Managing Director
E: jake@bluechiprecords.co.uk
A graduate of the Brit School, multi-talented Jake Carter has
been under the watchful eye of the top music companies for many
years. Writing, producing and performing his own original material,
he has been signed to 3 different managers in his time. With the
major changes in the way music is recorded and delivered in recent
years, this experience had given him a clear vision of how he
could take talented artists and help them succeed in the music
business.
Jake has taken his ideas and now manages Blue Chip Records full
time, bringing his knowledge of working in all music genres to
help locate fresh, aspiring talents. As well as providing his
services as an in-house producer, his years in the industry means
that he knows the right professionals to suit the current project,
whether they are songwriters, musicians, engineers, mixers or
producers. And, of course, the fantastic facilities at Dean Street
Studios, suit his hands on approach to recording and production.

Marketing Director
E: keith@ bluechiprecords.co.uk
Originally from London, Keith now divides his time between Cape
Town, South Africa and Oxford, England. It was whilst living and
working full time in Los Angeles in the late 1990’s that
Keith set up Blue Chip Games to provide unique software solutions
for companies looking to create online casino brands. From a small
3 man start-up team, Blue Chip Games have grown to be a major
player in the online casino industry with a full staff of software
application developers and dedicated customer services technicians.
Using the invaluable knowledge gained from taking a start-up company
to major success, he then set up Blue Chip Sport with hand-picked
employees to address a need in the sports marketing industry.
Keith has great ambitions to project his ideas into the Blue Chip
Record label, as the entertainment industry has been part of his
life for many years with his family being successful in the South
African film industry.
