Licensing Tip By The Bomb Music Service: Do Your Homework

No music supervisor wants to be asked what they are working on. Go check out IMDB to see what they have worked on recently or what projects are coming up. Watch the shows, study the sound and then evaluate your catalog and really try to think about what lyrically and musically makes sense for the project. NEVER let your art fall on deaf ears and if they need what you are pitching they will LISTEN! Same with Ad agencies, check out what brands they work with, watch what kind of campaigns those brands have done in the past and what kind of music they favour. Find the decision makers and account managers and send them ZIPLINKS – NEVER MP3s that will clog up their servers! Align the stars for yourself and empower YOUR music machine!!
