You can stream our music in any business, legally without a PRS PPL Music Licence. What’s more, we’ll even email you a certificate that you can pass on to PRS PPL if you need it.
We’re an established provider of royalty-free music. That’s music you can play in your business without the need to pay PRS PPL for a music licence. You can do this because the PRS and PPL do not collect royalties for the music we supply.
Background Sounds – Music You Can Play Without a PRS PPL Music Licence
Our music comes from an international music licensing agency. They work with musicians from all around the world who choose to be paid through them rather than PRS PPL.
Artists choose to do this because music licensing agencies offer them more ways to make money from their music. Ways such as sync licensing (background music for video games, YouTube and commercials). Along with helping them to get their music played in businesses such as yours.
Informing PRS PPL
When you use our service you can notify PRS and PPL that you are now playing royalty-free music. They may request evidence. If this happens let us know and we’ll email you a certificate confirming your subscription.
