Bucks Music Group has signed house DJ Lenny Fontana to a worldwide exclusive songwriting deal.
Fontana began DJing professionally in the mid-1980s and became the first US DJ to play at Pacha Ibiza and in Dubai in 1991. In 1999, he had his first crossover hit with What You Need, under the name Powerhouse feat. Duane Harden, which was a UK Top 10 hit.
Fontana founded Karmic Power Records in 2013, enjoying success alongside D-Train with Raise Your Hands in 2015, as well as with follow-up single When You Feel What Love Has in 2016 and 2017.
Bucks Music Group MD Simon Platz said: "Lenny is a legend in his genre with a long, hit-laden history in the business. It's a pleasure to be able to bring someone of his calibre to Bucks."
