• Regarding tempo and key changes, please note that audio tolerates pretty well small changes only.
However, the more it derives from the original material, the more audible these changes can become, despite the sophisticated tools we use.
• Customers interested in a 100% original composition are welcome to contact us with a description of the main aspects of their project. We would then send them the rates and deadlines of available composers.
We do not charge anything for this service.
• Music Bay provides royalty-free music for audio-video projects, such as video, film, corporate presentation, TV / radio advertising, Web, slideshow, jingle, apps, video game, YouTube video… and other commercial or personal projects.
• Royalty-free means that only the license purchase is required to use this musical background; no other fees will ever be charged by P.R.O. (Performing Rights Organisation).
• We know that music used for multimedia purposes must be composed in a particular way, so that editing with video is easy and effective. Music should add a big ‘plus’ to the video. In addition to this criterion, we make sure that each and every item in our catalogue is perfect from composition, arrangement, mix and mastering standpoints.
• All composers are among the best specialists in the world in the royalty-free music industry, chosen very rigorously by our team. Their music is used worldwide by the most prestigious brands.
• The variety of genres is also very important for a broad choice for our users. We therefore offer music that covers all possible multimedia projects, such as acoustic folk, epic & cinematic, instrumental pop, ambient, romantic, happy, electro pop, world music, orchestral, Christmas, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, jazz / swing, electro, lounge, rock…
