12 Websites Where Musicians Can Pitch Their Music to Producers

Posted on : 14-01-2009 | By : admin | In : Composer Tips


There are lots of royalty free music sites out there to submit your music to but there are more and more sites appearing that actually pitch your music to certain projects and producers for free or for a fee. There are also a few crowd-sourcing / collaboration type sites here.
These sites are distinctly different from the free-for-all type sites like productiontrax, audiojungle and audiosparx and might be an interesting addition to your search for outlets for your production music.

    Hi @Ben,
    Can you explain a little more about your site?
    What are the terms you are offering your contributors?
    Do you actively seek and negotiate with music supervisors or is the site simply a place to upload music in hopes that people find the site.

    This subject of this thread is for placement of music directly into projects negotiated on the part of the website and not really for the average online music distribution type sites.
  • Ben
    Matchless Music (http://www.matchlessmusic.net) specializes in indie music licensing. The majority of our artists are recording/touring indie musicians. We help them get their music placed in television, film, video games, commercials and the web. Artists can submit music directly on the website.

    Hi Shawn, your website is very secretive! Do you primarily seek license fees from your catalog, or are you more interested in performance royalties?

    Thanks,

    Mark
  • Great link...

    I've also looked at Humtoo's contract... "you grant to us an exclusive licence throughout the world and for the Publishing Period (defined below) to exercise all rights of copyright in any and all of your Uploaded Works"

    I don't like the idea of granting them an "exclusive license" to exploit copyright in my music so will be keeping away from them...

    There are no fees to sign up and opportunities to learn and grow online. Projects range from small budgets to 5 figure scoring budgets and we have 4 composer membership levels, so most composers will find a place with our company.

    skyjuice127 :

    Humtoo will administer the publishing in all tracks uploaded to the site for a period of 5 years after which you can opt any of your tracks out by writing to us. You retain ownership of your music. We will take the standard 50% of broadcast royalties only - any fees, sync or reproduction royalties earned by your music are 100% yours.


    Does this mean they want exclusive publishing rights to upoladed tracks for five years?


    If so hmmm think carefully kids before you upload.




    Yeah, this one is a bit ambiguous.
    They administer publishing just by uploading? Does this mean even if your track isn't used in the project they still administer publishing?
    They take 50% of broadcast royalties is vague. 50% of publishing or 50% publishing and writers or 50% of writers and all of publishing?

    Sounds like they give you the licensing fees and take 50% of your writer's credit and all of the publishing for 5 years.

    I agree with skyjuice, sounds like a funky deal if that is the case.

    Also think very carefully before you pay upfont fees for having someone critique your music. I smell a scam.

    Taxi

    Paid yearly subscription of $300 + submission fees.....yeah right, only if you are A gullible or B have more money than sense.

    Pump Audio

    OK but make sure your masters are good otherwise they may reject your CD

    Youlicense.

    I use them, so far so good.

    Musicdealers

    Just signed up with them so the jury is still out

    This is mainly a list for websites where composers can go and submit their music to producers.
    Does 300monks allow composers to submit their music or do you only work with your current roster of composers?
    Please post a link to where composers can submit their music if you allow this.
    Thanks,
    Mark
  • the head monk
    This is a great list - thanks for posting.

    There's also a site called 300 Monks. I started this in 2004 and offers high quality music for licensing to producers as well. We also do a fair amount of custom scoring from our roster of composers.
