Services

Sync & Licensing

Creative sync meets full-service licensing. 
We pitch your music, place it where it fits best, and handle everything from deal negotiation and contract management to global rights administration.

For Artists & Composers 
We actively pitch your music for use in film, TV, advertising, games, and more. We handle negotiations with licensees, clear rights, and manage all contracts. Additionally, we connect composers with scoring opportunities across media, from short ads to full-length features. 

For Film, TV & Advertising Professionals 
We offer a curated, easily clearable catalogue of high-quality music ready to license — with expert support to help you find the perfect track quickly. Need something custom? We collaborate with a network of composers who deliver tailor-made scores and edits, on time and on brief.
