What Audio Network Does – Services and Licensing

Professional Production Music 

Audio Network specializes in production music - music composed, recorded, and curated specifically for audiovisual use. This music is designed to be easily searchable, high quality, and suitable for licensing across various media formats and platforms. 

Flexible Licensing 

Audio Network licenses tracks per project or video, with subscriptions and licences tailored to cover different types of usage. Licences can cover worldwide usage in perpetuity, meaning once obtained, music can be used indefinitely within the scope of the licence. 

Licences cover the essential rights needed to use music in sync with audiovisual content, typically combining synchronization (sync) rights and master (dubbing) rights, so creators can confidently use tracks without separately clearing each component.  This is a key advantage vs commercial music, where you typically need separate permissions for sync and master rights  

Content Types:

Content Type	How Music Is Used
Television	Background scores; themes; transitions
Film	Soundtracks; scene scoring
Advertising	Brand campaigns; commercials
Online Video	YouTube; social media content
Podcasts	Intro music; background beds
Corporate Video	Internal and marketing content

Genres:
