Looking for music for your next video?
If
you are considering producing a video, network or cable television
program, Power Music can provide you with quality fitness music at
reasonable prices without the runaround you can expect from licensing
Top 40 popular music. Many of our customers assume that since they
have purchased a Power Music cassette or CD, it would be available
to use as background music for their production. By law, one must
obtain two licenses from two different sources for each song used on
any video
regardless of the nature of the video.
- The first license, the Master Use
License, permits the use of the actual sound recording of a song. This
is obtained from the company owning the master, which
in most cases is the record company.
- The second license is called a Synchronization License and is obtained from
the publisher of the song. The publisher represents the composers and authors
of the song, and the record company represents the artists and producers. Power
Music secures the right to manufacture cassettes and CDs from the record company
and publisher but does not secure the right to synchronize music with visual
images. This is the responsibility of the producer and/or manufacturer of the
production.
If
you were to try to secure rights for Top 40 or popular music,
you could expect a number of problems. Over the years our
writers and producers have created hundreds of songs that are
available for video license. Since we own the recordings and the
compositions,
we can grant you the license to manufacture videos with music
from our catalog. Power Music has not only taken all of the hassles
out
of music licensing but has also given you a number of pricing
options to fit your budget.
