Reports confirm that Afrojack has parted with his manager of three years, Hugo Langras, owner of Dutch management firm Montana ECI.

Citing ‘ethical and moral disagreements’, the split happened over a month ago with no official public statements being made by either parties till now.

The company released the following statement on the matter:
“I can confirm that Nick wants to part ways with Montana ECI BV. Nick and I have had a very pleasant and extremely successful relationship for the last six years. Since we have several agreements in place that were closed with an eye to continuing this relationship for many more years, actually arranging this departure is complex. Our lawyers are working on a solution. I do not want to harm this process, so all I am willing to say is that I categorically deny that we had any moral or ethical disagreements. We have a business dispute. As Nick states himself, he wants to leave Montana ECI to try and do his own management and has started a firm which is involved in the same business as Montana ECI. I wish him all the best with his efforts. He is an amazing talent and a true visionary and I am certain he will be very successful. I am confident we will find a way to separate as friends.”

Afrojack has reportedly been putting together his own team, building up his own company.
“I already set up my own back office, so there’s a group of great people around me that are helping out with social media, financial and legal stuff,… I’m really focused right now to create what I feel is necessary from a company standing by an artist and artist needs.”

Afrojack also hopes to use his influence to bring about young artist development especially the artists he personally supports by giving them supporting roles on his tours.
“It’s really good to be able to give the experience that I have to other artists, and where there are questions to actually given them answers. Because when I started and I had questions, there were never answers.”

Best of luck to Nick on his future endeavours!
