exploited successfully.
