EMI to showcase international talent at Midem 2007
MUMBAI: EMI Music Publishing will showcase a collection of new international talent at the Midem 2007 opening night party on 21 January 2007 in Cannes, France.
Midem and EMI Music Publishing will co-host the party. The evening event, which is one of the highlights of the week for the 10,000 music industry executives who attend Midem, will bring together four bands and artists currently signed to EMI Music Publishing.
This showcase will bring together new Swedish star Mando Diao (EMI Music, Sweden), rising electronica/indie/rock artiste Shiny Toy Guns (Universal/Motown, US), New York-based R’n’B septet Naturally 7 (Festplatte AG-Switzerland –EMI/Virgin, France) and DJ Eric Prydz (Data/Positiva, UK).
EMI Music Publishing president and co-CEO Roger Faxon says, “We hope this evening will remind us all that it is the joy of the music which makes our industry so great. Sometimes we are so bogged down in business details, we forget it’s all about music and musicians, and so we are very pleased to have the opportunity to join with Midem to celebrate the creativity of these talented songwriters and performers.”
Midem director Dominique Leguern says, “EMI Music Publishing’s commitment and dedication to finding new artists from all over the world and helping them build their careers and share their music with us all, is something Midem deeply relates too.”

TLC launches ‘World On My Plate’ with Shipra Khanna
New travel-food series premieres 29 March at 7:00 PM.
MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM. Hosted and curated by the popular chef and television personality, the show blends food, travel and culture through an intimate and immersive lens.
Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect. World On My Plate builds on this by using food as a lens to explore shared traditions across geographies. We’re excited to collaborate with Chef Shipra Khanna, whose perspective brings both depth and relatability to these narratives.”
Shipra Khanna added, “Food has always been my way of connecting with people and understanding cultures. With World On My Plate, I’ve had the opportunity to step into new worlds, learn from incredible individuals, and share stories that go far beyond the plate. This show is very special to me.”
The series promises strong visual storytelling, meaningful interactions and a fresh perspective on global cuisine celebrating flavours alongside the emotions and traditions that shape them.
In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate. Tune in to World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna starting 29 March at 7:00 PM on TLC.
