Ok, so I don’t know anything about this fellow, other than what is available online. Unfortunately, that’s not much. He is, apparently, a “creative account manager” or, as they were called in the old days, an agent.

I hit upon his name when I read a blog connected with the Glastonbury Festival held in Pilton, Somerset (southwest England). This festival features a variety of music, from rock, alternative rock and indie rock to hip-hop, reggae and electronic.

Runewitsch is spreading the word about some of the projects he is working on or interested in and making an effort to hook up with like-minded folks. The crowd at Glastonbury seems as if it would be a ripe proving ground for a budding creative account manager.

According to his information, a project called Hidden Depths is attracting such indie and alternative names as “Warp records, Dj Yoda, Luke Vibert, Jarvis Cocker, Arctic Monkeys.” The focus seems to be on small venues, one of which was Soho Revue Bar. (The Propellerheads showed their stuff their.)

The Glastonbury was the scene of some serious Liverpool-area work. Some of the reviewers thought The Wombats were one of the best attractions at the 2008 festival, which attracted 170,000 people by some reports. There were some “bigger” names there, such as The Verve. It would only make sense that Runewitsch would try to hook up with some of the managers, acts and listeners at the Glastonbury. Maybe he’ll become one of those established “creative account managers” that really does something good for the up-and-coming.
