Music Licensing Information
Thank you for your interest in using my music! All of my songs are original, copyrighted works, and I’m excited to collaborate with creators, businesses, and individuals to bring my music to your projects. Below, you’ll find details on how to request permission to use my music for online or offline purposes.
My Music and Copyright
All of my music is protected by copyrights, meaning any use—whether in videos, films, commercials, live events, or other projects—requires my explicit permission through a licensing agreement. This ensures my work is used respectfully and fairly while supporting my ability to create more music. Using the remix or song selection services on YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok means you're already covered by their terms of service, so no request is needed.
How to Request a License
To use my music, please follow these steps:
Submit the request form at the end of this post.
Review and Agreement: I’ll review your request and propose licensing terms, including any fees
(if applicable). We’ll formalize permission with a simple written agreement to protect both parties.
Final Steps: Upon agreement on terms and payment (if any), you will get a license for the music's
specified use.
Licensing Terms
Non-Commercial Use: For personal, educational, or non-profit projects, I may offer free or low-cost licenses with proper credit (e.g., “Music by SK Murray” in the project). Terms will be outlined in a written agreement.
Commercial Use: For projects generating revenue (e.g., ads, films, monetized videos), licensing fees apply based on the project’s scope, audience, and usage. Fees are negotiable, and I will do my best to work within your budget when possible.
Credit: I typically request attribution (e.g., in video descriptions or credits) to promote my music.
Copyright: I retain full ownership of my music. Licenses are non-exclusive unless otherwise agreed.
Sample Licensing Fees
Non-Commercial Use: Starting at $0–$50, depending on the project.
Commercial Use: Fees vary based on project scope (e.g., $100–$500+ for sync licenses for videos, films, or ads). Contact me for a custom quote.
Royalty Agreements: Available for ongoing use (e.g., streaming or broadcasts) through organizations like ASCAP or BMI.
Unauthorized Use
Using my music without permission is a violation of copyright law. Platforms such as YouTube are regularly monitored for usage and may issue DMCA takedown notices or other actions for unauthorized use. To avoid issues, please request a license before using my music.
