The Brazilian Association of Record Producers – ABPD, created in April 1958, was renamed Pró-Música Brasil (Produtores Fonográfico Associados) in 2016.
The trade org represents both major and independent recorded music companies in Brazil, and is an official affiliate of the IFPI.
Pró-Música Brasil is dedicated to representing the common interests of phonographic producers in general, promoting the legitimate market for recorded music in physical or digital media.
In addition, Pró-Música Brasil is the only entity in Brazil that regularly collects data and statistics from its main members, to maintain a database and disseminate statistics on the Brazilian phonographic market over the last decades to the press and the public.
Pró-Música Brasil is further responsible for issuing “Gold”, “Platinum” and “Diamond” certificates, which allow its members to give public recognition to their artists who have achieved significant sales levels in any format.Music ComeOn
