Bennett Media Broadens Catalogue

LOS ANGELES, October 9: Adding to its third-party fare,
Bennett Media Worldwide has picked up Intensi-T, a music variety series from producer/DJ Mickey Oliver.

The 10×30-minute series, focused on house music, combines
live DJ performances, comedy sketches and choreographed dance routines. Oliver
writes, composes and produces all of the music in Intensi-T.

“Electronic music is creeping into our mainstream culture
and it’s time we pay attention,” said Paul Rich, the CEO of Bennett Media. “We
are happy to have gone into a distribution agreement with one of the top DJ’s
in the field, and look forward to spreading his talent across the globe.”

The new series adds to Bennett’s slate of acquired programs,
which includes Billionaires Car Club, Stag, Destination X, Flow, Bikini
USA and International Kite
Boarding. Bennett will bring a total of 40
hours of new programming to MIPCOM, where it will also debut DNA of
Sport, a co-production with Red Bull.
