What the sources say about these ties
- Universal Music Group owns
- Wikipedia describes EMI Records as a British record label owned by Universal Music Group, revived in June 2020 as the successor to Virgin EMI

About this product
Aerial is the eighth album by English singer-songwriter Kate Bush, a double album released in 2005, twelve years after The Red Shoes.[4] This barcode is the original European double CD on EMI, catalogue number 0946 3 43960 2 8, in a tri-fold card sleeve with a 24-page booklet; Kate Bush trading as Noble and Brite owns the recordings, issued under exclusive licence to EMI Records Ltd.[5] Its first disc, A Sea of Honey, opens with the single "King of the Mountain"; the second holds the nine-part suite A Sky of Honey.[5][4] MusicBrainz dates it to 3 November 2005 in Germany and 7 November in the United Kingdom.[1]
The discs were pressed by Mediamotion in the Netherlands.[5] The same barcode appears on a Canadian pressing by EMI Music Canada,[2] an Argentine promotional issue[6] and a Ukrainian licensed pressing in a double jewel case.[3]
