BTS’s Producer EL CAPITXN Reportedly Ventures On New Career Path
The popular HYBE producer EL CAPITXN, best known for his landmark works with BTS (like “Ddaeng,” “Take Two,” and “Daechwita”), has made a milestone career shift with his new management company.
According to reports on May 5, KST, the producer will officially start managing talents at the agency Venders Production, which he founded. His management will be focused on composers, but he will also oversee album production. In this new role, his focus is to nurture musicians who are relatively overlooked amidst the global reach of K-Pop. His job would be to enhance the capabilities of promising writers in a healthy working environment.
Venders Production, as a music production studio, has been active for a really long time. The company’s Instagram was launched in 2018, but it seems that EL CAPITXN will officially start actively participating in management only now. The studio has already worked on some monumental K-Pop albums in different capacities. For example, it is credited on Sunmi’s “Noir” for the guitar,

As a producer, apart from BTS, EL CAPITXN has also worked with K-Pop bigwigs like IU, TXT, ZEROBASEONE, and ENHYPEN, to name a few. But with Venders Production, he plans to release an album soon, which is expected to feature artists from Korea and overseas.
Venders will reportedly work with the professional management company Kanverse to manage its talent. Kanverse is also the management agency of popular singers like Paul Kim and Choi Daniel.
Meanwhile, EL CAPITXN is also scheduled to appear as a DJ at the Ultra Music Festival on June 9, KST. This will be his first time playing on the festival’s main stage under his name.
