etc.

WHAT IS A STANDARD CUE LENGTH? No bad on anyone’s part 🙂 I forgot to mention that it was obvious that they edited those longer edits from the full length tracks which is why i say I’m glad I submit long tracks, or maybe I have to get better at my own edits 🙂 And yes , like most, I do take pride, have obsessive passion for music regardless of genre, style or end game and just plain ol love what I’m doing MUSIC LIBRARY REPORT Music Library Report was born out of the ideas and conversations on the FMPro list (now defunct).

CONSULTATION

I get a number of requests for advice, questions and help in navigating the morass of music libraries. It would be nice to be able to individually help everyone but the truth is I’d rather be writing music! Still, if you are interested, my rate is $150 per hour with a one hour minimum, payable Read more → LINKS - MUSICLIBRARYREPORT Merchants AG Watermark Generator – A great time saver that I use constantly and a must have for every composer. 15% off for MLR Subscribers, use coupon code: V2MLR15off Desktop Metronome Music Creators 51 Miles Away AbcRoyaltyFreeMusic Andrew Hewitt Art And Robin’s Music Music Boyan Mladenov Bruce Swanson – Bass Man Can Do Musos Clive Read more →

FORUMS ARCHIVE

A new forum to discuss missing and incorrect cue sheets. Much of a composer's income relies on the correct information on a cue sheet, as well as filing it with the PROs.

TESTIMONIALS

Hey everyone, Over the ten years MLR has been in existence I have received a lot of feedback on how valuable it has been to composers. It goes without saying that I have learned as much as anyone from the collective knowledge we all share. So, I thought it might be time to start a Read more → MUSIC LICENSING QUIZ How well do you know the “Business” of Music? Take this music licensing quiz and test your knowledge of Music Licenses. MusicLibraryReport.com is run by PUBLISHERS WITH BOTH ASCAP AND BMI? It boils down to this: When filling out a cue sheet in the US, each writer needs a publisher that has the same PRO. (Unlike with APRA in Oz / NZ where a composer doesn’t need a publisher and can automatically collect both sides of the royalties) WHEN CREATING A WORK... When creating a work with BMI that you put on certain music libraries, what do you register it as? As a work intended for Music Libraries, TV, or Film? I usually go with TV but am not sure if that's what I'm supposed to do. When I register it as a library track, it says Read

FILING CUE SHEETS

x Bookmark So, I have a big hole in my education when it comes to filing cue sheets. Recently a company in Ireland licensed a piece of music for a commercial to be aired in Ireland. This was through Audiosparx (AS) and AS did send me the track usage info and cue sheet. I know Read more →

MORNING PAGES!

by Robin Munson

Years ago, when I was going through a dry spell as a songwriter, I stumbled upon a book by Julia Cameron called The Artist’s Way. It is a 12-step program for recovering artists. This book gave me some very practical tools for opening my (sometimes blocked) creative channels. For a long time, it was my “bible”, and the exercises in the book were very helpful. I believe it is still in print and is readily available on-line, in bookstores, or in libraries.

THE MUSIC INDUSTRY’S INCONVENIENT TRUTH

by Paul Gelsomine

It’s no big secret that the music industry is a tough business to be in. As we quickly move through the digital landscape, seeing the slow death of physical product among other opportunities, the whole Music Industry game continues to be constantly shifting. Gone are the days where composers would receive huge cash advances. There’s also the feeling that technology platforms are disrupting the music business. Some claim they are improving the game, while others say they are taking money away from the creators. The vast majority of educational content being spewed out about the music industry works under the assumption that there is only one viable path forward. Many believe companies writing this material, are trying to attract future independent content providers as customers.
