I like the fact that AJ mentioned future hits because I write from my likes, creativity. I don't like when libraries ask who do you sound like. I sound like me, I don't want to mimic anyone.

Awesome content! I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel. I'm an example of someone who has worn themselves out trying to get sync on his own. It's painfully grueling.....and I'm completely unsuccessful.

@shamus6608 3 года назад

Awesome!! Thankyou AJ and Jesse

@terryroberts2598 2 года назад

I would have liked to know if AJ would consider instrumentals... I know a lot of sync doesn't want vocals, and that a lot of what Sync My Music shows doesn't usually deal with vocal production... but doesn't that run in the face of the Holy Trinity? It would be interesting to know if instrumentals are an option... especially for a songwriter who can't sing...

Hey Jesse! Quick review: Yes, please keep doing the podcast. I really enjoy each and every one of them and I take some serious advice with‘em. Best Andy by the way: RU-vid isn‘t adfree since the last few years but your content is even worth minutes of advertisement. Also I can listen to licensed tracks in that short amount of time. ;)

so do they take songs that have already been released on spotify or have to be unreleased?

@lawrencebodien1487 3 года назад

Thank You for this podcast. Your crystallization of ?'s and idea's I believe we all need. I believe that CLEERKUT ROYALTY has a very good platform for cuts and splits that are then registered. I have been working with licensing since last spring, there is plenty to do, and learn. What to place emphasis on is a mystery. Lastly, personal feedback seems hard to find.

@renahere1885 2 года назад

Wondering about A.J's agreements with his writers; been seeing Sync libraries that, rather than getting a percentage for the sync they negotiate, they are placing themselves as composers of the songs and setting themselves up to collect all the backend money with the "Pros"... It's sort of a frightening & frustrating chore to have trustworthy representation. ... I appreciate AJ's knowledge & your good questions. 👍

@SyncMyMusic 2 года назад

Which Libraires are doing that?

@Ahmad-Mounir44 2 года назад

Hey Jesse, do you have any idea how to get into Source Audio? Many music libraries are using it as tracks catalog but it doesn't seem to let me in. I created an account and their response that they will review the account but when they got back to me they informed me that my account is declined. What does this mean? Future hits also uses SA

@SyncMyMusic 2 года назад

Source Audio is not a Library - it's a music hosting service for Libraries to use to shop their catalogues to their clients. You likely got declined because you're not a Library.

@Ahmad-Mounir44 2 года назад

@@SyncMyMusic thanks Jesse do you know how do composers submit in these libraries? They don't have an upload method like Crucial Music for instance

@SyncMyMusic 2 года назад

@edwardadzima4916 3 года назад

OK, what I mean is if I write a song and it is not what's hip on today's charts, can I write something that sounds like no one in particular and not what's popular, but still be acceptable in sync licensing?

@SyncMyMusic 3 года назад

Yes, but for this interview we're only talking about the needs of his Music Library. There are TONS of companies out there that will take music that doesn't sound like top 40 songs.

@edwardadzima4916 3 года назад

@@SyncMyMusic I listened to a number of tracks on his site and there is a lot of jazz, blues, and a few other genres.

@edwardadzima4916 3 года назад

Top 50 charts as mentioned but what about focusing on TV , Films, and trailers that aren't "hits".

@SyncMyMusic 3 года назад

I'm not sure what you mean. Can you rephrase the question?

@TreyGold 3 года назад

What about artists that don't make beats...isn't there a catch if u don't make the beat? Even though u have permission.

@SyncMyMusic 3 года назад

You need to be able to create recorded music in order to parter with Libraries.

@BatistaInvests 3 месяца назад

Why would ANYONE write a song without the goal of it being "the very best song ever made"?

@SyncMyMusic 3 месяца назад

Because that kind of thinking is called perfectionism. It can seriously hinder our ability to just continue to finish a song even if it’s not the “best” song ever written.
